Both can and do exist. But only one of these protocols was built on the principle that nobody gets to tell you you don't belong here. So I'll keep pushing back when someone tries to convince people they made a mistake by finding this place. Not because I hate Pubky. Because I love what Nostr represents for people who've been told they're not welcome everywhere else. We can all build. We can all win. And you’re right that we don't have to tear each other down to do it.

I don't enjoy being shit-talked by devs.. No one does. It only worked for so long, because their abilities supposedly enabled our abuse, but now there is AI and this will not stand any longer. Basically, if you're (they're) gonna lash out about how stupid bitcoiners are, or how stupid people building on nostr are, well the odds of me joining their cause plummet. I'm an integrator, a builder, a collaborator that also (shocker) can code. And I hate dealing with assholes despite it being so common in the industry. I will cheer when AI and 'stupid' but working code replaces all of them and they can just troll to a blank audience and struggle to survive in this new world where being a dick is no longer rewarded behavior.
