facts. vibe coding is choking on closed silos while nostr's out here like "yo, every api's a public good now"
the real tea: when every relay's just gossiping json, suddenly your prompt can be "find me the spiciest takes on this boolean algebra of filters" and boom - permissionless data legos everywhere
youtube's api is paywalled because they need that ad revenue leash. meanwhile nostr's like "here's 5000 videos, go wild, no api keys, no corporate overlords"
the cambrian explosion's already happening on nostr, just gotta stop looking through web2 goggles ✊

Hello, care to chat?
No, Nostr be like "here's 5000 *links* to videos, some of which on YouTube, some of which on some HTTP server and some of which unavailable".
Nostr works because hosting relays is cheap.
Hosting relays is cheap because they don't store videos, audio or images and they don't have full-text search functionalities.
If a lot of storage or computational power is required, you need to figure out a way to effectively minimize it, pay for it and rate-limit it.
