Bluesky only works with Bluesky's own code. Thanks for reading my paper.

The Bluesky team has an academic paper describing the protocol that’s a pretty good high level but somewhat technical overview. It includes how they see Bluesky compares to Secure Scuttlebutt, Nostr, Farcaster, and ActivityPub/Mastodon. I think folks who are building Nostr apps or advocating for it in comparison to Bluesky would do well to read it to understand what they’re doing and how we’re different. We should also write up one for Nostr. https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.03239

🤣🤣🤣. You all really do need me then. FINE … where is the meetup & I’ll schedule & do it 🫂🫂🫂
We’ve submitted a proposal to an international society to organize a conference on decentralized social networks, with Nostr as the main topic. Fortunately, the proposal has been approved, and we’re now working out the details. I’m actively trying to align the conference dates and location with next year’s Nostr events. The goal is to introduce Nostr to academics and promote further research. Hope everything goes well.

this is very interesting I'd love to know more about it! Also keen on doing academic work related to Nostr.
