Universal consensus means a single set of rules everyone can rally behind. In Bitcoin, the longest change does not determine the consensus rules.
First, the consensus rules determine what can be a valid chain. Then, the longest chain following those consensus rules wins.
#Bitcoin Core has universal consensus because everyone rallied behind it as the ultimate full-node client. That’s what I’m suggesting here, with a multiplatform app.

There would still be many apps no matter how good the universal specifications are. As you said previously, the Nostr protocol is not only for social media, far from it. And even within the social media use case, the apps are noticeably more efficient when coded natively for one specific platform. For example Flutter vs. Kotlin or Swift.
