i don't know who needs to hear this right now but read and respect the NIPs, don't blindly copy other people's code. all nostr clients need to be interoperable and the spec we agreed upon is on the NIPs. there are mistakes, bugs and leftovers from experimentation in some clients.

Because everyone would simply like to prove the efficiency of their app.. Not the operability of Nostr protocol.. And so, relays are monetized & bugs laying over users interoperability with client or lack of professionalism in Nostr client building… NIP’s are a hoax to attract users’s attention. So as to fool them.. Enough pleasures, rotten ideology!
View quoted note → I'll add to this: stop trying to fix other people's clients on your code. That is the road to protocol bloat and death. Don't trade away the simplicity of Nostr in order to get 0.001% better UX for your users or we will all lose in the end. If you see that some client is doing something wrong, try talking to them, or bring it up on Nostr, that benefits everybody.
How often are client devs all meeting together to work on Nostr? Do you all meet like one a month on Nostr Nests or anything like that?
Respec muh authority! Bro tell that to Damus or Amethyst. Loads of things they do contrary to existing NIPs, then their thing becomes the new standard cause other clients implement it as well to be compatible with the big boys.
