What you think about the protocol and it’s future? Currently it’s mostly inhabited by BTC fans but the idea itself seems much better than what Mastodon/Lemmy is doing

#Nostr: https://nostr.com

    Can you elaborate on how the Nostr protocol seems better than ActivityPub? Do you mean it in terms of privacy?

    I don’t know much about the underlying backend of Nostr, just that when I tried the platform, like you said, full of BTC stuff without any meaningful content of interaction.

    I think its a much better way of managing account credentials. basically there are no accounts. Just identities. The servers are just repeaters but they could also handle moderation. I wish the fediverse incorporated this concept for handling accounts/identities.
