Figured I’d share this since I saw it.

The nostr relay thing does seem a bit… off to me. Not sure what really makes nostr better than here… Unless what we really want is a twitter experiance. Which I, of course, do not.

    1. Oh, I’m in no way defending fediverse. It’s neat, technically, but it’s ripe for abuse from inside and out. As for DNS, I wonder if there’s a reasonable way to get around that for ActivityPub.

    2. Okay, that’s neat. I should look into this indepth. I’m currious how data is copied around without overloading nodes. It seems like it may also have the problem of some people don’t see some comments on a specific post, which leads to confusing conversations, but I haven’t run into that yet as I have on Mastodon. But with Mastondon is was a matter of instances being blocked, this just seems like we may be missing parts of the conversation, kinda like on SSB if there are two groups of people who only have some of the data.

    EDIT: My post counts from 1. to 2., but I wrote 1. and then 3… Whatever. The second part is ment to target the end of your reply.

      I don’t fully understand how all that works. I know there is some nips about finding out where users usually post stuff too. But i have noticed in some clients i’ll see stuff in chat thats not in other’s because the relays are different.

      That is just the trade off you get for decentralization though
