Your criticism of Scuttlebutt is only partially valid, don't you think?

The scaling problem is undeniable.

The identity/key compromised scenario OTOH seems effectively the same as with nostr.

When your key is nsec is compromised, an attacker can continue to push notes to relays forever, can't they.

To continue with another identity, a SSB user would have to create a backup identity BEFORE being compromised and publish that through the primary identity (then every peer can check that out and start following the backup identity) .. and then use it in case of primary identity compromised.
Not different from what you'd do with Nostr, right.
