So you can discover friends of friends by their follow lists you already have access to. That is not organic discovery. Again, the 99% using Synonym Nexus precisely because personal crawling is a pipe...

Everything is on the DHT so can't you just have your own indexer/aggregator? Like sure even if the Nexus phones home and can filter stuff, what's stopping someone from forking and making their own for use with a client?

Yes, the nexus can act as a point of censorship, but so can any Nostr client too, they just need to filter certain pubkeys or content or whatever.

Even if the flagship Pubky app is censored to shit, you can still use other clients with other independent indexers, no?

Please let me know your thoughts :)

You could, sure. But nobody is, nobody has, nobody plans to from what I can tell. I'd genuinely love to see one.
