Damus recommends relay sets, will soon effectively default/auto-pilot relays.
Where this devolves to is most of user base will have no concept of relays, “I’ve got my client and there’s some backend something out there cool I’m on nostr f the system” - but which devolves into every other standard social platform out there.
Yes we have “portable” identities but I’m not sure portable keys model saves you here … for all intents and purposes.
The nostr vision as I initially read it was relay-centric. This seems to go the opposite way entirely.
Maybe I’m overstating all this.
But we’re in prime early phase here and this seems the time to really embrace the core nostr model not hide it all.
