💯 My main thing I like to complain about is media. Lack of optimization makes Nostr perform badly and use huge amounts of bandwidth it doesn't have to. Images & video on Nostr need a lot of love.

That's the reason it took me three times to stick around. And honestly, shit is still broken most of the time.

Nostr's architecture was suboptimal and I think it's now too difficult to fix. Kademlia-type (XOR) implementations like pubky.app are the way forward. Maybe try building something on Pubky.
