Been writing my thoughts and reflections down more recently to work my brain outside of coding, reading, and training. Finished my first essay in quite some time: https://calva.fyi/thoughts/posts/nos...

This should have been published as a longform nostr note... this is essentially my feedback for you. I agree with you on some points, namely that nostr development spent way too much energy on kind1 clients, which, IMHO, are the lowest signal feed.

Nostr is excellent for discoverability. I searched high and low for this article after I heard @Eric FJ 🪬⚡️ mention it on his pod. If you share it as a long form nostr note I can feature it on the localbitcoiners.com website https://localbitcoiners.com/feeds#articles

I also disagree with the idea of shilling an app without the user understanding that the data layer in the app is interoperable across the nostr ecosystem. It may not seem like such a benefit now, but nostr is in its infancy.

The more data that ends up on nostr the more we can build awesome clients around that data. I'm sure you agree on the NIP-99 stuff, so why not also with NIP-23 (longform)?

Nostr's focus on kind1 clients is misguided, diverting resources from more robust solutions, much like the Fed's misguided QE policies.
