I wouldn’t say it’s consensus. It’s just an idea at this point. My approach right now is:

1. Learn the protocol to see what can be learned

2. See if it makes sense to apply some of their techniques on the nostr side

3. If not, investigate ways to make it easier to integrate into apps, nostr or not. Having a multiplatform simplexclient would still be cool on its own. If I can integrate that into my desktop client that would be neat.

I would love an advanced async communication tool that has public and private use cases. I don’t think you need to use nostr for everything. Use the right tool for the job!
