one of the things that excited me about nostr at first was never having to learn the intricacies of a retarded proprietary APIs again
Discussion
I didn't realize Nostr was a solution to this first, but I also always hated having to learn these things over and over.
It’s even cooler than not having to learn stupid APIs designed by idiots
Nostr allows you to broadcast a requirement and let suppliers come to you
No proprietary APIs
No dependency on a single-provider
No vendor lock-in because you don’t have to be married from the get go to any one in particular
It’s wild.
You still need a standard for the format of what you're broadcasting and the format of the response though.
