By the way, if the future of Nostr relays are many many small relays, then the architecture of (Personal Datastores + Indexers/aggregators) is vindicated.

Which is good, many many apps don't need any aggregators or indexers, for example 1-on-1 or small chat rooms, blogs, stores etc.

This is where #Pkarr will really shine, if you want to make a censorship resistant web, then first recognize that most of the web isn't a timeline, in fact, the death of social media might be the best thing that ever happens for the health of the Internet.

It is time to pay attention to efforts like #Earthstar and #Nosdav etc. Or build something else that have enough features to enable almost anything with sufficient control and privacy.

It would be super exciting if this is the age of open web enabled by Bitcoin, first because it popularized mnemonic seeds and key management, but also because it proved that the world is full of mercenaries willing to be your cloud providers without political agenda, and finally because it will make it feasible to pay these folks without permission.

I hope, few years from now, we are all bloggers and digital gardeners again.
