no, i'm talking about much simpler to parse data formats than all these retarded new things, JSON is just really messy and very often javascript programmers violate the requirements for static typing and in my Go code i am forced to do dozens of type assertions based on field string values, which can end up being hundreds of lines of code for their retarded "convenient" "flexible" data structure (just had to deal with this in my job, cost me about 10 hours of work implementing it so far)

have you ever read the raw data of an email?

can you tell me what justification there is for making nostr events more complicated than emails?

though i am sure it would pain them these clowns i speak of could actually write a parser for a text format like email...

it would take me, in contrast to the inordinate amount of type voodoo caused by javascript buffoons less time to write the whole parser that could work with a more logically structured, simple text format
