People always tell me they come back to damus because it’s reliable. There’s a reason it’s reliable, it’s exactly because I don’t have many centralized integrations. The only main one is nostr.build, and it’s the most complained about thing when it goes down or when users hit the upload limit.

If i didn’t have these principles then damus wouldn’t be damus. People can say i’m not listening to users (which is not true), i am just not going to make damus more brittle over time. My goal is that it will keep working even after I’m dead, even with noone around to maintain it.

I respect the principles 🫂

Reliability is definitely one of the primary reasons I use Damus too. That and I like the design.

The brightest stars burn fastest. Its not always about moving fast and breaking things, especially if you want to stick around for a while.
