I like the idea of DHT getting around the need for DNS. At least if I understand what proponents of the system have said on nostr, but having not read the docs, I can't really speak on it.

My loose understanding is that some of this is already being worked on with Nostr by several people.
I thought so too, but I had lost track of the project.
Sames. We have too many 🤣 nostr:nprofile1qqs9pk20ctv9srrg9vr354p03v0rrgsqkpggh2u45va77zz4mu5p6ccpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9thwden5te0dehhxarj9ehhsarj9ejx2a30qyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnddakj7xph5zr perhaps remembers. He used to share it I believe.
You analyzed it correctly. Makes every npub a censorship-resistant dns so you can own a piece of the internet.
Where nostr is 6 nodes #pubky is 6 million.
The two systems can work together but pubky is working now. Nostr could integrate it. It might take a day, it might take a year, but it wont take 10 years.
Users get 10x or 100x more options. So some are adopting early.
It'll take days, once someone takes on the task. It's an impressively simple solution 😏
A Free as in freedom alternative to DNS is as worthy for development as the relay itself.
