Nostr Web Client

I don’t believe so. Under AT, the user maintains their own Personal Data Repository.

While an application could deplatform you, the data would not be deleted.

At this point, the user could just login to a competing application and all of their data (identity, posts, comments, likes etc) would still be there.

Suspect there will be applications that do not comply with US takedown requests etc.

Agreed, I'm just not assuming the legacy platforms are a reliable source for the data to go, hence still needing a nostr type route.

Yep, I tend to agree. Will be interesting to see adoption / competition between the two!

From what I’ve read and listened to including #[7] and #[8] on #[9] podcast, the key of Nostr and its likely success is simplicity (just like Bitcoin). Based on how you describe the competition’s complexity, I think Nostr has the upper hand as a base layer.

And thanks for taking time to write all this up. 🤙

Yep, it’s the simplicity that enables a multitude of use cases.

Also, Bluesky is great but Nostr has a lot of momentum both from an adoption and development perspective.

Will be interesting to see how it plays out.
