Which it is not. If you've put your own homeserver up behind your PKDNS then it'll be an order of magnitude harder to censor your pubky presence than it will your nostr presence. Not to say either would be a cakewalk, but you can't in good faith argue that nostr as it stands today is stronger in terms of censorship resistance.

They can censor your homeserver. Or the internet connections of who host Mainline DHT servers. So on.

DHT requires a complicated system that is easy to detect. A Nostr note however can be sent through any channel and one channel is all you need.

Ok that's factually wrong on I think potentially every count.

Joe this is the most fruitful discussion regardless of misunderstandings.

I think it’s really helpful to talk about Nostr vs pubky in terms of “can you build one with the other?”

That's one framing. I'd express it that the PKverse simply adds a z axis. So you get a three-dimensional coordinate system. Whereas Nostr is an xy plane.

Nostr is a structured format for messages.

It is public keys in its simplest form.
