that has been my problem with slashtags,

it looks very interesting and hypercores have cool concepts, but the fact that so much of it is developed behind close doors and that the main holepunch/slashtags clients (keet) are still closed source is a big issue.

Fundamentally is an issue of emergent order/market discovery vs irreducible complexity trying to solve every possible issue in one stroke.

It’s the same reason why Costa Ruca feels 100x better than Austin.

Platforms vs Protocols, feel like all the alternatives to Nostr are treated as platforms by the main maintainers

Very well put.

The internet should return to open protocols over proprietary platforms.

I hope Nostr is a catalyst for this.
