Nostr is a pretty decent protocal. You can layer moderation on top or read it raw dog.
Hashtags or communities work fine as topics. And it's identity system is useful for both being sure if who you are speaking to and encrypting personal messages.
I'm a fan.
I like NOSTR a lot. Especially the early bits. My favorite part about NOSTR is how it can be bridged with practically anything. My second favorite parts are all low-level networking and encryption JavaScript libraries it spawned. It made a lot of people (including myself) consider a "back-to-basics" approach towards the internet.
