Thanks, I take back my comment. I wasn't aware that the protocol was open sourced.
The main thing holding me back is the community and network that I have built on nostr.
Pubkey seems like an upgrade to nostr, why build it as an incompatible network instead of a few NIPs?
Sure, the main challenge with social graphs is their lack of portability. People call this "network effect" and believe it means that new networks cannot replace large networks...yet over time, they always do seem to get replaced ;)
"Why build Pubky as an incompatible network instead of a few NIPs?" ...
Well, why did Nostr build something new instead of improving on something that already existed?
Why would any new project from the outside choose Nostr of all the designs in the world and build on that?
Well, we don't agree with Nostr's design. Despite that, we did actually offer all of our ideas to Nostr since the beginning, they never cared. We even explicitly tried to get them to consider PKARR, and it was rejected.
You cannot just convince a cult to believe in a new vision, they are loyal and blinded. You cannot depend on uninterested people to make your ideas a real.
So, we made something better by rethinking everything, instead of making something derivative and broken.
