Replying to சாரு-秋陽

I understand your points but I don't think to a user, interoperability is that big a concern, unless it messes up basic TL big time.

Even now, threads are a mess across clients & NIP 94 images created on Amethyst are not seen on many clients & it's not caused a hullabaloo 🤷

I'm guessing most people will try out maybe 2-3 clients & stick with the ones they like.

Nostr IS Interoperability.

The value ADD of Nostr on the social internet is only its contribution to decentralized interoperability. It has nothing more ATM that it does well. As long as this interoperability is (appropriately) transparent to the (currently targeted) end user, with zero friction to discover and leverage novel use cases, then nostr wins.

Otherwise (death of a thousand NIPS) if clients and relays loose sight of interoperability (like: for the sake of new features?) nostr’s one super power will fade away.

“maybe 2-3 clients” is losing sight of the forest for the trees.

Other than basic kind1 note interoperability for TL, I don't think it's critical (even kind3 is dubious now with some clients putting hashtags & some only supporting npubs).

Most NIPs are optional anyway, and I don't see it as a deal-breaker.

If I'm missing the forest for trees, so be it ☮️
