It seems that devs are frustrated that our only layers are custodial. Even lightning is mostly custodial.

So, to “fix” this, we need a new technology that will potentially enable new unknown solutions in the hope that something will magically solve the problem. They don’t know how it can be abused but they don’t care because they’re distracted by the hopium.

Their hearts are in the right place, but this design philosophy is inappropriate and dangerous.

They need to follow Satoshi’s example. Keep the system simple and safe. Think long term. nostr:note1l04gqlgz906ls840gzf4le9lka952k87ze39mzpxc5mqawn9hptsj24z9a

Honestly, most people I know who are orange pill curious are terrified of self custody. From my experience talking with them, Fedis are where it's at.

Yes, I’m hearing the same. Been working on this… not sure if I have the wording right yet. Thoughts?

Actually, "nooooo, let's take risks on the core protocol, because everyone has to be self sovereign" might be better.

Because it insinuates that everyone has to be self sovereign, even if they don't want to be. Which takes away choice.
