This is a first for me, a Nostr app which has migrated off of Nostr to a newer protocol, willow.

Willow is one of the most interesting emerging protocols, this is the first time i’ve seen a willow app in the wild.

Its a different paradigm, like git v.s. svn

Thanks for sharing this. Always good learning something new.

No update in the last 2 years?

I think they are not updated within the Nostr ecosystem, also they seem to be not very active and lacking in collaborators, just have a look at Earthstar GH. Last but not least, they are funded by the European Union.

That last one is a HUUUUGE nope.

Never heard of this.

But it makes sense, because no one is supposed to make "an app on top of Nostr", but "a Nostr client". When people say "on top of Nostr" I immediately think they have decided to abuse relays for passing messages for a proprietary network in a fake p2p network or something like that, and that's not how Nostr was supposed to work and such approaches will not scale or last.
