Subnostr

Implementing a new NIP-01 library to a high quality standard is a lot of work, now.

Maybe it always was. Dunno.

Nostr is full of devs saying that they built a client "from scratch" in 4 hours, or whatever, but they're just using a library.

That's like saying I built a command line interface in 1 hour with Typer and forgetting to mention that Typer took a whole group of people months to build to a full version. 😂

I built a client from scratch in 4 hours but it's just some sheets of paper with hand written text on them

Remember, nostr is an open protocol anyone can implement however they want

3 hours of it was spent pulping wood and blueberries turning them into small sheets of paper and some ink

Posts can be signed with a special non-cryptographic method but there is a weakness at determining if they actually come from the npub they say they do
