I do not think pubky is a nostr competitor... the technologies barely overlap imo ..... at the same time, both can benefit from each other... or at least that is how I understood pubky..
Also pkdns is such a cool thing

It would be unhealthy to think of all new tech as "competition" to Nostr.
Nostr is not Bitcoin, it isn't an investment that will mature and make you rich (unless you get funded by Jack?).
Nostr is derivative networking protocol tech that builds on the ideas of many people before it (including my own, believe it or not). It is tech that already has been improved upon in various ways, both inside and outside the Nostr community.
Pubky is a strict improvement to Nostr and if that makes you uncomfortable, the cure is to learn more, not to attack it like it is some sort of virus or scam.
I have dedicated the past 12 years of my life to Bitcoin and freedom technology, and the Synonym team has similar stories. Do you really want to just ignore us and discredit us out of spite?
Is that what you want this community to represent, some sort of tribe with taboos and strict allegiances?
That is not how to compete with Bluesky and Big Tech.
Anyway, we will keep doing what we do regardless of any hate, and we will be ready for you and accepting when you arrive to our ideas.
Thank you for your consideration.

pkdns is awesome !
I customized rnostr so that the nostr relay can be accessed via a pkdns domain. I think it'd be nice if nostr relays didn't depend so much on DNS ...
