Again you attract what is not there. If a Nostr trademark is not registered, then there is nothing to talk about it. What does the ZBD brand have to do with it? There are millions of registered brands in the world, so what? We're talking about the current state of affairs, and I don't understand why you keep insisting that Nostr as a name/brand doesn't matter. This is not true, maybe for now, but it is not true. Stop inventing things that haven’t happened and probably won’t happen.

About Zebedee and their strategy you are speaking for them to justify your position. Briana expressed the company's position, and that's enough. Whether they think about the risks of the disappearance of Nostr or not, you do not know and cannot know.

But you still didn't explain why people should use the name of the protocol instead of the platform.

When Facebook and Google were using XMPP in their chat rooms, the general public had no idea. Just like now nobody cares that Twitch chat is IRC. I at least gave an example of why ZBD is a great idea for ZBD itself.

You're getting a little ahead of yourself by making Nostr look like an established project, which it is not. It's just a collection of poorly written specs on GitHub on how to make JSON. It takes time to prove that this is serious and not just a writing of stoned bitcoiners.

Maybe in the future you won't use relay at all, and just pull notes from the cacheserver. Will that still be a nostr client? 🤔🤣

I don't tell anyone what they should do or what to think. If you can tell me that you're using exactly ZDB platform instead of using Nostr, it's your problem.

Google and Facebook made their chatrooms only for their users, no matter XMPP or something. And direct connection between Facebook users and Google users inside their ecosystem never was the feature for the understandable reasons.

Today I'm using Nostr. I don't care if it will die, or there will be cool fork, or bigtech will develop a new superapp. And I don't care if everybody will forget the word Nostr. I don't care what is going on in Google's or Facebook's or ZBD apps. Now you're user of Nostr protocol, and zbdists too, just like me. That's what I'm talking about. If they wanna pretending that they are in some kind of universe is their business. I'm not trying to convince anyone, I'm talking about the actual situation.
