There is alot of derangement syndrome and/or full misunderstanding of what nostr is and can('t) do.

Some of what I gather so far is likely due to Nostr being very unlike bitcoin. There is no time chain, no new shiny complex cryptography, no key rotation, no universal data completeness, dependence on DNS, etc...

It's mostly lazy/incomplete understanding of Nostr.

The current state of bitcoin (public) though is very un-nuanced and rhetorical group think, so i'm not very surprised.

It just occurred to me, due to a nostr bug, that it might actually be pretty cool to have social media hide *who authored* the posts on your TL to force a kind of double-blind perspective. You'd know the post or reply is (or probably is) from one of the people you follow, but you wouldn't be so quick to agree (and perhaps might even be more willing to disagree) if you aren't just smashing the heart button as a reflex because you like the guy. It might make discussions more communal and disagreements less personal if you knew that you're still talking to someone you generally like and respect, but you don't know whether it's "that one guy on the internet" or, like, your actual Mom.

(Nostr, due to ramshackle Tor support, often displays notes from people without correctly fetching their profiles for me, so I find myself liking or replying or following people without having any idea as to their nym or avatar)
