Nostr could do some of the things Alex says Bluesky does better:1) We can create a new kind that replaces kind 1 which has spans (or facets) indicating bold, or url, or anything else. I wanted to do it that way since years ago when we had the '[0]' replacements (I thought it should just be a span in a tag with no placeholder in the content)2) If we think a chain of events is needed to prove that none of your events were censored (so we can properly claim censorship resistance), we could add another kind where authors publish their chain of events as a list of IDs. If it needs some kind of mergeability to fix race conditions, I've talked about how to do that with a last-write-wins (LWW) conflict free replicated data type (CRDT) in https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1630.

You are effectively saying that Nostr can be anything, but it can't, not unless the clients with most market share options in, but if that is to be taken for granted, then Nostr can have Pkarr IDs and Peergos data model etc. I wish that was true, but you can't have both decentralised development and agility at the same time, the more independent clients the more ossified the development becomes, this is an old story since Email failing to get any end to end encryption, while Signal doing it in few years.

This Signal/email thing is a meme I never understood. As a client developer you can just implement stuff. Does that make it no longer decentralized? Not sure if it's a definitions problem or people just get a mental block. But you can do it.

Basically I think the Signal guy said that just as a justification to not be decentralized.

Signal was federated?

@Hoss @0461fcbecc4c3374439932d6b8f11269ccdb7cc973ad7a50ae362db135a474dd @930ccef12372dd2f16057cfc54f0dbd94335d8b51b4e2737236b00cab718fcd9 @ee11a5dff40c19a555f41fe42b48f00e618c91225622ae37b6c2bb67b76c4e49 I don't know a lot of detail about this but I think they ripped out out really early on. they never open sourced their server.
