Posting the HN link because of comments there...

There's some interesting discussion there. Mostly critics, but also a few nostr fans in there, so it makes for some interesting discussion.

Notes:

  1. the hn crowd really doesn't like the use of "relay" to describe a nostr relay.
  2. they are super salty about nostr in general
  3. there are also a lot of bitcoin haters on hn

they are super salty about nostr in general

The simplicity of a dumb sever and json over websockets really triggers the self-nerdsniping archetype

Same archetype that ends up shitcoining because Bitcoin doesn't do enough fancy sounding nonsense

The name "relay" is confusing. It's just a server that caches and serves...
