On nostr relaying RSS data:
Some say "with nostr we don't *need* RSS.
Maybe, but we already have RSS. There are over 4.3 million feeds in the Podcast Index.
As a nostr dev, do you convince 4.3 million feeds to republish their data in nostr format? Or do you grab 4.3 million RSS feeds, build a web of trust within them based on what you want, and relay those without any other work needed to be done by the publisher?
I know what I'd pick.
