How is Nostr different? Unless I run my own relay, then I'm just storing my data on someone else's computer. If I don't run my own DNS, then I don't own my NIP-05 identity.
How are we ensuring Nostr doesn't just become another Mastadon, with a centralization of large relays (which is already starting to happen with most clients picking a common set of popular relays?)
