Well written, though I think perhaps a little too long as one piece.

Also, while I understand how multiple relays might delay the building of a captive market, I wasn't convinced that a captive market is out of the question. IIRC, google chat, once upon a time, incorporated XMPP. They had also developed "a better email" that was an open protocol, though it's name escapes me.

Yes, I can run my own SMTP server (snd I do), but it's definitely not for most people. It seems to me, there's a small group of companies hosting most email and that's enough for them.

And one more thought I had was, the more relays someone goes through, the more easily location triangulation is. AFAIK nostr does not use Dandelion++.
