One problem I see with Nostr is the deletion of notes. If you delete a note, you can't be sure if the note is actually getting deleted from all the relays it has been broadcasted to. Some relays honor the delete requests while others don't.
Say you post something that turns out to be copyrighted or maybe you just regret whatever you published on Nostr. You can't get rid of the note, depending on whether the relays will honor your delete request.
Moral of the story: You better make sure not to post something you'll later regret.
