A year ago, there was a new project on Nostr almost every day, with developers pushing out updates and exploring a wide range of ideas. These days, it’s harder to find much beyond slogans or greetings in the top posts. Innovation has slowed down, and part of the reason seems to be the centralization of the NIP process. It’s become tricky for anyone outside a small group to contribute. Some proposals get merged quickly, while others are asked to wait up to a year. Maybe that’s just how things evolve, but other FOSS projects seem to manage this better. It’d be great to see Nostr return to that earlier pace of innovation and improve the developer experience.
