Nothing like saying aomething in public to make you re-think your position. Things I said on bitcoin.review last week that I actually don't think are correct:

- We don't need algorithmic feeds independent of social graph. It is actually nice to be able to find good topical content, for example by searching for your health problem in reddit or looking for an interesting history channel on youtube. But maybe search rather than feeds is the right way to approach this.
- It's ok if nostr fails, we can go to the next best protocol. I agree with the other guys that now is the time., and that imperfect technical solutions often win. I guess my point is, if we can upgrade nostr's flaws away, we should.
- There is no such thing as a digital public square, and there is no need for one. I have no idea if this is true, and would like to think about it more. It's definitely helpful for people to have a place to talk with others watching and learning, but there definitely isn't a single forum in which that happens.
