I guess I'm still not following why Core decided to do this. Why open up this battle right now, was anyone actually asking for this? This just seems like a tactical error on Core's part, or theres something that they are trying to distract us from like covenants or something.
I don't see the upside for them, and it seems like the end result is more implementations of Bitcoin will get support - which I'm okay with, because if the others get some traction I would think they would all need to be somewhat in agreement on the big things or risk a fork. MAD for changes to Bitcoin.

I've always loved the look of minidiscs too. Its funny that CD-RWs never took off as recording format, but I guess why would Sony support it when they had minidisc, and at that point CD-Rs were so cheap who cared if you made a coaster.

I have my doubts. I've thought about this before because I'm a nerd. There's like 20K daily users on Nostr, and probably a sizable percentage of that isn't English speaking.
There's 350M people in the US and there's 1.5M of us. Or, there's like 400M native English speakers if we're dicing it up that way.
Then, we're in place with high electricity costs and, from what I can tell, is a bitcoin black hole, and Nostr is overwhelming filled with bitcoiners.
The odds don't look good, It may just be you and me.

Until/Unless Twitter royally pisses people off and there's a mass exodus (and not a fake exodus like Bluesky, people really leave permanently) I don't see it getting to that point.
