 I'm trying my best my dude. If NDK worked properly or snort/system or literally any other library I would have used it. I'm having to build everything from the ground up. Give it a little bit more time, this is just the first release, to prove that the basic idea has merit.

 Do you know how long it took before ActivityPub became relevant? 10 years.

Nostr will scale better than ActivityPub in multiple different ways, I assure you it is a better foundation. But it requires one person to build a perfect library in each programming language - which nobody has done yet in JavaScript. Didn't it take you 2 months to build that in Go? This is a lot of work for one person. But I will do it.

 Probably none of these things would work for Ditto anyway, since the requirements are vastly different.

Anyway, I will give it a little bit more of time before I give up, it feels to me that no one cares about the protocol actually working and everybody that is here is just super cool with their little unscalable bubble, so I'm doing what I can to raise awareness and I'm glad you replied and made your goals and intentions for Ditto clear.
