 Frankly I'm also super bullish, but I think we need something really revolutionizing: 
a client-based website engine running in client, that take all the notes + some new nips for styling and formatting and generate the website in the client. This would be a new nostr-based way to have a personal webspace online, hosted on relays as notes... Basically, in this case the nostr client become the "web browser itself", but doesnt render html+css+js, it renders some meta-notes formatted with specific nips for indicate formatting, stiling, even basic object interactions, and the actual notes as contents... 
 That's almost exactly how npub.pro sites work, you could render them inside an app without relying on the website url. All you're asking is us to rebuild html+css, which is too much to ask

 This is why I think it's revolutionary.  People dont yet see the possibilities, but with every new user, every new website, every new theme, every new widget, eyes will open more.  It's still quite early in its iterations and may have to be improved many times over years.  But the structure is so good, that the surface for innovation is high.  And, importantly, we know the web scales to 10 billion people already.  It's like a bobsled, first you start pushing it, but then it gains momentum and you jump in. 
 Exactly! Pushing the flywheel is really hard at first, at least it seems like we're trying to push the right one the right way now. 
 Yes.  Also very important is that it's permissionless without a king-maker effect.  You dont have to write a NIP, get it approved, make an app.  You can just tinker with your nostr homepage, and if something works out, post it in a note.  In fact, people are doing this already, including non-techies.  That's how you know it's a winner. 
 Combine with @HORNETS and you can have a distributed rich media experience 
 Man, this is cool! 
Very similar to how I see Stories, and Micro apps in general, work.  
 Will you be in Riga? 
 wow, thats so cool!
