the simplicity of the protocol (everything is a json event) is why so many are hacking on nostr. seeing the raw payload can spark a tinkerer’s imagination. the big platforms are private, permissioned, and complex - not developer friendly. nostr is the opposite and should lean into it. 

 anecdotally, I do this shit for a living. I used to hack on matrix and abandoned it when nostr came along. the LOE is so great with nostr.
