relays are just web servers 

 point is dumbs trying to there only one relay or user need register like they do in mastadoon to post - delegated echo chamber 

 They are just web servers.  you have to run a web server first, to run a websocket server.

There are millions more web server that can pop up on clearnet or onion because its easier, and harder to track 

 exactly - the mastadoon n other ididots do not get this yet. one x domain , few mastamoon domains vs million+ nostr relays that popup when needed  

 The opposite is true.  Mastodon network is growing (new servers popping up) and nostr network is shrinking, due to neglect.

Nostr relays do NOT popup when needed.  They just die as they are not supported.  And we move ever closer to a model of a few central relays.

Mastodon's problem is they are tied too much to one domain.  They can move domains but it's hard.  What they could to do is add a nostr key to their profile.  Just like Nostr added NIP-05 to their profiles.  Then users got best of BOTH worlds.

#ditto is doing this.

 Nostr is like a car radio.

People go to sit in a car and listen to music.

They dont even know (yet) that the car can turn move or drive.  

Because they are happy listening to the music. 

 Anyone can run ditto.
