 I think nostr has some problems with discoverability, where is the data? An npub in wich relays can i find it. Pkaar seems to solve this, on the other hand what pubky for now, seems a bit harder to start, requires more infra imo, nostr it's the easiest thing, also I don't know if pubkey allows redundancy of data, multiple homeservers, or how to move data to a new homeservers. Pubky also has an advantage atm, it has a company behind it, this touches the recent bazaar VS cathedral post of John Carvalho. BTW we have NostrErrorLog and a John carvalho wich one is fake? Lol.

 give me a bazaar any day over a cathederal

pompous cardinals granted their reign by God, i mean the pope

nope, the solution is relays that talk to each other and share events, that forward queries to each other and use each other as second level databases

 But pubky already solves that, your key is always found and from there everything else.

 i understand the frustration at some of the stupid things that people have written for nostr and the 300+ pending PRs on the nips repo

so, i mean, go ahead, make this fork or whatever, but it's an uphill battle to bring people to a protocol, i'll be here, innovating at what it is instead of pretending i'm some kind of priest of decentralization

 He keeps making new npubs on every device instead of copying the nsec like normal people

 Pkarr is about using the right tool for the right job.  It's more like the UNIX approach of dong one thing well.  When things are combined you get a system greater than the sum of its parts.  Nostr should also take the approach of doing one thing well, relaying notes from one user to another.  Some nostr devs are trying to do things with nostr, which impressively work, but dont scale, because they are 20 years behind the state of the art. Use the right tool for the right job and users get the best of all worlds, the apps hide the UX from them, and they just get amazing features.
