 Peter Todd's right. Nostr has become more centralized and isn't as censorship-resistant as people claim. The neglect of the relay network is part of it, with most relay operators dropping off. A few remain, but it’s barely holding on. This was kind of clear from the start—Nostr is just a subset of HTTP, so anything Nostr can do, HTTP can too, and actually more with storage and real-time capabilities. How decentralized either is depends on how they’re used. Nostr's centralization, like HTTP's, was always possible, and the article’s author had a big hand in that. Still useful, just not as advertised.
