Comment on [Announcement] Migrating away from lemmy.
WishfulAlbatross@monero.town 1 week agoThere is nothing inherent about Nostr itself that makes it only a Twitter competitor. Nostr is just a protocol. The clients can behave and look however you want them to. There are already Reddit-like clients for Nostr (Satellite.earth, chorus.community, oddbean) and even encrypted messengers built on it (0xChat, Keychat, White Noise, etc)

Yes but Nostr is mostly a maxi community which is very niche compared to lemmy. These smaller Reddit-like clients are every more niche. Since most of those forums are incompatible since there isn’t a standard, that’s even more of a niche. At that point, what’s the point? Matrix and SimpleX might be niche but they have a large Monero communities. Reddit and X have large communities that don’t care about being managed. Nostr currently has a twitter like community for people that like interacting with maxis. Lemmy had a place for reddit refugees who still liked the concept of reddit where different communities could stumble on each other.
