Agreed. I’m glad to see both protocols growing. By “win” I mean: become the most popular twitter replacement.
Comment on I love Mastodon and ActivityPub. But I think Nostr is going to win. Here's why.

If you think the Fediverse is about “winning”, you’ve already failed to understand it.
The Fediverse is about choice. Some people will use X. Other people will use Y. Under the hood, both X and Y use the same protocols and they can communicate so everyone stays connected even when making different choices.
Nobody “wins”; everybody wins.

What does it matter if X is more popular than Y if I prefer Y and I can see all the same stuff as the people using X see?
The Fediverse is not a popularity contest either.
Also for the record, ever since I started taking donations from my users for my instance, they have been extremely generous and have more than covered costs. So I’m not sure I agree with your cost argument so far.

ahem - nobody I know will use X.
