I mean, re-reading, I guess I should have asked how it’s like Twitter. Lightning being duct-taped to the side, while being normatively loaded, is actually accurate since the lightning integration is just that. One protocol interacting with another.
In his first interview with the press, @Fiatjaf says Twitter’s increasing propensity to ban users had frustrated him. But he was unable to switch to a competitor while retaining his followers.

it is like twitter in that it’s designed to be like twitter.
Ah yes, Twitter, the famous protocol for sending signed JSON blobs over a relay network.
no, as in, the developer built nostr because he wanted a twitter-like microblogging platform he couldn’t be banned from.
really, this is skim-reading territory. you could have saved us both a lot of time by just reading the history of the thing.
Wow, what a good faith breakdown!
No, he wanted the ability to build microblogging platforms (among other stuff) on top of a decentralized relay network.
But of course, you only skim-read, so can’t blame you too much.
better than not reading at all, apparently
Apparently not for you

Lol it says it right at the end of your quote.
Nostr is a protocol, not a platform. Your whole quote backs up exactly what I said.
