Thread - Nostr Hypermedia

Saw this coming from a freaking gazillion miles away:

Just create a very simple Nostr-Markdown spec already. That can be used in ALL longform. View article → Stop jumping to the next-best-thing all the time like babies. Breaking the current implementations (and motivations!) of others.

In fact, you could make the whole protocol work with just two text syntaxes: 1️⃣ Nostrified Markdown, for all simple short and longform text 2️⃣ Nostrified HTML, for all complex renderings and functions Keep 1️⃣ very simple and just reference 2️⃣ events in it for the complex stuff.

I'm already in favor of djot, just say that you can only make tables with two columns

I have been acknowledging for way too long hombre. Good thing my fixes are :90percent: there and i don't have to care about the :AirQuoteLeft: momentum :AirQuoteRight: of the main protocol devs for my use cases.

:nostr: Markdown wins. All the :AirQuoteLeft: cool stuff :AirQuoteRight: djot adds, can be referenced Nostr events (Math, Tables, etc...).

Adopting nostr-markdown also won't break any existing markdown based content right?

Too much complexity for too little benefit.

This is very well written. I looked at the comments, a lot of them understandably based on people's experience of Nostr as a network with something like 7k daily active users, give or take. There is just no comparison between that size and a network of even just 1m daily actives. The article nods to this and so thumbs up.
