Excuses, excuses, excuses. NOSTR is literally doing all of that in the open with the community involved since the beginning, without a single excuse. This isn't exactly a new thing. Walled garden companies will feed hope for years while dripping a bit of freedom as slowly as they possibly can get away with it. Reminds when google wanted to support XMPP, Microsoft stating they love Linux and more recently Meta now claiming they will support mastodon. It isn't an open development, it isn't open data. Just another VC-funded company with deep pockets for advertisements everywhere.

> It isn't an open development, It is literally open development. There isn't a CLA and they accept patches/PRs from the community. The "least open" aspect is their contribution guidelines which are essentially just "the maintainer is not required to waste time on low quality PRs and reserves a right to veto PRs that move counter to the vision they have for the project". If that's not open development then neither is Linux or Git. > it isn't open data. And how is it not open data? The data is literally self-hostable, the relays and API servers are self hostable. And you can choose between an in-progress ID standard and a DNS based DID standard. There is literally no part of the data that isn't open.
