I've been working on a Quora/StackOverflow alternative (on top of Nostr).

I hope this demonstrates how a distributed social protocol can solve many use cases and the advantage to the end-user:
- do not get rugpulled by (VC backed) companies that own your data
- receive zaps/money by contributing
- data is truely available to everyone (but signed by author)
- BinaryIgor 1y agoThere are also tradeoffs: * relays can just go away - you don't have your data then * there is both user-friendly and secure way of managing your private keys; additionally, once your keys are gone, your identity is gone - there is no "I forgot my password" procedure
- agalush 1y agoIf you're worried about the durability of your contents, you can publish them on multiple relays, even self-hosted ones. Also, events are just JSON content: you can easily dump them on your local storage and republish on another relay whenever you want.
