Yesterday i was monitoring the twitter thread of the announcement of Buzz, and i noticed there atleast start-ups that realized they were r3kt because Buzz was something similar to what they were doing/planning to do.

I was in a voicechat with the soapbox people at that moment and MK Fain (npub1jvn…89sc) responded that they were one of them. But she was wrong.

This is the nice thing about Nostr, is that because you are no longer offering a platform where its binary in terms of users being either on your thing, or on someone else's thing, and the biggest thing being the winner of it all.

No, instead, the users of your thing don't miss out because they are not on the other thing, and you never lost out in terms of competing. At any moment, you can have a better offer, and users can switch with very low to 0 friction. There is no 1 thing that is the winner, other than the standard* itself.

Nostr

*assuming people play nice and are thoughtfull in terms of those standards.
