Good rant! Agree nostr is the best tool in the box for a pretty limited range of use cases, mainly when you need an API that does its thinking out loud. When nostr tries to be what it isn't, that's when it gets super buggy and crashy. Like this idea of using nostr for the backend of a high-throughput video streaming platform with client-side proof generation, what on earth?

Nostr live streaming powered by Bitcoin lightning. Stream freely with Bitcoin payments, no censorship, open source.
? Did you even bother to ask how it works before making this snarky comment? It is not using Nostr directly to transmit the video. Nostr is only for the social announcement, discovery and interaction. Can you provide another example of when Nostr gets super buggy and crashy? I mainly want to understand what you think Nostr "is".
