Nostr has much room for improvement. The inspiration we might take from Bluesky are the labellers, feed generators, and the wide range of user-controlled moderation options
But if the goal is decentralization, Bluesky may take inspiration from Nostr
Bluesky has more severe problems than Nostr and they grow with every user
* it's completely and permanently centralized without major changes to the protocol (open access is not decentralization nor is it permissionless)
* open access microservice architecture but without decentralization (distribution within service layers) puts infra providers in the clusterfuck position of arbitrating between various competing interests and themselves, which will get interesting when things commercialise
* it's hard to resolve these issues when the protocol developer is also the app developer with 11 million Twitter refugees most of whom left because Elon wasn't censoring hard enough, and the complexity of the protocol is a friction against third party involvement
