I'm not telling you how to do anything. It sounds like you have some baggage that you're taking out on me. In fact, you're the one who even replied to me. I'm simply sharing thoughts that were spurred by a note that wasn't even posted by you. If you're sick of hearing other people's opinions then don't respond to them with your own. You don't get to respond to someone's opinion and then expect to be shielded from a counter.
I am more than happy to discuss this topic with those who disagree with me, but you don't get to tell me that I can't have an opinion without meeting your arbitrary barriers. The work I put into Nostr may not be exactly like yours, but that doesn't mean you somehow have more of a right to an opinion than I do. You're also using things that you didn't build.
You seem to think that the world would be a better place if everyone who isn't writing code just shut up and never shared thoughts on the matter. Using your Signal example, they have made the software better and other solutions have improved as well. You don't have to care what others think, but you don't live in a vacuum where your work is the only thing that matters.
I appreciate your efforts, but you're the one choosing to take this personally. There is a desire shared by many people to put everything and everyone onto Nostr with no regard for the consequences that may have. I think people who research issues like security and share opinions are just as important as those who build software.
The goal shouldn't be perfection, but it shouldn't be stagnation and self-insulation from criticism either. My only point is that adoption should not be accelerated at the expense of all else. I just want to minimize risk to those who use software. If you wish to condemn me for that, then so be it.
