Yep.
Recently, I read an article about how architecture was a function of the local materials and that gave range to a wide array of local styles. But since the advent of steel, concrete and glass - available globally - you are seeing a style that is based on common elements usurping any local influence (just look at any ‘modern’ downtown). This is the same for #nostr
I’ve been thinking long and hard about #nostr - what are the key ingredients that make for a compelling architecture: like steel, glass and concrete? I believe they are: 1. external identity, 2. relays and 3. signed kind events.
The essence of #nostr is captured in NIP-01, which is the ‘standard’ - everything else follows as ‘conventions’.
