To be at least a little bit fair to the researcher, there are dozens of different protocols, networks, and attempts happening concurrently at any given moment.
Yeah, missing out on Nostr is unfortunate, but I'll bet he didn't mention XMPP, Matrix, Zot, OStatus, Tent, Diaspora, Farcaster, and on and on and on. Sure, most of those things are either dead or even smaller than Nostr, but this collective effort has been going on for like 20 years now.
My point is, in a space where there's always yet another effort that's not known widely about within a group, it's a guarantee that someone will feel slighted because their specific thing got no credit.
