@evan @ricmac this was a very quick write up was a reply to a question of why I was working on Nostr and not ActivityPub. It deserves a deeper take because the details matter.

We need to look at not just what is possible on each tech stack, but also what is being actively used. E.G. Nostr does have custom algorithms but it’s clunky and there are only a few dozen. Custom algorithms work really well on Bluesky. I could say, we do the custom algorithms too, but that misses the point.
