I have another fundamental question:
Can we not build wordpress on top of the nostr protocol?
Wordpress is complex, open source but centralized.
Nostr is a protocol.
Wordpress is a content management system. A CMS. Very powerful. But centralized! People can hack it. All your data is in one place. You need woocommerce and all to receive payments.
Nostr has payments in it already.
How does a CMS on top of the nostr protocol look like?
We already got notes on nostr. We got payments.
Can we build a CMS on top of this layer 2? Layer 1 is Bitcoin. Layer 2 lightning.
What is needed on layer 3 to make this happen? Can we build Decentralized wordpress on layer 3, on top of nostr?
I don’t want to change your post. I can ask this question somewhere else. But that is my thought.
If I already have a communication protocol, nostr, I would evolve that protocol to create pages, posts, menus, styling and hold that in a space. And that would be my new “decentralized” wordpress.
Mate, this is a totally different project. You could open another post about it. I'm focus on replacing the comments for now, not building another CMS alternative.
This is just a small replacement of a single functionality. It will help people discover nostr and nostr to expand its usage/users. The private commenting system for Wordpress websites.
Around 810 million websites use WordPress as of 2023, you do the math. It's a great open source marketing platform.
