Just got reminded today how far we have come as the Nostr dev community.
Early on when nostr:npub1gt9gms5hr3l6548zxgn7xvcvcmzxyzgdsrrelrdwxwmj0exz7jaqdjlxjt was the earliest proper paid relay, nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s was making Damus in beta, I contributed the LNbits backend to nostr:npub1qqqqqqyz0la2jjl752yv8h7wgs3v098mh9nztd4nr6gynaef6uqqt0n47m's Nostream, Astral was the best Nostr app at the time, nostr:npub13ch6rllnruy5z2qm57836yw5zx4ytju4jl569jys6jhtp9furupsccdsaw's media hosting service was early, the userbase was still small, and I was struggling to convince nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 to get on Nostr... I could go on and on.
And now we have a lot of different types of apps, reliable relays, much more content, better usability. And it only keeps getting better.
