I have seen some critical views on Nostr as a part of decentralized network discussions, but most seem to be focused on culture not function.

What are the functional / protocol differences that make you prefer ActivityPub over Nostr?

I like Nostr over ActivityPub: simpler, more elegant protocol, decentralized, public key signatures, resistance to censorship, anti-moderation.

Content curation is voluntary & left to the client, giving the user greater control/flexibility & preventing moderator tyranny.
