Drop your number 1 reason for running Core v30 or Knots 👇 Logically Knots makes more sense to me, but trying to listen to both sides. And it could be helpful to others who are less technical (like me). I feel like there's a ton of shit being thrown around on YT and X from both sides of the aisle. But I am very interested to hear nostr's perspective. This is the most intelligent group on the planet so I think it will be useful. Core or Knots, and what's your logic? #asknostr

Knots because its my fucking node and im not relaying retarded nor illegal pictures on a monetary blockchain that is our one shot to escape a century old war machine that rules the world. If this isnt obvious to yall then you are just not understanding how the world works and what we are up against.

I am not quiet sure, if this is about the same problematic, brought by different perspectives. But to me it seems a way, that Knot nodes are kind of acting like Nostr users, which decide themselfes to filter transactions by their preferences, while in core, the filters are more predefined by the code, with less costumization. So to me it seems, as if Knots gives more free market tools to nodes.
