Ah, the classic “age assurance” system. To be conveniently morphed into a “social credit assurance” system with one or two parameter tweaks when the time is right. The WEF boys have penetrated us again from their mountain lair 👏
Strange that Bluesky is ready to comply with Australian censorship laws and they are not on the list, and being a leftest woke platform, very unlikely to get on the list.
That's why they're so eager to talk about being compliant - they don't actually have to do anything they weren't going to do anyway, they can just talk about how valorous they are. And we all know how much they prefer talking over acting... :-)
🤞 it's kinda boring during the day as an Australian, the global feed is just Japanese people and I don't understand the context for half the stuff they're talking about.
That’s probably because the main Japanese Nostr clients work like a public chat. Replies are usually inline as standalone posts, not threaded. It’s impossible for the western mind to comprehend! 😅
That's what happens when you exclusively depend on your centralised ISP infrastructure.
I will keep making noise until you all wake up... You can FOS code all day long but how about some hardware infrastructure ? I can't stand coders who pretend to dev freedom tools only to host them on bill gates centralised GitHub or run the code on a dam Bezos centralised azure. Have you coders lost the plot ?
By the way, atproto is a decentralized protocol, but the problem is that most people use a single client, which is centralized (bscy). That's why I like having many clients in Nostr (because it's simpler than atproto). It's true there are some large clients (which I don't like), and I hope they don't get any larger.
Nostr's best defence is that nobody has every heard of it! It's literally 150 times smaller than Bluesky, which is literally 150 times smaller than X.
I'll take this kind of boasting seriously when Nostr has an actually serious number of daily active users.
