Yeah I understand that, I'm not a technical guy but I understand decentralisation... Regardless of that, I believe every expression of human creativity and ingenuity should be allowed to exist and offered for people to freely choose.... But there also should be some form of moderation because I wouldn't want my kids for example (If I had any), to be exposed to ALL kinds of content, there are stuff not meant for minors to see or to read about, out there in the wild and I don't mean just porn, there are also thoughts, ideas, information in general, that could be harmful for the young minds or just misleading at best. Sometimes seems like people here are kind of extremists, yeah we all love Bitcoin and it will always be the greatest, but people here quickly disregard all kinds of new technologies inspired by the greatest, that build upon it's principles and expands utility beyond store of value and financial freedom. This offspring of ideas sprung from Bitcoin was bound to happen sooner or later, good deeds inspire others to follow and contribute, expand and further build upon that foundation.
I don’t disagree with any of this. Lots of stuff on the internet I wouldn’t want to see or my child to see. I think the β€œhow” to have the best online experience is what most debate on. Government involvement in that just corrupts it and is a slippery slope as we have seen. β€œContent mediation” (if we want to call it that) should be in the hands of the platform/relay owners solely with the final say at the individual level with mute or block.
I really don't get it... what is all this "free speech" advocating by one hand, then calling for more platforms banned with the other hand? Last time I checked people talk freely about Nostr, Bluesky and other platforms on X, there are even entire accounts dedicated to competing platforms over there. But when I come here, a platform that is regarded as the "future of censorship resistant networks", I stumble upon posts like this, inciting to censor other platforms, posted by the very own creator of Nostr.... what is this shit? πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ
