I can’t believe it! Someone who chose to use a centralized platform instead of Nostr was banned?! It’s so shocking!
I wish the tooling around Secure Scuttlebutt wasn’t so annoying to use, more attention might have had some of the rough edges filed off.
On one hand you can have an offline first replication method (Phones syncing messages over bluetooth, etc.), but then you can’t post from multiple devices without moving your account between them.
Oh, so NOSTR is not hated here anymore. Good Anakin good.
Seriously, an amazingly successful platform.
People always want to try subtler and subtler tech, and NOSTR’s dumb architecture with relays is something that could only be conceived by people not that fond of tech brilliance. And that’s good and right! And if those people are cryptobros, then so be it, they found the right way and this is what matters.
They had a task one can’t solve with classic P2P, because mobile devices and energy consumption and uptime. They solved it the old-fashioned way which is still right, kinda like Usenet, except reducing news servers to asynchronous relays.
NOSTR already has some standard extensions for moderated communities, I’m just not sure if there are any clients supporting that.
Who could’ve ever predicted this?!?

I will share the same shock the day I see that 16 out of 15 posts on Nostr are not related to Bitcoin or using Nostr.
