I'm not talking to you through a "server". What you're seeing is a Nostr bridge that acts like a Fediverse server. I'm not a "member" of that server (momostr.pink), nor any server.

Nostr is a different protocol / architecture. Rather than storing your identity and social graph on some particular server, like Mastodon, identities are simply public/private key pairs, independent of any one server or operator.

Posts and other content are shared by "relays", which only exist to pass notes around. This makes censorship effectively impossible, because you can generally always find a relay that will carry your note.

Thus, there's nothing like the situation you describe, where one disgruntled user can get you "banned" for an entire section of the user base.

Content can (and does) still get reported for spam, hate, etc... And users can individually censor certain users, relays, or use more advanced filtering... But you're not forced to "pick a relay" in the same way you are to "pick a server" in Mastodon. You can use one, a select few, or all of them and filter on the client-side.
