Here you have the Bitcoin Core mempool on the left and the Bitcoin Knots mempool on the right.

85,000 transactions vs. 1,640, which means that 98% of transactions are spam or would have been in the past until Core changed the criteria and deliberately broke the spam filters.

It was already evident then, and it became even more evident when they never repaired them again since version 25 (if I remember correctly).

But don't be confused, it's not about filters or spam, it's about the core team being totally corrupt. I think now in version 30 it's more than evident, and therefore it's about the core developers never facing changes to improve privacy.

And privacy is the most important thing.

I’m a bit lost in the debate

Even if knots can filter, can people not go directly to the miners to get what they want anyways

Also what is the end goal of knots? Does it matter if more people run it once someone is running core?

And how is the running of a different node different from a soft fork?

Thanks

It should be noted that spam could only be filtered if everyone enforced the anti-spam rules, including miners.

Knots is a wake-up call to Core developers, nothing more than that, a form of protest.

I see

That’s why people choose to not mine in pools that process spam and stuff like that

Also using public shaming as a way to get people using bitcoin exactly as money, as I would agree it should be

Bitcoin is to fix the money fix the world

We can’t risk any culture deterioration not seeing it as money.

We may only have this one shot to defeat Fiat and save the world.

"And how is the running of a different node different from a soft fork?"

forks have a possibility of an unintended chain split or can be used to force a chain split.

different client implementations with the same consensus rules will converge to the same chain tip.

btw you can safely run a hard fork of bitcoin. you would most likely be in consensus with the rest of the network, despite the popular retardation about "hard forks" the conditions under they can temporarily be abused are super expensive and hard to coordinate.
