I am not really in favor of "democratic" social media; I am okay with a Wild West approach where no one should have the right to decide what I am supposed to say or not.

nostr does for social media what the web did for publishing, decentralized it. this is so much better than keeping it centralized but having people vote on who can say what.
I no longer trust people as they can be easily manipulated by the current billion-dollar propaganda mechanism.
absolutely agreed
power should be in everyone's hands, making it equal to all ⚡️
The term "democratic" or "democracy" is often (deliberately) misused. It shall make you think it's "good" a "right".
However, democracy is far from perfect or even liberal. It means the consensus of the majority and the more " unbalanced" (values, common purpose) a society is (e.g. old vs. young, homeowners vs. rent, left vs. right etc.) the more difficult a consesus becomes. Hence, democracy can and has led to authoritarianism.
Constant vigilance is required from each and every citizien to prevent that from happening.
