The funny part is its not, you can be banned from any node, and joining new ones is a manual processes.

getting banned from a server on nostr has no effect

vs banned from your homeserver in fedi land?

no that is not how it works

nostr notes aka posts are signed self provable things, they can come from anywhere, you could stick them on a usb stick and hand them around, make a p2p network for them

as is now we use servers called relays, we usually publish our notes to a few for redundancy but also because we dont all use the same servers, i use 30 which is a bit much, others use 6, relays also exchange notes with each other, i can also save my notes or others notes and i can reupload them to any server

ie notes can come from anywhere

there is a bit to work out on making the whole thing more efficient and finding things better but it generally works well

a self hosted fedi instance may go down and can be blocked, how does it work in china for example? nostr is doing well in china
