The paradox of a decentralized free speech app on the Apple Store is not lost on me.

I still think it’s a oversight and turning the other way due to the smaller scale that they can rug pull when ever they want, and I also think the state of what ships (mostly having multiple bootstrap relays) is not the best positioning if and when that day comes.

Agree 💯. The same 3 or so relays are the default for most. With most of those, if not all are behind Cloudflare and/or a single point of failure. I've been trying to bring awareness to the shortcomings but is an uphill battle. Is all one big black box. Be it Cloudflare or how the relays are setup is a mystery. Can't even stream from most to replicate data since they use the default WAF on Cloudflare which blocks it along with Tor exit nodes (block or captcha never see since webspckets). So the busiest relays are not really free speech friendly to those in repressive locations who most need it.
