Yeah, that's why he's interested in AT Protocol—the potential for better exit is there. But exit alone isn't enough. Exit is compatible with Nostr's ethos, but it's only part of what's needed. You need exit and somewhere neutral to exit to.

Right now, most web hosting is ideology-free and neutral—you can host anywhere you want. But these people are rejecting this model because they believe neutrality doesn't exist. They want every service to carry an ideology by default.

So instead of neutral infrastructure, we'd get leftist hosting, trans hosting, right-wing hosting, etc. No shared commons—just an infinite multiplication of ideological silos. Thats basically Mastodon.

To say that Nostr is compatible with these people's views means that we only want ideological relays and consider neutral relays dangerous. I don't think Nostr is compatible with this, just as cryptocurrencies are not compatible with it.

can you really exit bluesky? I don't understand how that is discussed

if they ban you from their appview or relay no other bluesky user will ever see you again, how is that credible exit?

Yes you can. Bans are at the PDS level or moderation - appview or relay does not block (for now)

but they can?

twitter also didn't ban anyone in its first years of existence

how does "moderation" work?
