Truly remarkable that some of the biggest proponents of ending censorship and corporate and government control of money and speech don’t use it.

Trust, don’t verify. nostr:note1gcfya8rnx72vgqn4c9pl2le2h9rqv7e00r7lesj62gcv53aavndqjyfaca

Pure signal

i think nostr core apps will be about tuning the signal aka filters

That sweet engagement they get on the bird app is like a drug. Hard to give up.

Slowly then suddenly tho

Slowly then suddenly #nostr #bitcoin

Most of these people prefer convenience.

They make a living complaining about problems. If the problems ever got fixed, they’d be out of a job 😂

Paper Tigers of Freedom.

stay nostr, stack freedom 🫂

None of us deal with truth well.

Yet.

Yet.

Make nostr better and they will come.

already very good but a bit difficult for beginners, we need 'lists' to onboard well

Elon is not actually a proponent of free speech or human freedom, for that matter. He's a liar and a good actor.

he advocates 'freer' speech, he is apparently getting rid of blocks which is good but the bitch ceo he hired is bringing lots of the old censors back

Most of them pretending to fight with censorship in feodal structure of ActivityPub.

Indeed, we are actively making plans to move https://exploding-heads.com/ from Lemmy which is ActivityPub based, to Nostr for that very reason - rampant censorship.

Awesome! You will be welcomed here. 🤙🫂

this is the way!

Define Use.

I use it like my grandmother used Gold. She lived through the hell of Idi Amin and then The Congress Party of India (The guy Rahul Gandhi you were being all pally with, his disguating Family robbed the country blind and they are still trying to grab power again). She scoffed at them all and held Gold! As for Uganda, she saw what was happening and swiftly moved her Gold abroad. There was no Bitcoin during her lifetime. She left me a nice chunk of Gold. RIP Grandma. Thanks for the lessons.

Define Proponent!

Often the loudest Proponents are the biggest hypocrits or even Trojan Horses (enemy spies).

Don't be naive friends. The enemies of Bitcoin have many plots and many agents!!! Beware.

Yeah. Define proponent indeed. What were they selling just a few years back? Why are they plugging the opposite things now? Decentralisation is wonderful. But does that have to mean non-eraseable? Are there any drawbacks to the giving the internet an indelible memory? Of course. The enemies of humanity will exploit the zeitgeist in their favour, whichever way the wind blows. The internet is just a tool, let's never forget it.

Come to think of it, "don't trust, verify" is a bit mantra like, isn't it? If we become uncritical absolutists about anything, allowing beliefs to replace thoughts and rules to replace principles, we can be led to the slaughter just as easily.

People are seeking a well-organized internet, but the internet was originally meant to be more chaotic.

And some of the most notorious censors do.

It's called $42B

Maybe they know that nostr means data harvesting and no privacy, no right to be forgotten, no responsibility regarding data handling by relays.
