I see you are the author of the project.

Doesn't Bostr basically remove decentralization, though? The proxy has the ability to censor content, in principle.

it's still remain decentralized as event travels across numerous relays.

> the proxy has the ability to censor content

for our bouncer, we do not have any content type that we censor for anyone that use it. sure it was possible, however the intended goal for this project was *not for public use*, but rather suited for *private use*.

any individual person still able to host their own bouncer, either for themselves or for everyone else.

it's their responsibilities to do what they would like to do with it.

I think this might have the potential of talking trough hidden services.

Communications trough hidden services are slower, but you might chose to talk to a few bouncers (if you don't trust any of them individually) instead of many relays.

Ok, thanks.

I wasn't implying you do censor anything, just pointing out the admin of a bouncer could elect to do so.

I'm not sure I understand the purpose of a self-hosted bouncer because you'd still need the bandwidth to talk to all relays that you're using. I need to look more into it.
