The problem is anytime you talk about ways to moderate content (which is what filtering algorithms are) people on Nostr yell “CENSORSHIP” and the conversation goes nowhere.

People need to realize that bottom-up content moderation isn’t censorship.

Case and point is the PR for “NIP-69” which simply defines a standardized vocabulary for NIP-36 & NIP-56 and people are pushing back on it. They openly say it worries them, but can’t describe exactly what the problem is. That’s just fear. If they give it some thought they’ll see bottom-up isn’t censorship…
