And I CERTAINLY will not...but your'e advocating for the exact thing that Nostr was created to prevent.

Seriously, I cannot believe that you're saying "censorship is the answer"...

That's what Twitter is for...

Or... perhaps you're saying that if YOU are to be the ultimate arbiter of what should be censored, then it's ok...

Check your ego at the door my friend...

So its censorship resistant than, whats your point? My suggestion doesn’t make nostr any less censorship resistant, it just provides a tool for cleaning up spam on relays, noone has to use the tool. Get a grip dude

Let me be clear--I see Nostr as the savior of online communication . We (as its stewards) need to be EXTREMELY careful to not destroy it as it grows and matures.

Conceptually (IMHO) the answer is to create blacklists / whitelists that users subscribe to--those lists can be created by node operators or by external groups--and then the INDIVIDUAL chooses to enable those lists or not.

We all do this already--most here do not look at the "global" feed--but I would NEVER say "let's just turn off global--no one reads it". But that is exactly what you're advocating for.

Free and open communication is just that--and it's MY choice to decide what I will (and will not0 listen to. And it's NOT your choice to do that for me.
