Wow I just found nostr:npub13ndpm2hm9hud4azsq5euhf5mv3d05r90wymwxsd7rdn29609hhvqp60svh. He is so *smart* and not at all "retarded." 😏

I'm not sure if I should bother correcting his misunderstandings of nostr, or his misjudgements of what is and isn't censorable and why, or just ignore him. Does he listen or just talk? We will see.

I like pkarr. I like using Mainline DHT directly even more. I'm using it in Mosaic. But it is also censorable. The bittorrent DHT may not be subject to sybil attacks, but it only has 3 (AFAICT) public well-known on-ramps. Take those three down and people who don't already have a node list can't get on. Nostr is not better for bootstrapping (finding a person's relays) but it isn't much worse. There is a weak centralizing pressure to put relay lists on a the same well known popular relays, but those change over time and the pressure changes over time, and good clients republish to the current popular set which can move. The main issue is that client devs are all over the map in terms of how they choose to deal with the situation, and some aren't even using outbox model. IMHO (emphasis on H) the main benefit of the DHT is someone new with a single key they want to follow can get started without knowing anybody nor any relays/servers.

There is no censorability difference between homeservers in pkarr and relays in nostr. You can run your own, or you can outsource it, in both cases. One isn't more censorship resistant than the other.

When I look at https://github.com/pubky I see among top rpos "pubky-app" which says it is a deprecated repository, and will be replaced with pubky/franky. But pubky/franky does not exist. So IMHO there is no opensource pubky, which means I won't be using it and I recommend against.

Also what the hell is wrong with believing you I am smart?!

You don't think you smart?

You can't see that some people are dumber than you?

Like, cmon. It's just self-awareness.

You are an ass to people that you think are dumb. I don't like that, they can't help what the are, I prefer to humbly educate and explain and be suprised that people aren't as dumb as I might at first think. So I reserve the right to be an ass to you about it. Although I really haven't been an ass to you, I just made one snide remark.

Your whole post was a retaliation, just like most people here. And like them it warped you into equivocating and even lying by mistake.

I am not mean to people because they are dumb, i am candid because they are ignorant, and deluded, and i dont have time to humor the qty of people that wished i didnt say the things i do.

I cant know how smart these people are, but i can judge how genuine they are pretty easily.

I am sorry if my style offends anyone, but times are retarded and I have shit to say.
