The interesting thing about the protocol vs client aspect of #Nostr, is that it essentially achieves what Elon was hypothesizing with gloves-off “Heavy Metal Twitter” vs “Easy Listening (cat video) Twitter”.

Exactly 🎯💯
From USENET in the mid90s on I have used muting tools. Any client of any platform of any worth has always had them. It's only recently the Empire of Government and Corporate Oligarchs have decided users are too stupid to be be trusted to use them.
