OCEAN isn't censoring coinjoins. They are filtering people who lazily use the blockchain as their data hoarding closet. You fell for a moral panic manufactured by Scamourai, and you should use this opportunity to ask yourself a few questions about your social media consumption habits.

I'm not in a moral panic. I just think there's no such thing as spam because spam is subjective. If it should be fixed, it should be fixed and th PR can merge.
Spam is an exploit of a protocol.
Should be fixed on protocol level then
Unfortunately, changing a protocol of value is a high-stakes game that, in the worst case scenario, expands the attacck surface. SegWit+Taproot demonstrate that.
And don't lump me into any sort of established camp, because I admit that SegWit+Taproot expanded Bitcoin's attack surface. Nobody saw inscriptions coming, and big blockers and bcashers and all those other reprobates have no right to be doing a victory lap. But the first step to recovery is admitting there is a problem.
I have no camp 😊 except small blocks maybe, because my Raspi likes small meals
Good point. I don't know enough about SegWit & TapRoot to judge this, but yeah more code is more attack surface.
Precisely. Submit the PR and see if it's merged. If not, for off.
I dunno, if people are willing to pay the fees, why filter at all? Unlikely a winning strategy from my pov.
It's assuming that profit is the highest rational priority, and a minority of people are willing to leave money on the table to prove that isnt a universal truth; just a general one.
Disclaimer: I've never dealt with inscriptions or ordinals and I'm not a fan tbh. I am also not a fan of the current fees.
But I'm not a fan of censorship either.
Let's be real, profit is what's it about for miners, home space heaters excluded maybe. Then there is choice. Why would a miner choose a pool that yields less returns than another one? This is what a meant with winning strategy.
I generally like the approach and ideas of Ocean, but saying you are decentralising mining and being heavily opinionated at the same time doesn't fit. For me at least.
P.S. I had a transaction sitting in the pool for 4 months this year because of fee spike. I know how it feels 🤣
The opinion is only consequential as long as OCEAN does not have full Stratum v2 protocol implemeted and deployed. Once v2 is in place, individual miners can make their own block templates, independent of what the pool coordinator wants. That is the decentralisation potential of OCEAN
That sounds good and is what I would like to see 👍 Ping me when it's there and I'll try. Until then I'll stick to another pool with my little warm making device

#Mining is not a Bitcoin priority. It's important. But not a priority. Miners are supposed to be dumb drones.
That's all it was in the beginning, and that's all it is today. The priority are the Virtuous full nodes who maintain and protect the Bitcoin #protocol and #security, at THEIR! EXPENSE.
It's essential to keep the expense of the Virtuous full #nodes to an absolute minimum. This must be the absolute number one priority for maintenance and #code development going forward.
It's The Virtuous Full Nodes that maintain YOUR! ownership of YOUR! Bitcoin. They are #Satoshi #Nakamoto. Those who seek to undermine the Virtuous full nodes. Also seek to steal your Bitcoin. Think about it..🤔
WE! are #Bitcoin..🧡😊🦍
What’s wrong with samourai?
They are just following a pretty consistent pattern of sowing discord among bitcoiners when they are asked to account for their own technical decisions
