Yep. Nostr is not like a network of personal servers like Urbit. We don’t share our data p2p.

You give data to relays and it is theirs to do whatever they want with.

A hood heuristic is “if you can’t delete it, it isn’t yours”.

inb4 “nothing can be deleted off the internet!!!” If that were true, we wouldn’t need the internet archive to help keep things from disappearing.

oh yeah, I hear ya there! So is Nostr more like a decentralized cloud service?

Probably a better comparison yeah. I’m not saying it’s a bad thing btw. It’s cool. I just hate to see people get the wrong idea about what Nostr is and get mad later on when they realize it’s not true
