Bluesky is an echo chamber of wokeness on a constant witch hunt looking for “Nazis,” by which they mean anyone who doesn’t subscribe lock, stock, and barrel to their dominant yet ever shifting worldview. I’ve already deleted one account there and I’m well on my way to doing it again. I’m much less active than I was in the beginning.

What does this have to do with making relay communities more prominent?
Nothing. We could probably find a way to do something like that, but it might turn this into more of a siloed Mastodon-like environment. The inability to deplatform users is probably going to be a philosophical nonstarter for a lot of people.
I don't believe it's true deplatforming. For example if I decided to use ditto.pub and told all of my followers to go there, then Alex banned me, I'd just tell them all to go to derekiscool.pub and our social graphs come with us. I might be banned from a platform, but I'd just be moving to the next or building my own with relative ease.
Easier said than done. I don’t really want to be chasing people around to different isolated social network buckets. That’s basically what Mastodon was like and I hated it because I could never figure out how to find and follow anyone.
That could happen now if an app that you're using hard codes in the blocking of a npub. I guess NIP-29 apps are really only vulnerable to censorship in this regard?
I like the solution that nostr:npub1g53mukxnjkcmr94fhryzkqutdz2ukq4ks0gvy5af25rgmwsl4ngq43drvk is implementing for Iris.
