Think I'ma just stick to not updating core for now lol
Can someone explain succinctly what all this argumentation I’ve been seeing lately is all about? I’m interested in running a bitcoin and lightning node and I want to get a bitaxe or two. I’m not a coder, though so I need to know if this would be way over my head.
Pretty standard open source contentiousness, nothing to concern yourself with as a first time node runner, just go for it!
Bitcoiners just love fighting with each other, a tale as old as time
I'm surprised you don't see Core's node dominance to be more of a threat, regardless of the spam pushing, censoring trannies running things over there. I thought we liked decentralization.
We do like it, it's all a matter of perspective, many people argue knots is the one doing the censorship
Run whatever node implementation you believe in
True, I wish Knots was a more serious alternative. I'd like to see others.
Check out Libbitcoin
It's WIP
And yet core is worse. Seems like we have two shitty choices.
Well for all the people that can't shut tf up about "muh jpegs" and such, they can always fire up a http://thebitcoin.foundation/ node which is segwit-free. I have had one running for many years, and still transact with it!
I don't trust lukedash, lopp, todd, trace, breedlove, mccormack, ver, pomp, saylor, lummis, rfk jr, musk, trump ...
I can agree with them on select topics, but they lost my trust and very sus with everything they are pushing.
