Replying to Avatar DefiantDandelion

In my opinion. The resiliance to censorship comes from the redundant relays and the number of different clients using the same protocol. There are no guarantees that a particular client is uncensorable. Only that with so many to choose from, through many different channels, the particular client and relay is irrelevant. Users that were blocked from Damus in China on their iPhones use Plebstr or snort or when those are blocked perhaps a specific Chinese based nostr client and set of relays spreading via word of mouth to their friends and family. I would expect that Chinese government would be blacklisting all publicly known relays for example. One client fails and two replace it, one relay goes down and two replace it, like the heads of a hydra. The relays are redundant and the clients are redundant. Damus is just one of those clients. And every client that is open source will be Re distributable with little effort. Nostr is not the client, it is not the relay, it is the protocol. Just my thoughts. 👍
