Nostr Web Client

If you wanna know why japanese nostr devs are so gang ho on creating local only instances:

> Twitter users came over [misskey.io] and started harassing artist and people so they stopped allowing people from the West to sign up.

> I think VPNs are blocked by default as i couldn't reach the sign up api link with one but with my west IP it said i was blocked so the API isn't responding to western IPs allowing us to not sign up

The misskey case is mostly because of loli, westerners a savage troglodites because loli gets associated with the real thing.

welp at least this is the official story that I know and the reason why they don't allow signups from the west.

I doubt it’s just loli. Wasn’t there a recent shitstorm over twitter about a cutesy family ad on McDonald’s?

Oh right, that causes a lot shitstorm on the sjw minions.

Found it. Did twitter warriors really became seething with rage because of this?

Aeontropy 2y ago

No their seething mostly because of egilrs doing a sexualized version of the mother and illustrations of the family in question. lol

Apparently they also insta-blocked EU because they have no time to deal with GDPR bullshit.

I was thinking of this and i can truly respect that. Im sure there will be clients thats regular joe smoe like me will know of because it will probably be an exclusive client for devs or country

I also think it’s totally fine. Just like in the old day of obscure BBS or forums.
