This isn't about editing yourself.

It's about other users editing your notes. Rather than having a conversation with on where they disagree, they can now passively aggressively send you rightspeak edits to your speech.

Two completely different experiences.

You can reject the suggestion.

Sure, but you're not answering my point.

It seems highly probable to me that once a few SJWs and snowflakes arrive on nostr they will be forking (aka censoring) everyone with their PC ways of speaking. Forking allows a passive agressive underhanded means of doing it, rather than open discussion. Free speech and open discussion with a wide array of intelligent people is why I'm here. Anything that openly divides the nostr user base causes the whole protocol to lose its value, in my opinion.

I'm not sure I'm following. No one can edit my note without my approval. If they fork it, it's the same as copy paste as it shows them as the author.

Does it 🤔 maybe I've been misunderstanding how forking works.

I will be blocking those people and rejecting their edits.

But it sounds very annoying! A new path for low-effort dDoS of targeted accounts, like our current crop of "reply bots" but less obvious...

Yes, it does sound annoying. I think an opt out option should be provided, but that's being rejected. Currently looking for an alternative to Amethyst... Any ideas?

I'm waiting to see Michael J's library - nostr:nevent1qqspyc7xkg5lr049smcw420gm73vqucx6d6d80ycg3gkryqckv3chlcprfmhxue69uhhg6r9vehhyetnwshxummnw3erztnrdaksygrszgsjsfemmsr6lxl8wf06t39uplq5dpntasudgsmqm39udnqchypsgqqqqqqshuad5d

That will make it very easy for people with minimal programming talent (me, even!) to spin up new clients of all different sorts!

Ooh, very interesting indeed. I guess for now I just have to be patient with the nostr protocol.

Give it some time, I'm working on this and other Nostr-related projects about an hour per day, so it's slow going, at times. I'll try to make each release self-contained and stable, though, so people can pick it up early and benefit from updates as they come out.
