I don't want censorship on #Nostr
Might as well use Facebook and Twitter then
😡
Then don’t use clients that censor. The bot has no effect in most clients.
Won't help if most people just use a Coinbase, uh I mean Primal
How is Rabble’s bot censorship?😂
If it is reporting what I'm saying, it is trying to censor via the relays, "genius"
Anyone could make a bot that reports anything you do on nostr, does that mean nostr censors you? If people use clients that hides your content based on Rabble’s woke ass bot, they should switch clients. Hell, for all we know, maybe they even use it intentionally because it fits their way of life🤷♂️
In their github they specify that they expect the snitch lists it fabricates to be used by relays too. Much less obvious than clients.
My issue with this is not just that it's censorship and that it causes ME to have to spend resources and time avoiding it by finding uncensored clients and relays. The long-ranging problem is that it turns relays and clients into editorializing platforms, which opens the door to regulation and prosecution. It's basically either Nostr becoming Facebook/Google, or being shut down and people running relays and writing apps getting sent to jail.
This is a credible threat. Normalise using Tor Hidden Service relays!
The current Nostr influenx00rs don't care. Virtue signaling is more important.
I've said it so many times already. I couldn't care less is they shut it down. I lived before social media and never needed it. And I deleted or stopped using all my accounts several years ago and lived happily all the same. Then Nostr came out and I decided to give it a go. When it goes to hell, I'll simply move on again.
Embrace the reports 😌
Don’t worry about it. That only works for his Berkeley blue hair enclave. Woke on the whole is already dead. But Silicon Valley expats with money will keep little pockets alive.
I was thinking about introducing a new game, "@Reportinator Rodeo", where we compete to rack up reported posts over each week. We zap the winner and share their best reported notes.
I'm thinking to prevent low-effort notes, we only score non-profanity notes with original content. Need to tightly define this so that a script can keep score.
Your thoughts?
