Same here.
The large public platforms will be increasingly controlled in order to prevent the impact of free speech and liberty ideas on public opinion.
Public perception is the *only* power that the managerial class of central planners have.
When that power is gone, their words and policies carries no more weight than the ramblings of a fool in a white-padded room.
Using Nostr is preparing for a world where free discourse will be heavily censored.

Even if we assumed your assumption was correct:
Let's assume an average $12 fee now (probably will drop back to lower levels)
$200 - $12 = $188
If we assume your thesis that fees will increase at the same pace as the savings:
$20,000 - $1200 = $18,800
Yeah, I'd rather have $18,800 stored safely on the base layer, vs storing that amount on L2.
Long term savings.
The value of sats will increase over time. If your $200 bitcoin is worth $20k at some point, then even if fees increase you are good.
Good work. Since we already have tabs on profiles, adding an extra tab for content won't hurt. No lengthy horizontal scrolling yet on the tabs.
"If we wish to preserve a free society, it is essential that we recognize that the desirability of a particular object is not sufficient justification for the use of coercion."

Thank you for an interesting read, Rune.
The price we pay for freedom depends on our response to slavery.
The risks of slavery should be clear enough to provoke a backlash in healthy, moral individuals.
Sovereignty is necessary for life; from galaxies, star systems, planets, regions, to nations, families, individuals and atoms. Attraction + separation in balance. When civilizations are incongruent with one another, individuals fight to have local jurisdictions that are aligned with the values and beliefs of the locals living there.
The Earth requires a particular distance from the Sun for higher life-forms to exist and survive. Our existence depends on a carefully weighted balance between attraction and separation.
Life is sovereign. Free agency requires a separation of powers, so that your reasoning is intact and truthful to your judgement, unassailed by external forces that seek to shape your values and ideas.
All instances of force have a horizon and fade via distance; all forms of control are local phenomena. This is why separation and sovereignty overlap. We want our planet close enough to the Sun to benefit our diverse species for the purpose of life and liberty, but we have no interest in joining with the Sun. Not all unions are beneficial.
Integrity and autonomy go hand in hand. A computer virus corrupts data by replacing local code with foreign, hostile executables. Tolkien made a similar analogy with Gollum; his internal values were corrupted by the ring. His previously sovereign mind was infected by the will of another, centralizing force, thus imprisoning him to that influence in a manner of dependency. His sovereignty of mind was sapped from him.
Centralization of power is anti-thetical to life at scale. The universe is a vast seeding-ground for a plethora of sovereign life-forms to come into existence. There is no centralized chain of command, just emergent, local spread of life. There are no bureaucrats dictating how life should be arranged via centralized edicts. If a creator exists, he is on the side of liberty and individual autonomy. Otherwise he would arrange the world very differently and we would have no free will of our own.
The creator didn't trap us forever in a paradise where we were completely safe, yet without full consciousness. We chose consciousness and individual sovereignty and the doors of a perfectly safe paradise were closed to us. That is the price of freedom. Every freedom comes with risks. When we choose liberty, we accept the accompanying risks because the tradeoff is worth it. We were not designed to become mindless automatons controlled by a corrupt managerial class.
I will end with referencing John Locke's position on defending freedom:
This is the way.

Pippin: is there a second breakfast?
Yes.
Bitcoin maxis don't trade.
We just don't announce it all the time.
Agreed.
The Martian is good although not comparable. There are a few decent movies, they just don't have the same impact.
When calling a police state by its real name becomes a hate crime against that police state.
