If the relays banned Alex wouldn't they ban the redirect to his new relay?

It can, we just need to re-do everything.

Intent with the raid idea is that the users have to have the relays that Alex Jones trusts already in their settings to get the list of his updated relays. And those relays could specialize in just serving deplatform risk mitigation.

Idea might not be fully baked. Dunno. Maybe there is something there, not sure.

Seems reasonable for fans to connect to a new relay to fetch that content.

Big names, or at least big communities, should run their own relay’s. They have an incentive to do so after all - especially if they earn a significant amount from zaps.

Think of it like the reddit model where each subreddit (community) would have dedicated relay’s ran by community members.

I don’t think we should have these big global apps that everyone relies on for relay’s

What event holds the list of relays that I use links to my pubkey?

From what I see is the content section of the contacts event

But I don't see that in an NIP

yes and no?

the way you mention is very convenient however i still believe it’s people’s business to choose relays they want to listen to. especially when there will be many more relays with their own terms of service, maybe some even be theme-related, and so on.

can’t say for others, but for me it would be great if after opening account of a user, client could notify me “hey, can’t get his new posts, check out relays he’s writing to” – that’s exactly what’s happening then you’re following some independent journalist, right?

I don't know, that's why I am asking how the gossip model solves it.

I was thinking something that could go on the feed and be shared easily

People who do not support, do not care about or never heard about the "gossip model" -- which is basically the idea that clients should (mostly) automatically find people in wherever relays they are and fetch their notes from these relays -- here is a question for you:

What would happen if everybody is following Alex Jones on the 10 biggest relays, but they all collude to ban Alex Jones? Then Alex Jones starts publishing on a relatively tiny relay hosted in Colombiat. How can Nostr fulfill its censorship-resistant promises in this situation? Would all of his millions of Nostr followers have to manually open their settings and add his new relay address?

You hate dollars because they are fiat currency and a youtuber told you that's bad.

I hate dollars because there are demons inside of them fueled by the blood sacrifice of children to Mammon by means of tomahawk missiles.

We are not the same.

Indeed 😅👋🏻

My first day without Twitter or any other social network on my cell phone after 14 years. Good night 🫂⚡🌌

Speech has been unstoppable on the internet for quite some time. Examples: Alex Jones, Julian Assange, Pirate Bay, Tor onion services. Nostr is nowhere near the best tool for unstoppable speech. Nostr isn't even a very good tool for this, because relay owners can ban you, shadowban you, or censor posts without it being obvious.

And I did not say the freedom was not refreshing.
