In nos2x options, should I have Handle Nostr links toggled to yes?

Nostrgram.co has lists. I haven't messed with them yet but it's a option.

just seems weird that none of these kinds of statements ever mention, "don't put your nsec into Damus." Is it b/c it's not dangerous or b/c nobody wanna ruffle feathers?

If I block/mute someone it is NOT censorship.

If someone else can block/mute someone from me it IS censorship.

Why do we need decentralized social communication? #[0] wanted to know why Nostr was better than other supposed "free speech" social networks like Gab or Truth Social. Here's why:

Increased Resilience: Decentralization can make protocols more resilient by reducing the impact of a single point of failure. In a centralized system, if the central authority fails, the entire system collapses. In contrast, decentralized protocols are less vulnerable to catastrophic failures, because there are multiple nodes, relays, or clients that can pick up the slack in the event of a failure.

Increased Security: Decentralization can also increase security by making it more difficult for bad actors to attack the system. In a centralized system, if a single point of failure is compromised, the entire system can be compromised. In a decentralized system, however, attackers would need to compromise multiple nodes, relays, clients, etc. in order to take down the entire system, which can be much more difficult to do or even impossible.

Improved Efficiency: Decentralization can also lead to improved efficiency. When decision-making is distributed, it can be done more quickly and efficiently. This is because decision-making can be delegated to the individuals or groups that are closest to the issue at hand, rather than having to wait for a central authority to make a decision.

Increased Transparency: Decentralization can also increase transparency by allowing for greater scrutiny of decision-making processes. When decision-making is distributed, it is easier to track and audit the decision-making process, which can help ensure that decisions are made fairly and impartially.

Increased Innovation: Decentralization can foster innovation by creating an environment where different ideas can be explored and tested. This is because decentralized systems tend to be more open and inclusive, which allows for more experimentation and collaboration.

If these sound familiar, it's because these above reasons are why we favor decentralized money. Bitcoin and Nostr go hand in hand in these schools of thought. I hope this helps! 🤙
