I don't get how people have such a positive spin on Assange's release. If it's some sort of victory, it's only a personal one to him and his family, not to the rest of us.
The cost for his freedom was the Truth and a warning shot to any potential daring journalist.
I'm not faulting him for taking the deal, I would do the same, but let's not pretend this is a huge win.
In short: it's not about muting a username literally but better muting an npub
What he means is that if you mute an npub, it does not mute notes written by other users that contain/mention that npub.
That happens to me and it's very annoying 🫠
Relay operators always had the freedom to shadowban and censor that was never in question.
Unlike mastodon, nostr still has:
* Identity ownership: no relay operator can take it or delete it
* Data ownership: content and social graph is not owned by relay operators and can be easily backed up
* Data authenticity: data cannot be untampered by relay operators, everything is cryptographically signed
* Data mobility: the same verifiable data can be moved to other relays easily
* Multiple communication channels: the ability to use multiple relays means that a single one cannot cut you off from the rest of nostr
What is possibly missing:
* Data discoverabilityv: if you use niche small relays due to big relay censorship, other users might not easily get your content. Outbox model mitigates this.
The message is actually the ethical thing to do, relative to the evil thing which would be a shadow ban.
There's no point entertaining "bitcoin is inevitable" proponents as serious people.
Good luck shutting down the entire internet instead of just 3 or 4 central points
Endpoint IPs would be blocked, just kicks the can down the road.
There's not enough hours in a day 😭. I cannot get anything done, leave everything half way, get constantly interrupted.
Suddenly it's bedtime. Repeat.
Even with DKIM, SPF and DMARC my emails still went to spam for gmail and microsoft accounts. I got so frustated that I gave up on email self hosting.
Dude if I had the time and patience, I would bring up all the notes and tweets from everyone advocating for ecash as the best and most serious "scaling" solution.
This kind of coping and justifications are the same shitcoiners use when their token thanks: "you should only invest what you're willing to lose", "DYOR", etc. It's very dishonest.
How much ecash is in circulation and what controls their issuance?
You're the captain now, it's freedom time 😅
