why are you caught in inclusive?

what is not inclusive about Nostr? anyone can make an account.

inclusivity is an idea and has become an ideaology.

i've watched it destroy 3 Sanghas. i've seen it increase the number of incompetent people in various businesses.

for example:

someone makes a book club then in the name of (fucking) inclusivity John joins and lines to fly kites and in the name of inclusivity they add kite flying, then Susan joins and likes riding bikes so they add to at too ... sooner rather than later you have a 'nothing' group.

the major social media apps and media (tv and film) all cater to the lowest common denominator of 'society' (idiots). american TV writing and plots are at an elementary school level.

further, putting aside the filthy corporate advertising, major social media apps don't do anything without people. if there were no people on them they would be just still. the reason FB, Shitter, etc. are so bad IS exactly the people on them and how they use them.

Nostr in part is good because it auto-filters out most idiots.

(PS you are not an idot for asking the question. asking questions a d wondering why are signs of intelligence. accepting what is fed to you without critical thinking is moronic.)

no thanks.

the other platforms are censored in part because the people on them want it like that. they will want it here.

personal choice of platform isn't building a wall. anyone can make a Nostr account.

"inclusivity" is a DEI pipe dream (and worse); not everyone is meant to or wants to interact with everyone else.

we choose our friends IRL.

yeah. it's really hard for lots of people to take when they hear criticism of parents by an adult child but sometimes some people just should not be parents and the fallout from it is life altering.

there is some good that came from what happened to me but that still doesn't excuse blatant willful harm and a lack of remorse.

narcissistic personality disorder is not a recipe for being a functional parent.

exactly this is why I went for a walk earlier, away from people, made some sketches, wrote some, and came back feeling unpolluted

yep, and they have to understand that their kids may be angry later on

circumcism, I didn't want it, they did it when I was a baby, when confronted they couldn't even summon up even a fake apology

if they had taken responsibility then I'd respect that, they didn't

my take: it's abuse unless the person is old enough to consent to it

i had that conversation with my parents as a teenager in the 1980s, they stuck their heads in the sand like good Baby Boomer ostriches including "everyone was doing it" πŸ™„

Yes, same as any app- if it logs the IP, it will be the one you connected from- if using a vpn then the vpn IP…

One thing here you might want to consider for regular internet browsing is dns-leaks.

https://www.dnsleaktest.com/results.html

This would be if the vpn is not configured correctly- your ISP might still be able to see your dns requests.

So the website will still see the vpn IP (OK hiding from web service)

But your ISP could see your dns requests (failure hiding from your internet provider)

The solution there is to make sure your dns requests are also going through your vpn, and/or TOR

thanks. DNS leaks covered already.

if you have iTunes stuff, you can sub to their music thingy and download non-drmed versions of anything you own in Windo$e or MacO$ then promptly unsub πŸ™ˆπŸ™‰πŸ™Š
