If there were no taxes and no social support by the state, I think non-profit charities and companies would emerge that would fill the gap and compete against each other, which most effectively serve the needs of society. ppl would then choose which social company or charity they would invest in.

Think maybe sats, small fee, algo or some kind of rep/verfication system could solve it. As long as it is transparent and users can decide what algo and filter rules it's ok to fight bots & scammers.

tw, fb, ig lets you choose the algo (for you, following), the problem is the hidden algo aka manipulation, shadow-banning and censorship, as described in the tw files.

As of 2023, there are 11 European countries that have banned anonymous pre-paid SIM cards:

* Belgium

* Bulgaria

* Cyprus

* Estonia

* France

* Greece

* Italy

* Latvia

* Malta

* Spain

* Sweden

These countries have implemented the ban in order to make it more difficult for criminals and terrorists to use anonymous SIM cards to communicate. The ban requires that all pre-paid SIM cards be registered with the user's name and address. This information can then be used by law enforcement to track down criminals and terrorists.

There are a few exceptions to the ban. For example, tourists and visitors are still able to purchase pre-paid SIM cards without registering their details. However, they are typically required to provide their passport number or other identification.

The ban on anonymous pre-paid SIM cards has been met with mixed reactions. Some people argue that it is an important measure to protect public safety. Others argue that it is an infringement on privacy and that it does not actually prevent criminals from obtaining anonymous SIM cards.

Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to ban anonymous pre-paid SIM cards is a complex one. There are both security and privacy concerns to consider. However, the 11 European countries that have implemented the ban believe that the benefits outweigh the risks.

Austria has also banned anonymous sim cards

Delegated Proof of Stake (DPOS) Secret: Most stakeholders / users don't bother to vote for block producers (witnesses) or for DAO projects (proposals). Same as IRL unfortunately. If you want to have a say in the #hive DAO, you have to vote for the "Return Proposal #0".

#bluesky should use the #nostr protocol and call it a day, instead of creating another decentralized protocol, #bluesky could focus on nostr-compatible frontend development and high-performance relays instead.

Verified my username on #nostr :) How to verify? Find a verification service (nostrplebs.com, iris.to, nostrverified.com) and register your username, then add the username@address to the NIP-05 field in your account settings.

What #nostr can learn from #hive, #brave, #twitter: Nostr needs automatic zaps, a reward system. Basic idea: users pay a small monthly fee (for verification, username, advanced features etc). Let's say 1000 Sats p.m. The fee is then distributed every month to the frontends, relays the user uses, and to other nostr users the user likes. Powerful concept. Similar to #hive and #brave. Also tw is redistributing ad revenue to users now. Would you pay a small monthly fee for automatic zapping?

Tweets on #nostr are called Notes ⚑️

Added my account today but doesn't show up, maybe problem with tw api lockdown?

Login with Twitter doesnt work on https://nostr.directory , posted the pubkey tweet and note on nostr, but cannot find my user yet, probably problem with tw API lockdown and rate limit on tw?
