Open source freedom tech is the way to true sustainable liberty. Love sailing, camping and music festivals.

Hope they do but many may fear they'll start from nothing more than a server and no connections if Bluesky deems them dangerous for whatever reason.

Take the risk and self censor with Bluesky for access to more content, or build on nostr and allow total freedom knowing you'll be able to connect to at leased %90 of the more limited user base.

I don’t really understand this kind of criticism (and not to pick on Will here, it seems to be from ~everyone).

Bluesky took a different approach - first build a product people want whose technology supports decentralization, and add the features the geeks want later. It’s easy to shit on their lack of decentralization, but Bluesky has made clear and consistent progress on that front since day one, and I assume they will continue to do so.

The result has been a product that’s growing (those user stats are pretty realistic, doubly so when you look at the number of accounts actually posting real content) way more than nostr with tons of anti-centralization features that nostr is missing (anyone can create a feed algorithm, and there are many, decentralized content tagging is a really cool innovation - different “adult content” tagging services, opt-in different moderation services, etc).

The federated model of Mastodon led to a trainwreck of fiefdoms run by weirdly obsessive and controlling mods, but Bluesky took that and addressed the issues by splitting moderation from hosting.

Sure, Bluesky’s hosting model means you don’t get the relay-redundancy that sets nostr’s censorship resistance apart, but that’s not all that hard to add in the future (with the sync assumption they make making it easier to make efficient, too).

Building the kinds of stuff Bluesky has on nostr is gonna take a huge investment, we can’t leave folks like Will stuck building critical nostr apps by himself. nostr:note1vpteqdxxlgkjndhghhlu4n47aj2sra5vgmdr465y4yfzwcshglvqrqann4

When the elites pay them to cut out any one they say from connecting via this protocol to the main app with all the users they could. Sure anyone will be able to make a competitor on the same protocol or a different one but connecting together in a decentralized manner will require their permission because the way they built it to monopolize the user base.

Woopdi doo they made a protocol that technically can be decentralized later on. Doesn't mean it is and they continue to significantly reduce the chances of it ever becoming freedom tech. It's still a twitter with no evidence that will change yet. I HOPE IM WRONG. Idc if it's nostr or bluebird I want to see government/elite resistant freedom tech and that shit is hard to build. How many Blockchains can be decentralized but aren't.

Giving a moment of silence for the #drone who's life I sacrificed for this shot over the summer... And now back to missing my #sailboat and #summer. And the new drones photos will make it look so beautiful next summer.

Almost would've believed you, but then I remembered my mom introduced me to nostr:nprofile1qqstzt0wugc7sklvr8e7fcl7ukyn63ym3ns4nmf2mnk0vqnz4l9x65qpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezumtfv3jxc6twvuhx67tydeeju6nsqythwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn5dacx2arg9e5kuen0te28kw s videos after she and her husband reversed his prediabetes and after finally rejecting the "public health" institutions you seem to be supporting here I changed my life. No more allergies, back pain, mouth sores, heart burn and future prospects on life flipped right side up.

You did the work, the schooling, now figure out what parts of it were lies or become a joke as others figure it out first.

It sure does. Honestly without Elon buying twitter I think we would have had a different outcome. Or the demochine just went to far this time. Not subtle enough.

Went to New York with my wife last week.

Ended up getting a really nice pic of Lady Liberty and a beautiful #Sailboat. I actually didn't have high expectations of #NY but I was pleasantly blown away. I could only imagine #sailing the waters around NY on such a #beautiful boat.

He allows Elon to walk in and thousands of government employees have to find a real job.

CNN realizing Americans aren't as stupid as they thought.

Hi Tim Cook, why does Siri populate with a photo of Kamala when asked when the election is? Apple

Kamala overestimated how stupid Americans are. Not sure big tech is enough to carry the demochine anymore.

Luckily the worst of the worst I think is blocked at the relay level once found out, however I feel once you see all these block events in your timeline you may find yourself seeing much content you rather had not seen in the first place. Once WOT is more available in clients you won't need to block accounts your follows blocked.

Maybe not a kind 1 post but I know when you report something Amethyst not only reports it but sends a reaction with alarm sign. I don't like it though cus if I report something I don't want to help advertise it in any way.

Ability to see a list of accounts your followers blocked could be nice though for those wanting to seek them out.

IDK about ONLY seed oils, but I drastically reduced plants when my mom convinced me to try carnivore. Used to take antihistamines for allergies every day, heard burn relief chews every day, nasal inhalant every night to breath for sleep, pain meds almost everyday for back pain. All that disappeared and my life honestly changed. Either way, not a religion and not worth judging over.

Everyone I know whose had a compromised account on the major social platforms never got it back no matter how hard they tried. Having a non-rotating key is important. if my key is compromised no bad actor can stop me from going in and posting "This account is compromised". they're complaining about something even X/Facebook/insta doesn't do well at. At least here once you find out you have a way Forward that doesn't include all your friends and family getting scammed.

I just pretend my asks are for the benefit of the world and not myself! 😉
