💯 And that's something heavily underrated about Nostr that is usually an issue with centralized social media -- it is generally Tor/VPN friendly. That could change if relay ops have issues with spam, but for now it's true at least. View quoted note →

Two things can simultaneously be true: 1) I want Nostr to succeed. 2) I don't love what it is today. Thankful for all those continuing to work on Nostr and the broader ecosystem 🫂 I only criticize out of love and to be sure that people understand that there are actually tradeoffs with Nostr! We need dissenting opinions on here.

If we can't have honest, divergent opinions about the state of Nostr without people being abject assholes about it, then my bearishness will 100% prove true. Being able to openly discuss issues with each other without purely strawman, insulting replies is vital to the success of any project like this, even more so because its success relies on social networks. Read through the replies to this and enjoy a healthy response to criticism 😅 View quoted note →
