This FUD is super confusing, literally no one has to KYC to use X, and you can easily use things like SMS verification services, email aliases, and crypto-funded debit cards to even have a blue check without giving personal info. I understand people want X users to move to Nostr, but lying to them isnt a moral or effective strategy. If that changes to require KYC, of course everyone sane should leave and invite every follower off to Nostr. But let's please not lie to try and bring people to Nostr. View quoted note →

💯 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.
