The issue is that primal tends to be where a lot of people are onboarded to nostr. And their caching server, whether intentional or not, can just completely make you nonexistent to users on primal. If that is possible, what’s the point of nostr anymore? What are we accomplishing with all these relays if the setup is similar to Twitter?

There are over 1 billion English speaking people and only 500 people and bots follow me on nostr. My life is not built on needing more than a few people to interact with and so far Primal has been a great way for me to interact with a few other interesting people(including you). There are millions of other conversations going on around us all the time that we don’t know of. If Primal happens to block you, use the npub you still control to build of community of people who don’t use Primal and carry on. I’m thankful for all the people building the nostr ecosystem at virtually no cost to me.
