there has been an insane amount of hate directed toward "core devs", aka me and a handful of people. please don't lecture me about being shallow and counterproductive. all the core devs I know are extremely thoughtful when they consider changes, in terms of how it may effect decentralization and incentives. seeing most of nostr attacking some of the best devs in this space that are working tireless to defend bitcoin against centralizing effects has been pretty disgusting.

Well, we can probably just, as they say, agree to disagree because I find the core developers turning themselves into some sort of priest class as disgusting as any of the stupid things that I've heard people on the other side of the argument, throwing out. Again, referring to users of the software as cattle or cultists is disgusting. And the people who run nodes and even the people who just use the software not only have a right to say what they think about the direction of the project, but a duty to. And I feel as strongly that name-calling and polarized shallow arguments from their side is just as bad. None of that helps. All it is is an easy way to virtue signal and plant your flag on the side that you want to be recognized as being a member of, in my opinion.

But this PR was presented by core as “mostly unanimous”. How do you guys actually decide on this kind of issue? What’s the vote count for and against this PR? As an external I have no idea whatsoever. In the debate core/knots presented on bitcoin++ we trust that the 3 core people who spoke represent the majority of core devs thinking, isn’t this the case?
