 The "no algorithms" statement isn't entirely accurate, there are many options possible, including for discovery:

I don't think Amethyst, Damus or Gossip have started integrating DVMs yet though. 
 algorithms don't exist on the protocol level though - so it would be your choice to have one. But fair point 
 Yeah I think this could be merged with the point about blocking things yourself:

"With Nostr there are no algorithms or censorship unless you choose to apply an algorithm or block accounts yourself - you are in control, not corporations or the state."
