Clients and relays are going to do whatever their developers/operators choose to do, regardless of Reportinator or anything else.
There is nothing the collective “we” can do to stop anyone from making content reports, labels, or prevent anyone else from using them.
If your client or relay does something you don’t like, use a new one. That’s the value of the protocol.
Good advice, but the collective "we" need to make sure the conversation continues in public, not just behind closed doors where devs and operators can be persuaded that the userbase wants something they don't.
Very proud of the devs and operators we have, but we can't take this situation for granted.
ARE YOU OPERATING AN UNLICENSED NOTE TRANSMITTING RELAY, CITIZEN?
There is no public. Most people on Nostr don't even see my notes or use my relay.
We are all just npubs, voicing our personal opinions in our favorite private spaces and managing our private property, as we see fit.
There is no "we". There is only the protocol.
I can't agree with that, dear student of Rand.
The protocol developers and infrastructure operators remain largely human, and more subject to social pressure than they will admit.
That is a good thing. 😂 Being human isn't a fatal flaw.
Any developer makes something implementing NIP-01 or interpreting/analyzing events is a "protocol developer", BTW. So, that includes you, now, too.
Build what you want to build.
Until they change NIP-01 again - because some VC brought an e-girl to a conference...
But otherwise I agree, and awwww thanks!
Ha Ha, yeah, I've read Rand. Guilty.
We are who we quote, even paraphrased...
:p
Well if it's a paid relay, then leaving seems like a waste in that scenario, unless you get a refund.
Some work on subscription models, so you can just not renew.
Sucks if you paid for the year only to find out your notes are getting censored.
@Mazin I think it's only fair that people know that if they are using paid relays for premium service, that they EXPLICITLY know which relays are using 'Reportinator'/Microsoft moderation API to censor them, don't you?
Does wine interact with any of those relays?

Hold it right there, buddy. You just posted cringe.
We can do a lot.
