Oddbean new post about login | logout How would you delete an account in a protocol that whole purpose is censorship resistance? It's the same as asking to block a bitcoin transactions.
You can signal to relays right ?!
Relays don't have to comply. I can run my relay and broadcast your notes all over again. That's why you can ask relays to delete a note but it's hard to effectively have it deleted because your note can be on hundred of relays, that's the point of the protocol, not being able to censor your notes, even if it's you who wants to censor it with a delete.
Sure ! I just gave you example that it’s possible and there are def solutions we don’t know yet. Same applies to delete and edit notes
Also, if you think there is a solution nothing is stopping you or anyone to implement it. nostr:nevent1qqsgmlerlhljcdv4thwm6xpcr3d0er28p3hrr2fl57r3damcyn8fxyqprfmhxue69uhkummnw3ezucm9wf3kzarjdamxztndv5hsygy2aa6u5fa0qzn0wrq5sedw22rqenwrdr6xfxw8ea4jx54snfcf75psgqqqqqqslmj98r
I’m not a dev 😖 Just a pleb
You can make a proposal of how it would be done, and devs can tell you if it work or not. From my understanding as a dev, it wont be possible to "delete" accounts, best you can do it switch to a new npub, announce it publicly in the protocol and somehow (web of trust or other nip) your followers will follow the new npub and the old one is just ignored by your web of trust.
That’s what Pablo already proposed with a PoW implementation
