Oddbean new post about login | logout Most people only consume online. Being censored is not an issue for them because they don’t speak in the first place. To position a protocol as censorship resistant is to appeal to a small minority. I think a lot more people care about having to put up with crappier services at ever higher prices due to platform lock in. Nostr addresses this.
Yup, I'm barely use social media, if you check my newsfeed I only post about progress update for lume, and barely talk about other topic.
Social media is so overrated and not the most valuable problem to solve.
There should be a place for Nostr devs to post. A Nostr developer community.
Maybe the trick to raising consumer concern about censorship is to remind them that their access to unapproved content is being restricted? Then again maybe that would only condition them to accept censorship? nostr:note16cx8p2vxw3qlj5knau3qzdggkatazdxy4nhzz4eh5y486ywm6lqq5hv9z0
Censorship is only ever applied when an opinion or fact that is unpleasant to those in power reaches a larger stage. Freedom of speech applies as long as it has no reach. It only becomes unpleasant when it has a wider reach. I think it is important that nostr gives these opinions and facts a place of refuge at the latest when they are censored, accounts are blocked and employers/landlords are forced to terminate contracts.
Good take ser
