Been saying this for a while, we left BitcoinTalk and into DelvingBitcoin[talk]
Benevolent Dictator platforms put pressure on the mods–It **invites** bullshit.
Have we learned nothing?
Bitcoin-Dev Discussion would be amazing on Nostr, but people prefer to learn the hard way.

I second this. Shifting it to nostr would be great.
Bitcoin needs other implementations besides Core, and people vote with the implementation they run. Take the power out of a small group of devs.
Nostr FTW 100%...
Having said that, "theariard" wasn't the guy who threw a tantrum a while ago and rage quit LN development, and now he's butthurt at Core developers?
This is really concerning. Especially the allegations that there's PRs that are intentionally introducing attacks on nodes from Core.
Sounds like a new branch is needed maybe core devs have had a gun-to-head moment with the state.
This also highlights the need for core contributors to stay anonymous. Craig Wright was a good incentive but this is another reminder.
You should really consider making an episode with contributors to shed light on this issue.
One thing leads to another… #GitNestr
Do you think opensats would sponsor somebody to build it?
I think I laid out a reasonable rough vision on the ML.

* NIP-32 labels to post to a given group, and moderate entries in it
* user selected moderator list
* a markdown kind (might already exist, I haven't been keeping up) for discussion content
* POW to overcome potential visibility issues
* Archive client that looks like mailman archives
Eventually it would need email integration via some kind of self-hostable bridge
What I am thinking is we should not run any new bitcoin core version until we have full transparency again.
Man, bitcointalk is so bad. But so well indexed by Google.
