"Mastodon is just a network with a million small censors instead of a single large censor."

He was very inspiring


Its also ripe with pedophiles.


I mean, that's an improvement. But nostr is a solution


Looool. He’s good 👍


In the end it will depend on someone's values. Because nostr relay managers are also free to set the rules they want, including censoring this and that.


This is so true. It’s actually much worse because you get censored a little at a time, and no one even tells you. Before you know it, you’re just talking into a void.


It's easier to avoid the fediverse bullshit on Nostr just by changing relays, and going on as usual.

It becomes a problem only if EVERY relay is censored.


Freedom to censor is a freedom all the same. Each instance can set its own rules. Much like the rest of humanity, sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes Nostr works, sometimes it doesn’t.

X and Meta never work lol


Nostr relays can censor too. Improvement is that your identity is not tied to the relay.


Uhhh such an accurate description of Mastadon:

:smart thinking:


Either way, the dumb server/smart client architecture should push most of that to the edge


True, makes sense


Users can boycott censoring relays


ELI5 Nostr vs Mastodon by ChatGPT.
Is this bascially correct?

Mastodon, in implementation, is also not designed well to run an instance with a single or a few users.


nostr is also just a a network with a million small censors instead of a single large censor. it is not a problem with censor, what Mastodon fuck up is the ID not owned by users


Also nostr can faced similar problem that gab faced in mastodon when it was blocked on software level by many clients, and good luck to find any right wing server in this protocol right now...
