 lol join Elon and leave nostr. isn't that the opposite of progress? Elon is no angel. he wants your true identity via subscription.

 I don't care about hiding who I am, the greatest threat is and was government intervention and censorship. Jack Dorsey gave the FBI an office at Twitter, Elon told them to get fckd. X is the only major social media company that doesn't actively censor at the government's behest.

 x is a honey pot for central intelligence. 
it's not about hiding who you are, it's about the choice, to disclose what you want, not being forced to de-anon yourself to use his service. that's why I like nostr.

 Don't get me wrong I love decentralized currency and social media but we are not there yet. It seems we are talking apples and oranges, anonymity vs censorship. I am 100% on board with your anonymity argument, I was simply suggesting Dorsey could still be a voice against the government censorship machine since he knows first hand how entrenched they are in social media since he let the gov use Twitter as a propaganda machine.
