But wait there's more...

Pubky Nexus is what makes content discoverable. Feeds, search, profiles — all run through it. Without Nexus, your content exists but nobody can find it.

https://github.com/pubky/pubky-nexus/blob/main/nexus-common/src/config/watcher.rs

line 23:
pub const DEFAULT_MODERATION_ID: &str = "uo7jgkykft4885n8cruizwy6khw71mnu5pq3ay9i8pw1ymcn85ko";

Whoever holds this key can tag any post, profile, or file and the Nexus watcher silently removes it from the index.

https://github.com/pubky/pubky-nexus/blob/main/nexus-watcher/src/events/moderation.rs

lines 40-54

posts, user profiles, files, tags. All erasable from discovery.

Your data survives on the homeserver. But if Synonym's Nexus can't find you, nobody else can either. pubky.app users are on Synonym's Nexus, with Synonym's moderation key, with no way to opt out. Self-hosters can override it, again, if they know to.

"Censorship resistant."
