Using centralizing, invasive platforms for convenience is antithetical to everything that most people who want personal liberty espouse, especially when the people using those platforms are setting themselves up to get rugged (or even jailed) when those services are inevitably weaponized against them, and then nostr at large.
Not seeing the obvious threat and capitulating to the impulse to do that easy thing is so friggin' frustrating to see in people who are otherwise smart and capable. I'm not very much of either, but I'm very attuned to various threats to my personal liberty. I do not want every single video or photo I post to be sent through cloudflare or MS servers. It is so friggin easy for that to be misused. That's the point. Value your data, your life more than a "free" service. I don't use windows. I de-googled my phone. I use mostly FOSS in putting my limited time and energy into things that are not actively trying to strip me off my humanity. I think all of you should, too.

quotingWe're you aware that every pic you post through nostr.build is going through cloudflare? No? Neither was I. This is exceptionally disturbing.
