That is the problem, you can't do spam fight without censoring, therefore, letting the users to do the censoring themselves on what they consume is the only logical path if you want to build under the ethos of censorship free...
In Amethyst, you can block people and hastags, that should be enough for now, you won't see that content/user on your Amethyst front end. At least it is your choice, not the one of a relayer reading your messages and the ones of the people that replays to you (automated or not, irrelevant and a no-no implementation) to determine if it should be censor or not. Honestly, more of the same BS fiat social network crap but managed by a differences crowd... Yes awesome additional features related to Bitcoin, LN, ecash, etc, but if we are going this path, let's do X2.0 ... It looks like that is what we are trying to build, or with 0XChat a Telegram 2.0 (my favorite app but still, same core issue)

Avoiding the large relays and the paid relays that censor and the new even worst trend pedaled by the master devs of censorship the WOT relays... is the way to go, and by doing so your experience will be slower but at least less censored, avoiding Primal and Damus is a must, so far Amethyst is decent, hopefully Victor will be more inclined to respect the ethos of #Nostr

Have you seen any violence or political incorrect post or even pornographic content in your posts or the feeds lately , specially in Primal? In the replays in the "influencers" feeds, which are honey pots for ads and pedaling ideas, propaganda or simply onlyfans soft porn?
That content may be ugly and you may not want to see it, others welcome it, I block it and thus little by little curate what I watch, yet, it will show again since there will be those that try to profit from it and will automate the advertising of their narrative, ideology or product, that is unavoidable unless you ...wait for it... Censor content, which is where we are, at the point that I spent more time in X than here... The irony...
A newb will not know that, the vast majority will use Primal or Damus and experience a fairly censored and curated content...
If the path of #Nostr is to be X, so be it, but broken promises a failed ethos from the core is not a good start

2024-09-16 09:49:59

The amount of censoring in #Nostr is unreal, the irony!
Having a social experience with no censorship should be the dream and it suppose to be the ethos of Nostr
Go woke, go broke, promise a censorship resistant protocol and instead to deliver that, become more of the same shit, go broke either way

Yes, a private DNS is useful in some circumstances, but bear in mind, it is another vector of data sharing, you need to trust that DNS service, they have your IP (one more party) and the log of the sites you are visiting, after all, that is their function, to resolve the sites addresses. Proton VPN, Mullvad and IVPN all have their own secure DNS which filters ads and malware, by using those VPNs with their default DNS setting you have more cyber sec, removing one vector of data sharing

If you are connected to a VPN service and ANY of the servers listed above are not provided by the VPN service then you have a DNS leak and are choosing to trust the owners of the above servers with your private data.

Problem is, going that way you end up in censor land, and therefore unappealing and hated.
If you use paid relays, little to no use, it become a tiny Eco chamber.
Leaving it open to everything is the way, using clients that filter the content to hastags you follow and people you follow should suffice. And for those that love to pay for services, paid relays censoring everything they hate to read, their money, their choice , for everyone else, freedom!

The European Commission president (Ursula von der Leyen) is the epitome of hypocrisy.
The lack of moral of this individual and all her supporters in the #EU is unreal.
Questioning and demonizing the peace efforts of the president of Hungary Victor Organ is, without questions, the most disgusting act a diplomat or politician can do in a time of war, when thousands of children are losing their fathers, were millions are being displaced, when children and woman and elders are suffering every day in the current multiple war zones.
War may be justified by some, defining themselves as victims or defending themselves from an existential threat. But diplomacy should never be avoided.
Shame on the #EU and any other country avoiding diplomacy, embarrassing and disgusting.
We need more adults sitting in the table and less unelected incompetetnt officials destroying the #EU

True, although caution is advised, the human-readable address comes with less privacy, since a DNS service is being used their IP addresses may be exposed, if they are activists and in potential danger they should understand the risk

2024-07-11 18:52:05

Very good question
Although, history repeats and rhymes... and apparently does it often... therefore...
Bitcoin is becoming a good example, most development around bitcoin is about monetization, utility, but not security, nor making it censorship resistance.
Being in the know since 2010, not using it to transact since it is not built with sufficient privacy by default to achieve that, devs around fighting each other and not inspiring trust doesn't help neither.
Sometimes I wonder WTF Satoshi was thinking making such a wonderful mathematical marvel with no privacy to transact ...
As a store of value is the kind of the land, unbeaten, as a currency to transact, to pay for good and services, nah, pass, much better privacy options out there.

The lies and deception the governments of USA and EU constantly push to their citizens at all levels is at all time high.
The effect over people that we believe are intelligent and intellectuals is quite notable.
Hearing podcasts of these people calling out other countries governments as authoritarian or dictatorships when I guarantee that they never have been in those countries, they are just repeating the lies and deceptions their government keep pushing to them. The irony, they live in a country where tyrants are in power and every day their freedoms are cut, like the frog in boiling water they compensate and believe all is fine, theybaee the ones in a dictatorship not realizing it.
In some of those countries they call tyrannical regimes with dictators, if you go visit you will find happy people, free to do as they please, #Bitcoin and other crypto is traded and mined tax free! The health system works and is free, paid by the state with the taxes so it is the education. Public transport and infrastructure are maintained and working great. So the government is not only is doing its job, but doing it well, I wish we have that level of efficiency.
Bottom line, no tyranny, state and private money are mixed but marginally, the same president for many years is not a reason to believe is a dictator, as in France, a president, if doing a good job, can be reelected multiple periods, which is efficient, if you run a company and the CEO is doing a good job you don't change him/her every 4 years just because that is better for democracy, it is not, it is better for corruption and the interests of the donors that want a different puppet in the chair working for them instead of the people.

Perhaps I am wrong, but I take the current situation with the high fees in the mempool as a good thing for few reasons:
1. More understanding that there are bad actors paid or with their own agendas that wants to hurt #Bitcoin
2. Realization that staying in Layer 1 is not an option running a business model that relays on #Bitcoin for retailing to the masses
3. Understanding that upgrading your business model to support LN⚡ is a must
4. More development is required to make the LN⚡more robust and the channels bigger, $300 to $400 won't cut it for B2B
5. New solutions are required in Layer 2, but they need to be decentralized or they will not take off. Competition is key for innovation, LN⚡is alone eating all the cake and therefore with little pressure to push forward, Michael Saylor is doing the ecosystem a service protecting his massive investment, in my opinion, he gets it and works on what is most required

#USA incompetent leaders, as any brainless idiotic bully will do, threatens #Uganda with economic "repercussions" (sanctions) if they pass their new proposed law criminalizing LGBT+...
First of all, if you are not Ugandan, what their lawmakers do with their countries is their responsibility and problem, their citizens need to deal with it for good or bad as any other country should do.... Independently if we like it or not.
The attitude of USA thinking they can rule the world is just sad, but the worst part is that they do it ,as any other bully, only to the small countries , Why they don't do the same to #Qatar or #SaudiArabia? Is LGBT+ legal in those What about Egypt or Morocco?
it is unbelievable that USA became a laughing stock so rapidly, and to fight a country that can flight back they hide behind another country and need their thugs buddies to help out...
The fall a super power suppose to be gradual, with the incompetent leaders they have, it is happening so fast it is hard ro keep up...

In my opinion, paid relays are gate keepers, if you are advocating them, you are not understanding what this tech is about, go to twitter.
And if you believe that is the only way this platform is going to succeed... I will say you not only don't get it, you are part of the problem. As I run my own node, I run my own relay, which will evolve in features allowing me to add filters among other perks. The most people run relays, the more decentralized and censor resistance #NOSTR will be
As we educate the masses on "not your keys, not your coins", we should educate them as well on "not your relay, not your data, no freedom of speech"
Learn more about relays, and I suggest you stay away from paid relays as a filthy virus working slowly to penetrate the community and control it, by censoring what the "relays owners" believe you should read, watch and believe. As Twitter is doing right now.
Soon, as with PiHole, there will be community generated and updated filter list that we will be able to implement in our own relays and as well in the front apps itself as features
Clearly, few greedy elements of the community plus few bad apples will try to monetize big on the protocol instead to push for decentralization and user control, in my opinion, they are the enemy within
Since you got here, it means you care about the subject, so few perks for you:
Sites to monitor relays:
https://nostr.watch/relays/find
https://stats.nostr.band/#daily_active_users
Site with instructions to install your own Bitcoin Node, Electrum server, LN Channels, PieHole, Tailscale VPN and your NOSTR Relay:

Finding people that post good content is not an easy task, most known figures and "influencers" post mainly non sense or uninteresting information most of the time, yet, they have many followers due to the fact that "they are known"
Nostr is a fresh start, I follow few of those so called "influencers",butt I keep cutting them down to the ones that add value , I take some time every day as well looking for those key people out there, intelligent, critical thinkers that add value to my day to day and follow them

Avoid censorship and profiling, use public relays and use your own, if you are running a node and you have LN channels configured, for sure you are savvy enough to run your own relay and add any filters you want
And after that, if you keep using 18 relays you will not notice any difference, you need to delete all the relays and use only the ones you configured yourself
BTW, thanks for your content, much appreciated!
