where is the chapter of antifa that isn't into communism and obssessed with transgenderism? where's the chapter of maga that isn't into military surveillence states and obsessed with the christian god?
from both extremes and all the way through the middle, political discourse in america is suffused with statist, coercive, collectivist mind viruses of one form or another.
voluntarism and stateless free market anarchism has no marketing nor mass-appeal game - more or less intrinsically and necessarily.
if fate is determined by memetics and collectivist mindshare, it doesn't look too rosy for individual freedom.
...then again, a free market #anarchist association doesn't need "mass adoption", it only needs willing exchange partners, strong opsec and defenses, and wealth. no matter if there is 1 adopter or 1 million. it is merely a permissionless, exit-preserving set of norms for interacting with others; anyone is free to participate or opt out any time. its a pattern of behavior. an open protocol.
you can run your own instance or join another that will have you.

Happy to report that nuclear war has been averted; truces signed.
We'll let the long arc of history determine how it shakes out.

thinking about forking
, stripping out all features and having it just pass requests through to your relay list; hosting it for free for anyone to use. a defacto "bypass cache" option people can use until such time as primal adds this setting natively.
it would need to do remote attestation to be worth it, or else i'm just moving the trust issue to me.

Primal Server includes membership, discovery and media caching services for Nostr - PrimalHQ/primal-server
The way to verify that Primal's caching server isn't lying to you: use a "different" client to check. Is not the implication, then, that what's "different" about the other client is that you **know** it doesn't lie and this is why it is a check on Primal? Therefore the "difference" between the truth-telling client and Primal is that Primal **can** lie, while the other cannot - which has been my point all along.
