damus' motto is "the social network you control". one core ethos is no *defaults* that would shadowban people.
First thing: I use Amethyst and can read you. Second thing: Blaming NOSTR for things Amethyst does is like blaming EMAIL for things that MS OUTLOOK does. Get that in your head.
It's not censorship when users can turn it off at will. It's just a default setting.
you probably have security filters off ? many users and the dev confirmed all of this many times ...all public ...so.. if the biggest app for androif is cnesoring users with such a flawd algorithm, thats a nostr problem becusse it affects many people losten here bucko, since i started on nostr 2 years ago probably by now, there has been talks of shared block lists, Web of Trust, app censorship, and more The failures I seen on competing social networks is happening here too
Well said.

so twitter refugees love to mass report users on nostr for any little reason. The block reasons are frivolous and include wrongthink if a user receives lots of reports in your friend circle, amethyst will block that user automatically on your behalf without your consent
Listen bro, since I blocked you some 2 years ago, I urgently wanted such block lists every time a "happy new year" spam or "reply-girl" bullshit hapoened. Some days ago I accidently went on 'global' and had to endure chikd porn -- I still can't get this image out of my had. So, there is demand for filters. I don't want to use paid-only relais, because it excludes a lot of folks. Still, I am happy that I unblocked You yesterday, it's a joy seeing you lamenting about how an app is configured on first start. Maybe just browse your setting and stop being a crybaby.
And NO - filters where on 'till now, I could read you, and NO, I don't follow you. Your answers just showed up - my social graph doesn't seem to block you.
I am one of the big advocates of reporting csam too. you nostr users are slacking hard in that fight i dont want anyone on nostr to be censored because a small group of people decided you were bad or committed wrongthink understand retard?
It depends on the follows, don't you get it? The blocking from others only matters when I follow them. Just then, and when the switch is ON, you are blocked because the follows blocked you a lot.

You can criticize Elon but you can't say he's a bad Diablo player.😂
The only I don't like is, when something like that is added in an update (and turned on by default) without me knowing it. Is it "good"? Is it "bad"? It's an attempt to filter spam. Everybody has to see how it works for them. I personally have turned it off, but propably will turn it on the moment, the next bot-spam-wave will hit NOSTR
I don't want some other person do the filtering, thx 😁 I don't trust centralized solutions

Every major social media app is just becoming an ad for Nostr at this point.
flare.pub You need to host the video though. If you don't know how or don't want to pay for it, you can use Rumble links.

Tell me about real centralization . What is that different than the Nostr we have now
kyc wallet forces you to use alby or their wallet forces you to use their relay over your own, ie their cache relay forces you to use their upload server for your media
In Nostr, you can criticize jack and anyone else In Nostr, people can freely talk about and support Palestine In Nostr, you can discuss anything, but you need to be sincere about your private key and posts The posts here cannot be deleted. This is not any traditional social platform. You cannot cover up your evil deeds by deleting or modifying posts. So your private key represents yourself. Indeletability is the foundation of Nostr's trust network. This is the freedom world created by cypherpunks
So easy to shift clients and relays, though, without starting over on your connections and content. It’ll ebb and flow. 🍿

You’ll know who your masters are by who you can’t criticize. And the puppet masters are playing both sides.
