What I see is: - core taking away option from node runner to decide how much data he wants to rely (taking freedom away). And saying things like “there are no spam tx” - dashir creating datum to try fix the mining centralization issue and the knots ppl toxically defending btc as money protocol It’s not about the spam issue, it’s about where the focus is and how. And I believe that now that knots is at 17% it’s difficult to ignore the fact that many disagree with what core has been done (or at least how it has been done). I don’t claim to know the answer, but what really saddens me is seeing “core ppl in their village calling knots stupid” and “knots ppl in their village calling core ppl stupid”. Where are the real discussion and confrontation? Clearly this is a topic that needs to be discussed more between the 2 parties. I remember seeing 2 videos on YouTube where knots representative and core representative discussed in person with each other (each one not even 1 hour long and ppl being cut off after 2 minutes). Is this the best discussion we can have? I believe having more serious discussion between the 2 parties is what most ppl truly want
