If there is no public proof that you post something, there is ability to censor it.
If I make 1st 2nd 3rd post. And someone or server try to load my content, there is absolutely no proof if I made 0 or 1 or 2 or 3 posts. With Bitcoin transaction, you know utxo, time and so order also.
I can make and sign 100 posts, but as long as node or active router wish to censor there will be no oraculum to ask how many posts I did.
Seems like Nostr devs don't understand that posts signatures must be stored on chain to protect time-line and posts existence. Nodes should be able to censor data itself, but not knowledge that data exists.
Look how bastyon.com technically implements social network. With blockchain, there is ability to do transparent rating system, so would be easy to censor bots.
