This is the difficult part of bitcoin as a non dev. After years and years of using bitcoin, reading about bitcoin, listening to podcasts, discussing it on Twitter and now Nostr. I feel very knowledgeable about bitcoin yet I also feel like a newb. From what I can gather the last few days the PR does not seem to be a negative development, if this data is prunable and does not bloat utxoset and prevents more harmful data storage. Maybe I’m missing something but I don’t see any strong reason to switch to knots other than some drama over things not directly related to the PR itself and more personalities clashing.
This is why it is so important to understand how bitcoin technically functions before making emotional arguments about "cat JPEGs on the blockchain."

The whole entire reason why OP_RETURN exists in the first place is to avoid far worse and more damaging data storage schemes to the bitcoin blockchain.
