Hmm. It’s not a blockchain, just a decentralized protocol. And anyone can run a relay… don’t like the way the operators are running their relays? You can run one of your own. You’re entitled to have relays to write to, even if they’re just your own run relay. And whether you can get people to join and participate depends on if you have valuable content that people want to read 🤷🏻‍♀️ no centralized force can make that call, but supply/demand certainly could - collectively, most people have decided they don’t want spam and flock to relays that handle that. If there are people who want to read your content, there will be relays that will show it. This community is pretty interested in censorship prevention and most relay operators are doing what they can do maintain that. If they deviate from that ethos, people will likely take their content elsewhere. It’s fully within the rights of relay operators and users to wield those choices.
