I’ve been fairly content in the “casually no-delete” camp. Partly because yeah delete’s not real, and partly because I love the authenticity that the absence of edit/delete has conferred on the nostr experience so far.
I do recognize why, at scale, it could be problematic. And from the first-principles approach of “user choice above all” that I tend to prefer, then having an option makes sense. But so does having the option to “see anything that has been broadcast to my relays thus far” (on principle, even if cumbersome).
Anyway,
Laeserin (npub1m4n…c2jl)'s is the best argument I’ve seen yet: an archive feature that most clients respect would be more than sufficient for most circumstances, without misleading a user to think that their content is actually scrubbed from the nostrwebs.
The goal of NIP-09 is to suppress the casual display of your notes in clients, not scrub every storage device on the planet. The Internet is forever.
NIP-09 will probably keep your stupid boss or your nosy ex-boyfriend from snooping on you... unless he's the sort of guy who works here.
