If they can kill nostr doing this, then it was not censorship resistant on the first place.
I think as usual, people are the weaklinks. We have to call these out of course. But the real winning would be if all users would call them out. Then it wouldnt even worth to develop such clients.
But if normal users dont call them out, only devs. It could seem from a user perspective, that one client dev is attacking another. And it feels fishy. Is he trying to get more users?
Also if they dont call these out, they will be fine using such clients, and will be controlled similarly by an algo as anywhere else.
