Encourage mining outside the US. I think as soon as there's enough hashing going on in say Russia or China in addition to the US the ability for anyone to censor basically goes to zero.

Seems we need new language to talk about supposedly open AI models. "Open source" doesn't even really make sense here. When people use that term they actually mean the output of the source code being open, not the inputs or even the code itself.

@nprofile…pyug I don't have any great ideas on how to make it better, but one of the more challenging parts of the #amethyst UX is reacting to a note that quotes another.
The reply and zap buttons for the original and quoting note are easy to mix up and sometimes I end up tapping the wrong one.
Only idea I have is maybe to hide those buttons for the note being quoted so you have to actually tap the note itself to see them.

I could see it being a design decision since that probably simplifies a lot of client code and they're building several clients.

I don't think this is bad advice.
Keep in mind we are coming from a perspective of people who literally thinks about BTC security all day every day.
