My 2c
You're right it would be hard. There is no one company to go after, no one CEO in charge, and even if they attacked all companies and all CEOs of all clients and all relays, they still have no ability to prevent users from easily starting their own relays or clients and publishing to the network.
Hypothetically they could make it illegal for users to use it, just as they have made it illegal to access Twitter via a VPN. But it would be I think much harder for them to enforce as it would be hard for them to identify that you are a user – as you could be using any client and any relay, hosted anywhere.

First click the small feed icon in the bottom nav bar. Second select "note discovery" at the top. Third if you don't see any https://image.nostr.build/952bbe715d3dd10048fe3fd8c388fc763056351d82900cb91522b1e1a41b71f4.jpg dvms, click "global" at the top. Hope this helps!

2024-08-18 06:34:47

- reply

True. When I first clicked this section I had yet to follow any, and so the screen showed only "feed empty". The first trick is to change to "global" feed to see all the dvms. The second trick is if you long press on one you like then you get a little partial menu with "follow" as an option, which adds it to you followed feed.

UI suggestion for Amethyst.
I always keep tabs to "All Follows" and so this always showed "Feed Empty". I didn't really know what it was, so never investigated further.
Today on a whim I changed "All Follows" to "Global" and was blown away.
I suggest that "Feed Empty" could have a mini prompt "See Global Feed".

2024-08-17 10:40:15

I just discovered note discovery in Amethyst! Incredible.
I had been flipping across to primal to use their feed options since forever. This market approach is excellent. Anyone can launch one, and I can follow the ones I like best.

The algorithm is trying to make me fearful and panic. I wonder why?
We know they engineer boom and bust cycles to force people to sell their real assets at cheap prices.
But I guess that only works if we're not wise to it.
Because what if we don't sell? Or what if we're holding outside money that actually appreciates during the bust?
That would make us hard to take advantage of. They would have to shake us out some other way.
Fearful. Panic. I wonder why?

There's a point in the Mandibles near the start where the son is hearing the news readers report on the US default, and he notes that the newsreaders are excited. Not because the news is exciting, but because it's their job to read the news and it's exciting to have something important to read even if that important thing is terrible.

Or do you join the system despite its injustice and in so doing enrich yourself and be celebrated by your friends even as you knowingly and willfully exploit them.

Well, have you ever got frustrated of having multiple accounts for social media? Your followers on one platform don't follow you everywhere and you need to create a new account and content and following for every platform? Well Nostr is social media except you get one account that you can use on YouTube, reddit, Twitter, Instagram, etc, and all your content, likes and followers come with you everywhere. In fact you can take your profile wherever you like, be anon if you want, and no one can ever deplatform you or censor or ban you or stop you using it in any way at all. You never risk losing your account, and all your content and followers get to stay with you for ever no matter what.

The thing that blows my mind is the speed of build based on the methods and components. When you show just how quickly key functionality comes together, it's jaw dropping.

One way to solve this may be with primary research. Having read the talk, editors are objecting to "censorship resistance" being stated in a way that it appears to be a claim that is unsubstantiated. The alternative would be to state it as e.g. "Nostr users choose Nostr because of its censorship resistance". To quickly create a survey of users for this purpose may help and is easy, give me a minute...

The thing that gets me about all media coverage on rate cuts is the framing. No one is framing rates as normal presently. Only as higher than normal. The implied assumption is that rates will be cut back to zero and that their rise was explicitly temporary.
