A social network is also about distribution. If you are banned from a few popular Relay nodes, you are effectively banned from the network. Your audience will not find your notes without putting some effort themselves.

I think you aren’t giving enough credit “out of network” warnings in your app. I do not think I would like to converse with people who are beyond friends of friends. The real life analogy is that it is the set of people you might find yourself with at a dinner party.
“Out of network” are sufficient.

What do you mean that the govt relay will act as s proxy? Please explain

2024-07-19 12:55:10

- reply

Each relay is allowed to censor / moderate by its own rules but the discovery of new relays is not dependent on your existing relay list. So a govt might block access to relays, new ones can pop up and users can publish to them to get around censorship.
I don’t think relays currently exchange posts with each other. A relay proxy (relay relay?) would make the nostr network more resilient

There are so many internet shutdowns in India because india allows local district authorities to decide if they want to shutdown it. Like a local curfew on physical movement. Afaik it does not need approval from even the provincial govt

I believe India does so too almost as a matter of policy. But then India shuts down the internet at the drop of a hat. It doesn’t even make the news now. This report from 2021 https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2021/09/29/india-exam-cheating-internet-shutdown/

The whole point of Ditto is that it exposes the Mastodon API. So, in theory, any Mastodon client will connect with ditto dot pub.

It appears that in the New York Times, the business folks have won. The papers wants to publish stories and opinion pieces for all political sides. The edit’s own position is not clear.

Yes, that is probably correct. Like Google cache or internet archive is going to keep your public post forever.

I remember one of the earliest delights on BlueSky was that it - the app - looked and behaved so much like OG Twitter. Quoting worked perfectly too. Remember that it was at a time when Mastodon folks are shooed away a lot of Twitter migrants saying that their old habits were not welcome on Mastodon.
The app was, and is, a delight to use. We don’t give enough credit for UX for driving growth.
