Thanks for bringing privacy to the forefront. Few read the respective nostr github project documentation on privacy. Your method of exposing privacy on base nostr protocol has been effective.

> hardly any moderation tools

Despite this, the discourse is more civil than that of twtr. Maybe it’s a function of nostr’s tiny size, and lack of algos.

@rabble and nos social are as far as I’m aware thinking and developing most on moderation tools.

I don’t know how far they’ve gotten - that said one of the benefits of nostr is you don’t have a mandatory moderation curator in a WEF stooge. You can have a feature where you choose your own moderator - for instance you can choose Jack.

@Sirius implemented web of trust network hops filter more than half a year ago on Iris messenger.

> no centralized development
Yes, this is a feature. Otherwise we’ll get another closed big tech gulag.

You are more than welcome to submit PRs to Damus, and I’m sure many others will happily review patches. Nearly all of nostr is FOSS, and lead devs welcome patches.

This is a natural consequence of being censorship-resistant, but it will scare new users away. I'm excit...
