You can't just tell me n a few sentences?

In our user research, we found that most people joining Nostr get turned off and leave when they have somebody harass them or when they see harassment. So a way to protect free speech and also address these issues are to provide a way of users to choose labels and filters to shape their experience. It empowers relay operators to choose what they want to host, and users to decide what they want to see in their clients.

Nobody's telling you that you can't say whatever the hell you want on Nostr, but it is giving people tools to shape their social experience.

We see lots of women join Nostr, love what it offers, and then be harassed until they leave. This has happened many times. While you may want a platform which feels like 4chan, lots of others don't. You should be able to have your flamewar fun time while others don't have deal with that.

Nostr is held back because of the reputation of the content on the platform, not the quality of the apps and features of what we're doing. I'm saying, we should be able to use the protocol with communities of many norms.

Look at how many people are accusing Nostr with being a pro-nazi platform...

The answer is to put tools in users hands via nostr client extensions. It is not to centralize and claim authority. Your base instinct is central solution. Do you not grok?

Free speech does not always make you feel good. This is a product of living in a bubble for so long people can't handle crass thought or idea. This is a public square not kindergarten.

It's ok to censor cuz daddy technology giant says so. "Let's protect free speech by reporting bad people" NOSTR is the wild west. Don't be a damn victim. Get out of the fire if you can't stand the heat. It's tough love, and it will grow OVER TIME. Long term preference. Rabble, you did this to y...

the other note is about your bot. this is about you. this one is personal. "flame war fun" is the bit that outed you as a bit of a classist. We are not talking about flame wars and your use of that term is derogatory in this context. uncalled for. Next. "While you may want a platform which feels ...

I find it interesting that so many people reacted so strongly to the idea that users should have more tools to curate their personal experience on Nostr. I feel like some people confuse having the right to free speech with the idea that I should have to listen to or read it. I do highly recommend pe...

The mute and report button already exist, people are perfectly capable of using these tools at their own discretion. Nostr could be the most middle-of-the-road platform in terms of content and you would STILL be able to find all sort of outrageous claims about it on Google and any corporate-run pla...

Your link is a Google search that returns one result containing the three words in your query. And the result is a year old article talking about how well Nostr handles this problem.

Pfff so what, don't need those people. They are like the ones who flee blue states for red and then try and change them into the thing that made the problems they left. Better off without.
