I’ve heard a lot that normies don’t care about censorship resistance, which is true, but only because they haven’t experienced the problem yet.

How do we get people to care about a problem that they won’t experience until they do?

They need to disagree with the powers in charge. For example, a lot of left leaning friends and family are all of a sudden for limited government because of the Trump admin.

eh, good luck. Not only will they not care, they will vote for people to enforce it eventually because it will be against something they "believe" in.

There is no 'until they do' they are fluid, their opinions will change with whatever is the dominant culture. They'll never need it.

One doesn't need to experience it first, but understand the implications and consequences of the practice. For example, a society where censorship is the norm cannot innovate and cannot prosper...

We need to tell them. I came to Nostr because I had a need to know. Locked out & censored from LinkedIn. Suspended, censored & locked out from X. Found Nostr. Fell in love with Nostr. Nostr is my way of digital communication. 🧡🗽💜

They will never care like they wouldn't care for SSL if it wouldn't exist. Let's just build great products that everyone loves where censorship resistance itself is not the product and just a included feature instead. I really love the idea that we focus on tools that enable building great online co...

i don't think it's possible, most of them even want an authority to control and censorship. When i orange pilled someone they never cared about censorship resistance bc its not a problem for them. Like someone said already the best chance is built something that they want and like that is censorship...

This is a tough one. Until you experience censorship yourself. It is one of those things that you know exists, but it does not affect you. So why should I care? Kind of like convincing people to start carrying a gun with them wherever they go. They have not been mugged before so why should they nee...

I hear that people respond well to peer pressure, indirect threats, and shaming.

Problem is convenience. Solution is education For education, generally I start with a universal problem like inflation (and related opportunity cost). Which is inconvenient for everyone. Once someone understands it, that’s the best time to shill freedom tech and its products. Because that is whe...

If you have spent any amount of time on any legacy platform then a decision has been made as to which content you are shown and which content you are not shown. Curation is censorship. Everyone has been exposed to the problem.

you/we can't they don't want to know and will continue rather not knowing until they die because it is easier. this is not a new problem. same problem, same people, new bodies, new names, same sheep behaviour. ants, grasshoppers blind, eyes open asleep, awake

Most people can achieve the same form of censorship-resistance provided by Nostr simply by sharing their post to multiple social media platforms. All of the benefit with none of the downside. Yes, being deplatformed, banned, or otherwise censored sucks. But using a bunch of alpha software on a net...
