Lol I know what nip29 is. It's anti-nostr

in my house i am the authority, and i'll kick your ass out if you misbehave. centralization and censorship make sense here. in the public square it's the opposite. can't you see the difference?

NIP-29 is lowkey the most hated NIP because it reverses the "smart client, dumb relay" assumption and is centralized by design. NIP-29 is private property, not a public square. The relay as the authority (who can read, who can poast, etc.) is a feature for this use case, not a bug. Incentivises running your own relay. Makes writing clients simpler. Your house, your rules.

The NIP-72 approach is naive, clunky, bandwidth and computation intensive, mostly poorly implemented and a dead end for what NIP-29 tries to accomplish.

NIP-29 is pragmatic, not purist. Keep hatin' but imma keep building on it.

nostr will work on the assumption that users will run their own relay and blossom. the fundamental nostr value proposition is to self host your digital social life. So yes I'm all in favour of nip29, and nip04 for the same assumption (it works if it runs on your own inbox) and blossom and many other...

makes sense but why does he hate it, didn’t he author or co-author NIP-29?

Well said. I would add that NIP-29 is unique among any other moderated group scheme in any protocol or platform by its ability to do centralized management combined with server migration (although the migration part was never implemented by anyone yet). It's the best of both worlds. If you read htt...

Right. You go to the Bitcoin Conference to build relationships and network with like minded folks. It's a hub.

Perfect. You've highlighted the people to not network with. Find the plebs. Network with the plebs. The real conference happens in the hallways and in the expo area.

He married her? Hope he's paying child support to the one he dumped.

influencers are selling you a product. a persona. it's fake. whatever pays the bills. expecting otherwise is naive imo. most trad wife/husband online are capping, just acting an idealized archetype for their audience. they sell the ideal but reality is messy.
