also its called Reduced Data Temporary Softfork. not Spam Stopping Softfork.

its job is to reduce data fields.

opreturn is the worse place.
and also core has taproot exploit.

and core is hardforked

selective pruning makes you a bad relay. full nodes are the only real nodes.

putting data on the chain rarely is not an issue having big parasite protocols for storing data and gamifying is the issue.

letting them grow on the chain is the issue, narrowing rules never requires a hard fork.

core devs gets millions of funding its their job to be a cat.

if you close enough holes you make their job harder and harder, you change the rules under them, so they never grow, they can't, protocol doesn't like them, it breaks them constantly. they have to find bunch of weird tricks to put the data, make it more and more expensive, more and more complex, so its not worth it anymore.

best place to put spam is another chain, second best place is deep inside bitcoin hidden, worse place is out in the open in opreturn.

you can't stop people from organizing

its 4MB rn.

also 1MB limit was added later.
lowering it is a softfork, don't add anything new.

i didn't like the way core worked, they make change, then say ACK NACK etc... feels like politics then a software project.

politics prevents fights, makes people vote, makes them feel like they have power. core is a software we should have had multiple software.

i think chain history is also important, on our side going against miners as node runners is expected, so after a URSF our chain would succeed because we have a history of miner chain being irrelevant/invalid at the end.

and knots is luke's software, nobody points a gun into your head to run it or a specific version of it. bitcoin purity exists that forked after bip110, there's also another fork of knots, that still works on older chain.

and that's the way i like it, a clear captain steering his ship/software someone who is directly responsible for your software.

if you have a better client and get a bigger user base then do it.

core also has centralized power of an organization and few big heads. all software, domain etc does.

at least luke listens to his users, and asks them questions.

its a softfork, it needs nobody's approval. that's the issue. if two big miners antpool and foundry decides its ok its done.
