This episode as a whole is a great illustration of the danger of allowing a private business to run one of the biggest spaces for community and discourse in the world.

ActivityPub connects all of us. I’m also sure interopability will strengthen as these services grow.

activitypub instances can decide to block other instances like gab.com.

user accounts are bound to instances = vendor lockin.

etc...

a more decentralized protcol is nostr, see also https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/136090

my issue with nostr is it seems to be another private “network”

no need for speculations ("seems"). just read the intro https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nostr and visit some public frontends like https://iris.to/ or https://snort.social/ or https://nostr.ch/ or https://nostribe.com/ ... or other clients https://github.com/aljazceru/awesome-nostr#clients

while activity pub has issues it at least lets me talk on mastodon/lemmy/kbin and see posts from all those services.

posts on activitypub are not even signed... the only advantage of activitypub is more users, more content. but quantity is a poor indicator for quality.

its possible to create aggregating clients to "bridge all the networks", or to use bridges https://github.com/aljazceru/awesome-nostr#bridges-and-gateways

cheap excuse. there is nothing to "deconstruct" here. you can implement exactly the same anti-spam measures in a nostr relay.

i guess your problem is: you dont like competition. when i can host all the content from "your" relay, but with better moderation, then users will prefer my relay.

i see this stupid mindset all over the "warez scene". "my release", "my content", "my profit"... for fucks sake, you people just as stupid as the people who write copyright laws... the only question is: stupid or evil? scriptkiddie or CIA?

now you can ban me to prove my point : D

edit: also, you seem to have a problem with free speech. looking at your modlog, where you ban people for "Misogyny" or "transphobia" or "condescending". literally, this is worse than reddit.

please explain. me (and the nostr project) would love to hear your criticism.

also, relays are free to implement further anti-spam measures: captcha, email, phone, payment, ...
