     @verita84 @spitfire Yeah, Nostr had a very brief window of opportunity to become a big thing, but visitors realized that the clients were all trash (focused on zaps instead of actually functioning well), and the community was boring.
     
     So at this point it's going to fade into obscurity for a while. It remains to be seen whether it will make a comeback later on or if it will just be another statistic.

     @verita84 @spitfire I can't really tell. I think Damus is doing some shadowbanning thing that's controversial, but retards will keep using it because they don't have any principles and just want to get rich from bitcoin.
     
     Sounds like some of the devs are starting to look at the user retention rate and realizing that they're not hitting the mark if they want Nostr to last long-term. Not sure if that will actually lead to a cultural shift toward free speech, though. The whole community is a bunch of spineless soybots.

     @verita84 @spitfire If only more instances would have a nice, personal touch to their block reasons. All I ever get is "transphobic" or "copied from some other list lol idk"

     @verita84 @spitfire I looked through the Blue Sky code and docs, and from what I can tell, it's closer to Mastodon than Nostr.
     
     The big thing about Blue Sky is their "indexing" for content discovery. People can post whatever they like (free speech), but it may not get indexed by the big names. Theoretically anyone could run a custom indexer for others to use, but the resources to effectively crawl however many instances is likely impractical for an individual to sustain.
     
     So "The Algorithm" will still control what most people see, because they're too retarded to understand indexing and discovery, but there will still be the autists with their own obscure little indexing.
     
     ...But if that's how it's going to be, then there's really not much incentive to move off fedi.
     
     My two cents, anyway.
