Really, though, I don't think the problem is people using centralized platforms, or even proprietary software, but, rather, people *depending* on it.

I know, it's not really a good meme if it's about recent events.
It should be more like "ICE is a bunch of fucking criminals and our country should be deeply ashamed about them" or something of the sort.
Still, some people do oppose ICE's actions more when they also happen to be against legal citizens.

> Even if they were actually and genuinely only "really after illegals", these people would come up with another reason to be against it.
If you commit crimes, such as murders, only against actual illegals (many of whom, to my understanding, are not even criminals, as theirs is a civil violation), you still shouldn't be wearing a uniform.
So it would still make sense to oppose ICE for those who think their actions were illegal.

I can't read OP's minds, but the recent events people are discussing about have nothing to do with expelling anyone from the country, they are about expelling people out of the living world and to the afterlife.

- reply

Aren't people in the US arguing about the legality of actions by ICE?
Not everything anyone does to address a murder is legal.
Murder should be addressed by doing exactly what the text of the law says ought to be done (at the time of the act, or the prosecution, whichever is the most lenient).
If a policeman just shoots me because I am a murderer (not to *prevent* a crime, to punish the crime), now you have two murderers.

Courts are part of the government.
They enforce laws made by the legislator, they are made of people picked according to the law, they are the mouth of the law.
Many laws which infringed upon human rights have been enforced by courts, sometimes correctly so (in the lack of higher laws preventing such violations).
A law can be morally illegitimate but legally valid. It must be challenged politically.

2026-01-24 00:57:35 UTC

- reply

The two reasons are aligned.
People giving up power to corporations, and allowing them the role of filtering speech, isn't illegal and isn't strictly speaking a political problem, but it does erode democracy.
It doesn't mean, morally, that centralized platforms *ought* to be neutral and have permissive policies (although some choose to do so). You can make the argument none owes anyone the tool to exercise fundamental rights, so long as they aren't actively infringing them without their consent.
However, it'd be nice, and healthy for democracy, if people did have a tool to exercise their fundamental human right to freedom of speech, which is neutral and not subject to the will of the owners of corporations or capitalistic interests.
That's Nostr.
It doesn't remove governmental censorship, but it does a lot of good to freedom of speech and can be a tool for democracy.

2026-01-24 00:07:32 UTC

- reply

I do wish for Nostr to, maybe not solve, but at least address other issues, primarily corporate censorship.
Companies often censor content which is absolutely legal. It's also legal (and one could argue moral) to censor content, since they own the servers, but we have the right to reject their role and power as middlemen and Nostr can address that.
Government censorship and violation of basic civil rights (such as the non-retroactivity of laws) isn't a technical problem, it's a political problem which can't really be solved by just nerding hard enough.
> When the state acts against the will and the best interests of the people, do we have democracy?
In some cases yes, but not if it violates fundamental human rights.
Democracy isn't about having perfect laws, or maybe even good laws, it's about empowering the people (not just the majority of them, all of them).
Fundamental human rights such as democracy, the right not be prosecuted for what wasn't illegal at the time of the act and the right to influence political decisions are all that democracy is. There is nothing more and nothing less to democracy than that.

It would be bad if that specific note were deemed illegal, yes.
I don't think it's necessarily bad that it's hard to say you didn't write what you write.
Nostr isn't supposed to be a means to publish illegal content. It's not failing at doing that, it was just never supposed to do that.
The purpose of Nostr is to publish things so that it can be proven that you wrote those things, which is exactly what you may want if you wish to have a public outlet.

2026-01-23 23:51:38 UTC

- reply

You are usually only guilty for what is illegal at the time you do it.
If I do something, then it becomes a crime, I can't be charged for it.
Of course, even these basic principles of democracy can be broken, along with freedom of speech, but Nostr is not even supposed to be a solution to that problem, it never was.

MORE INFO:
1) What is open source software?
By "open source software", also referred to as "free software", "FOSS" or "FLOSS", EU institutions mean the exact same as the free and open source software community.
Note that EU institutions mean the exact same as the FLOSS community does.
If you are not confident, please read my blog post here: https://www.functorfault.net/posts/free-software/
2) What questions must I answer?
In your comment to the call for evidence, you must focus on the questions in the attached file (available in 24 languages).
They are:
1. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the EU open-source sector? What are the main barriers that hamper (i) adoption and maintenance of high-quality and secure open source; and (ii) sustainable contributions to open-source communities?
2. What is the added value of open source for the public and private sectors? Please provide concrete examples, including the factors (such as cost, risk, lock-in, security, innovation, among others) that are most important to assess the added value.
3. What concrete measures and actions may be taken at EU level to support the development and growth of the EU open-source sector and contribute to the EU’s technological sovereignty and cybersecurity agenda?
4. What technology areas should be prioritised and why?
5. In what sectors could an increased use of open source lead to increased competitiveness and cyber resilience?
Please, answer with *absolute honesty* and absolute accuracy. Just once.
If you are not a EU citizen, you can still answer, just correctly mark that you are not.

People often, *very mistakenly* assert that free software and open source are different things, sometimes linking to an article by Stallman I've read and I understand well (I even got him to fix an error, how many can claim they got Stallman to change his mind?), but they clearly do not at all.
The free software *movement* and the open source *movement* are different, but the two phrases refer to the same category of software, with possibly very sporadic exception that only lie on the very boundary of such category. Both movements agree about this, it's not controversial among the people that actually made these phrases popular.
Now, Stallman and his followers, who support the free software movement (and object, to some extent, to the open source movement), suggest that "FLOSS" is a better neutral term than "FOSS". They don't use this term themselves. They are not neutral, they think the phrase "free software" is better than "open source" (the two mean the same anyways, so they pick "free software").
They just think those who, unlike them, wish to be neutral between the two terms should say "FLOSS" instead of "FOSS".
There is some truth to the fact that the free software movement is more copyleft-oriented, but both the GPL (copyleft) and the MIT (non-copyleft) licenses are unquestionably free, open source, FLOSS and FOSS.
You're probably already familiar with what I said, but let me spam my article on the topic anyways: https://www.functorfault.net/posts/free-software/

I think if one is to use the Fediverse, one should favor a free speech platform, since their account would be tied to the whims of the admin.
An example is Minds, which actually used to support Nostr, but then moved to ActivityPub.
My take is it's actually smart to use more than one platform at once. Using Nostr doesn't preclude other options.

> If this is part of the difference between FOSS and this new term "FLOSS",
It's not.
There is absolutely no difference in meaning whatsoever, none at all.
The "F" in both is for "free" as in "free software". The "L" in the second is simply to *clarify* that the F means "libre", not "free of charge". It's the case either way, the L is just supposed to clarify it.
Non-copyleft permissive licenses and copyleft licenses all qualify as "FOSS", "FLOSS", "free software" and "open source" licenses.
The MIT license is a FOSS license and a FLOSS license. The GPL is a FOSS license and a FLOSS license.
This isn't, of course, to say copyleft and permissive licenses are the same. They are not, that's why we have the word "copyleft" to describe the difference.
If you prefer non-copyleft licenses for your software, that's totally fine, of course. I'm not trying to argue for or against copyleft. But there was never a difference between "FOSS" and "FLOSS" in meaning.

On Twitter I follow this guideline, generally.
If I only followed people I agree with, then I would create an eco chamber for myself.
One may suggest to do the opposite: to only follow those I most disagree with. People I most disagree with, however, are often either flat Earthers or Nazis. I can be exposed to those ideas, but, pragmatically, there isn't much time I can reasonably dedicate to those ideas and I don't want my whole timeline to be brainrot.
I follow people based on positive interactions and, as is human, for better or worse, I consider agreement as positive and disagreement as negative in making that determination. However, I do not unfollow based on disagreement.
If I agree with someone on something, it surely doesn't mean I agree with them on everything else. So this allows you to have a widely diverse feed, politically and ideologically, without your whole timeline turning into brainrot.

2026-01-08 04:21:35 UTC

- reply

My take, when it comes to the line between good bots and spambots, is that bots should not interact with users unprompted.
A bot which mentions users, misuses hashtags or is not properly marked as such via NIP-24 should be considered a spambot. A bot which is marked as such and only replies to users if prompted to do so, in order to offer some kind of service, should be regarded as a good bot.
As for pornography, my take is that it should be allowed except when it's illegal or spam. It's just like any other kind of content one may disagree with. Requiring that it be marked as sensitive via NIP-36
can make sense.

> Get the last word in, tell them they are going to be muted and then mute them
This is by far one of the lamest things you can do on social media (Nostr included).
It's the Internet equivalent of plugging your ears while screaming things so you can't hear the response. If you are interested enough in the conversation to "get the last word in" and the reason they are the "last words" is that your ears are plugged, you have lost that debate in the least respectable and most childish way possible.
Being muted by randos on Twitter on Nostr isn't a loss in any sense. The only value in telling someone they are getting muted is for their own sake (so they know why they won't receive further responses in that thread).

Personally I do care, in the sense that, everything else being equal, I'd use software written by hand rather than written by AI. This is especially true for open source software.
Software programs are works of literature. If a program has been written by humans, it's pretty clear what the "source code" is and what should be shared. We know it's intelligible to humans because a human wrote it.
But what if a program has been generated by an illiterate vibe coder? In that case it may go to production without anyone ever understanding the program in full. The prompt isn't source code either, since models behave randomly and may generate different programs with the same input.
To this, you should add that many "vibe coders" depend on specific models offered by specific companies through an API. This effectively adds a dependency on those companies for the development of the program.
It matters to have people that understand programs and, for that, it makes sense to prefer programs that have been written and continue to be written by hand.
The use of prompts in natural language is not akin to using high level languages. Natural language is inherently imprecise, while all programming languages, no matter how high level, communicate ideas precisely and are formal languages.

They are the ones pushing AI shit none asked for, they don't care about users and they won't do this.
Would many ask for it? Of course. Many asked them to reintroduce dislikes, one of the best features of YouTube, but YouTube didn't do so.
There is a lot of really high-quality content on YouTube. It's up to us to find and share high-quality content and stop watching shit.
For example, there is a lot of truly good educational content, both well-known (the usual: 3Blue1Brown, PBS Space Time and a lot more), but also many lesser known ones that are very good (channels explaining how some things in video games work, made by game developers, for example).
There are however a lot of """educational""" channels that are just straight-up slop and misinformation. There have been for longer than this idiotic surge of AI slop. The usual flashy "top 10 things you didn't know" that are just 10 things you couldn't have known because they are false. Or just random "facts" written to make idiots feel smart.
For entertainment, it's kind of the same thing: there are genuinely good and funny channels and brain-rot channels that somehow manage to catch our attention for hours without being genuinely funny or even pleasant, like a hack of the brain.
We truly need to promote high quality and call out brainrot, in all forms, especially videos.
As for a genuine AI filter, you can't actually build one and the existing ones are scam (which I hear even some teachers and professors are relying on, I think they should be fired).

INAL, but note that patents don't need to be reversed (they have to be public) and that reverse engineering doesn't need to infringe copyright.
So do reverse engineer them: what you'll find is not patented (if it were it couldn't be secret) and if it's limited to ideas, not implementations, is not subject to copyrights.
Reverse engineering isn't illegal in on itself. In fact, some (mild) legal exceptions even exist to support it (they may not be as strong as they should be).

Hey, @npub1q3s…d26p, what is the "ping" message for on the Ditto relay?
I know the client is supposed to reply "pong", but I don't get the utility of it.

> This is why I cleanly define atheism as an absolute negative claim on the existence of God.
So you redefine your opponent's position? Is this how you win?
I define your position as asserting there absolutely cannot be a teapot orbiting Earth. Can you prove your position, which I just defined?

Actually people deserve to watch what they want without authoritarians having a say in it.
That's why Nostr exists, too.

@npub1wp2…hpv0 and @npub17ky…g0pz, what do you think about this?

I asked them and, while they are not sure about the specific, the licenses will be free and open source for both hardware and software.

Why does it matter if a project is cooperative?

Cryptography was absolute fucking garbage until recent decades, precisely because of this.

Then we would no longer have encryption and therefore Nostr.

I hope it doesn't happen to Blender.
Ton will leave leadership in 2026. So far the foundation has been managed incredibly well, it's an incredibly good project aligned with the interest of users.

I already thought coding is awesome, you don't need to sell it to me.

I actually wouldn't sacrifice a field almost as old as modern computer science itself just to have less slop on social media.

The non-AI based denoisers (which Blender used before the current one from Intel) absolutely suck in comparison.
The current denoiser saves a lot of time and energy while preserving quality.

By "AI" do we mean what the industry currently means or all all AI (that would include the denoiser in Blender, since it's based on neural networks).

I think maybe it's not coding that sucks, it's work that sucks.
Money can ruin almost anything that it touches.

So 3 of the worst organizations in existence.

> I think coding does suck tho. Like 99% of what people are getting paid to do is total bullshit
A lot of code isn't written to get paid.
Many other activities are almost exclusively done because they are useful (monetarily or otherwise), but many write code for fun.

Actually in this case the author is known and can be bullied out of Nostr.

Actually, can we make Nostr a horrible place for spammers like @npub16ye…g4wn, please?

Bots, including this one by @npub16ye…g4wn, should be opt-in, not opt-out.
They should be clearly marked and they should only reply if you tag them or post without mentioning anyone.
Viktor is a spambot, plain and simple. Some spambots are easier to detect programmatically.
Some, like this one, need to be blocked individually.
Both clients and relays should block spambots. They should also harm the reputation of their authors.
For Nostr to thrive, it must push against spambots and make their authors feel unwelcome.
