- sph 4y agoI was explaining how Nostr works, not how to avoid getting banned from Mastodon. The point is that you have only one Mastodon API endpoint vs potentially infinite Nostr relays for each account you own.
- googlryas 4y agoHow about when whoever you provisioned your tld or up in your mastodon I'd decides you've been a bad boy and can't have them any more?
- rchaud 4y agoStart over? Nothing lasts forever. No one said the life of a free speech warrior would be an easy one.
- googlryas 4y agoThat philosophy could be used to justify any problem with anything. Just use Twitter then. The point is you don't have that issue with nostr
- acdha 4y agoYou have proof of continued identity with nostr thanks to the keys but you still have the challenges around linking keys to people which were a major struggle for GPG. The solutions for that tend to involve social media or DNS (checking a personal domain). This seems like a good area to improve since things like code signing could also benefit. One of the big problems I see is bootstrapping your network initially and also solving the lost phone problem without setting up a system which phishers and spammers would have a field day with.
- Cameri 4y agoMastodon does not solve the problem stated above. In Nostr you don't have to be jumping from instance to instance and losing all your stuff every time in the process. Mastodon is clearly inferior to Nostr when it comes to having a decentralized identity.
