Nostr's idea of "moderation/censorship" is quite simple: you (or your relay admin)
can drop whatever content you don't want to see or promote. It's no different than email servers, and (as a system) it works just fine even if you are surrounded by bad actors.
- kmeisthax 3y agoWait, this is just ActivityPub with extra steps. Why not just use Mastodon?
- sharperguy 3y agoThe main difference with Mastadon is tha with Mastadon you have a single node that you get your federated feed from, and that verifies your identity. Therefore if your node operator doesn't peer with some other node, you wouldn't automatically be able to communicate with users on that node. With nostr, your identity is just a pubkey, and you can publish to / read from several nodes simultaneously. So if some node refuses to puplish certain content, you can just get it from another node without having to create a whole new identity.
