How was that "wrong, harmful, or dishonest" - specifically?

It could, but it hasn't been a problem in practice. If it becomes one we can certainly address it.

Thank you for putting me in such great company!

How is it tangential? Technical success is the primary driver of community growth, adoption, and long-term viability. The more it can do, and the better it does it, the more people will use it.

Correct, I don't respond to demands that I disavow my own words, even if they weren't the words I'd use today.

How is offering the user more choice with respect to anonymity changing the goals of the project?

Endeavors that make decisions based on what will please the loudest people in the near term normally run into the ground pretty quickly. There was never any obligation to obtain the approval of "the community", whatever that is. N

What would your success metric be for whether reusing the name was the right decision?

The medium tends to amplify drama far beyond the reality of it, hope you are well :)

You need to remember the context. I was in the midst of obviously baseless allegations being made against me, not because of anything I actually said but because some very nasty[1] people disagreed with a naming decision I had made. If you

Your need to sort people based on trigger phrases says it all.

If the use of a single phrase in an obscure three year old mailing list post is enough to make you dismiss someone entirely, that probably says more about you than it does about me.

I wouldn't describe it as "less anonymity", it's more that the new Freenet gives applications and users different choices about anonymity depending on their requirements. I don't see how more choice is a bad thing -

You'd be surprised how mainstream these views are outside certain bubbles.

Messages in river are sorted by timestamp using a (non-cryptographic) hash of the message signature as tie-breaker, essentially a content hash. One weakness is that we trust the message author to provide an accurate message timestamp, howev

Yes, I stand by what I wrote. I'm not going to pretend otherwise because someone dug up an old mailing list post. If you think a specific statement was wrong, harmful, or dishonest, then explain why. I'll wait.

Sure, then just avoid me and I'll avoid you and we'll both be happier.

I prefer to say what I believe to be true rather than live in fear of how people looking to take offense might misconstrue something. A culture where people are expected to constantly self-censor to avoid bad-faith interpretations is unheal

Yes, iOS is the main headache. The other issue is that people probably won't want it using their mobile network bandwidth in the background, but that's solvable.

Thank you, that's actually an idea I considered a while ago - embed some wasm in a GET request (which retrieves complete contract state from the network) that could pre-process the state before returning it to the requestor. The issue
