       @silverpill I'm definitely not on the Nostr hype train either. Baking crypto so deeply into your protocol and its culture does not end well IMO. I am curious what you mean with your fundamental flaw #1. Doesn't any good UX design hide protocol details from the user? Like, grandma doesn't need to know how TCP/IP works.

       @Jdreben It doesn't.

       @Jdreben I'm not touching it.

       @luca @atomicpoet @fediversenews 1) A significantly less moderated federated timeline is not the only drawback to removing defederation. What's a far bigger deal is that defederation also affects who can respond to your posts. And if an admin is allowing (or encouraging) their people to harass others, it is reasonable to cut off that admin's server.2) We should not rely on minorities having to block harm on their own. Requiring them to block all harm by themselves means relying on them being constantly exposed to harm. As a community we should be trying to reduce that as much as possible.3) There are enough "extreme cases" that if defederation was not in place I would pack up my bags and leave ActivityPub forever.Is defederation a great solution? Not always. Are there problems with overuse? Yes. Would the Fediverse be worse without it? 100%

       @luca @atomicpoet @fediversenews Okay, so do I understand correctly that your issue is not defederation but rather defederation of large instances?

       @rysiek Do you have an opinion on what a more healthy max user count would be? Besides "less."

       Whether it's #BlueSky or #Meta, I just do not understand how anyone can possibly give them the benefit of the doubt when it comes to their intentions with federated networking. Like, it's not like the internet is new. We have countless examples of what billionaires do with their power. They never try to make things better for us. They always try to accumulate profit for them at the expense of anyone else. How many times do people need to be fucked over before they learn?
