hello internet tough guy

Choosing an instance is basically equivalent to choosing a moderator.
To remove even more friction, we could have "moderation feeds" that users can subscribe to.

I don't think William is actually saying what you think he's saying.
IRL is objectively more dangerous since people can physically harm you, whereas online they can only hurt your feelings, yes. But online it is harder to get away from assholes since there are no police. He was talking about frequency and ease of exit, not level of danger (William, please correct me if I'm wrong).

I think the protocol should be trustless. #Nostr does this. And @silverpill is building it on #ActivityPub

This should help with not having to pick a instance/moderator and stick with them or else you'll lose all your contacts if they don't like you.

standards and norms always have violators

>doesn't nostr lack moderation generally?
seems so IME, but it doesn't have to. that's due to the values of the designers, not any technical limitation that says you can't have independence from admins without getting rid of even optional moderation

can the product be made better after it's popular? or will we be stuck with the poor choices of the past?

at least it will be better than what came before. and anyway, silverpill is adding extensions to ap, not creating an entirely new protocol
