Yeah... I know both sides exist because I was there too. And like you said, nobody has to tear each other down over it. This whole thing has been ongo...

I hear you. I’ve seen it. I know it all exists. When someone gets toxic you don't need permission to escape. You just go. You take your keys and you find people who treat you like a human.

John wants control over his direction. Fair. But he doesn't get to claim moral superiority while demanding people abandon a protocol that lets anyone build without asking. That's the whole point. Nostr isn't holy, it’s open. And open means the door swings both ways.

The moment Nostr becomes what he's accusing it of is the moment people fork it and leave. That's the beauty. The exit option keeps everyone honest. Centralization can't stick here because the code doesn't allow it. People will find other clients that keep freedom free. That's how decentralization works.

So yeah. Call out the assholes. Call out the elitism. Call out the influencers playing king. But don't confuse the people with the protocol. The protocol doesn't care who feels blessed. It just works.

And people like you who've been kicked around and still choose freedom. You're exactly who this was built for.
