I have seen some critical views on Nostr as a part of decentralized network discussions, but most seem to be focused on culture not function.

What are the functional / protocol differences that make you prefer ActivityPub over Nostr?

    I think you will find that most forums before Digg and Reddit did have rules. There is some revisionism from muh free speech types that seek to redefine them as free speech zones, when many were not.

    Moreover, many clients and apps that were had much smaller userbases.

    The point about the CP here is that you are saying that it would remain technically on the systems you are referring to.

      Usenet certainly didn’t, nor does the web in the grand scale. Enforcement was weak.

      Nope, it would have to be removed just like always. True of new systems, too.

        Many communities that lack rules then and now are spam-infested slopholes.

        Nope, it would have to be removed just like always.

        So would it be mass-removed entirely to the point where no-one could see it no matter what their user settings are?
