How to think about censorship on a decentralized social network The protocol should aim to be like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Self-hosted clients are free to have zero censorship. Hosted clients will have some level of censorship—likely too aggressive of a word in most cases, can use algorithm and/or moderation. Probably less than the average web2 purely centralized platform. Max censorship is going to be on someone else's website, e.g. a blog comment where they are free to delete it completely.

Agreed. That’s one of the core principles of a “protocol” in my opinion.

The key is the protocol. How much like Bitcoin or Ethereum is it? There are good reasons snapchain is less resistant than these L1s, but we should not feel comfortable with it, and and stay there. There are a number of already planed improvements in the direction of UX or DX improvement. There should also be a direction that strengthens the censorship resistance of the protocol. There should be a list of acknowledged attack vectors, and we should be trying to cross them out.

Honestly the Bitcoin model is perfect. Let the base layer be completely neutral and let people build whatever UX they want on top, filtered or not

It Keeps getting to this, that Dex social will somehow rationalize censorships at certain stage of its growth. Forgetting the bane that led to Dex in the first place. But frankly speaking, is Dex real from the true Dev point of view knowing how this things works. If we are, driving towards true Dex, then let's follow through. I always believe if the centralized world didn't follow through there won't be need for decentralization. Hence, the major needles for decentralization mantra to see it thoroughly through so as to birth another better future if the need is seen to be inevitable.
