Decided to look into Nostr since everyone here seems to hate it (so I can figure out why).

From their website, they tout that it's "censorship-resistant"* while also complaining that traditional social media is overrun by bots and spam.

How does one go about solving the bot/spam problem without resorting to censorship? This feels rather mutually exclusive to me.

coincidently heard about nostr for the first time today and the context was "noted fascist network nostr" or words to that effect

I haven't bothered to check it out yet. I quite like Scuttlebutt, which Nostr is somewhat based on, but Nostr lacks the features that make Scuttlebutt actually nice to use.
