It’s a federated protocol that uses public key cryptography to prove identity, so you don’t really have a “home server”. That also means there’s very little in the way of moderation.

I think this is more down to the mindset of the community of people who use it, than it is the fault of the technical design, which does go beyond just relying on private keys for identity, and could absolutely work out systems for effective moderation. But the Nostr community is mainly Bitcoin maxi libertarians, so maybe they just won't.

Of Nostr? It's an activitypub alternative, not a cryptocurrency
the cryptobros bit threw me off

PDFs as in pirated books i.e. we might want to check out nostr even if only rarely for specific items of interest? Or like useless whitepapers i.e. nostr would have zero value to most of us (or I guess you are saying that heavy curation can restore some utility).
PDFs as in Jeffery Epstein.

Thanks!

I now vaguely regret some of my word choices then...!

I thought Nostr sounded interesting so I checked it out. Turns out it's just crypto bros stroking each other over there. No thanks.
Any "platform" that puts 100% of the responsibility to block spam and annoying users onto the individuals is simply miserable. They want a space where they can force their worldview onto everyone.

Spam, cryptobros and PDFs. But once you block them its halfway decent. I mean as an alternative its ok
It's like if Wikipedia put the expectation of fact checking onto the end user.
