Federated matrix has become one of the most censored protocolls ever, despite being “decentralized and censorship resistant”. Here is a discussion on the topic on our RS channel:


Matrix homeserver is blocking monero.social

Matrix is used heavily by devs and they reacted a bit nervous… https://github.com/monero-project/monero-site/pull/2309

Although decentralized in theory, most of the landing and searching is done on the matrix.org homeserver. https://iv.datura.network/watch?v=W8KEuAEYjQ4 #Matrix - A Pit of Abuse with Government Ties If matrix is centralized enough by state agencies to enable graph anal — why use it at all? They seem to use it for intelligence gathering.

we replace matrix with RS, then github once RS adds the function, a fully decentralized github, now that would be amazing :grin:

Now that would be awesome.

Sidenote: while in theory it is censorship resistant, in practice matrix.org is the only admin of the (automatically pulled) blocklist on github. The blocklist makes up +50% (!) of all content on matrix or +100,000 entries — according to the vid source. Of course servers who dont pull the blocklist are facing hudge pressure because it can be inferred they are “hosting” pedo porn. How Monero got onto this list, i just dont know… See u on Nostr ?

nostr is good, matrix is a good protocol in theory like you said, but the centralization to matrix.org renders it worthless.

btw 90% of all pedo porn is done by the feds in order to poison the well

i’d say 99% -> https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Pedophocracy The global elites are obssessed with violating and corrupting purity and innocent child. Their punishment in the afterlife will be like nothing that is even comphrehendable


censorship? there is an app for that. But it’s not matrix.

    Retroshare solves this issue by using voting and reputatiom systems, which naturally corner off people and content away from your eyes that you dont desire. instead of this huge hulking moderation oligarchy which is prone to petty censorship of legitimately differing ideas and speech. absolute power corrupts absolutely. retroshare gives you control of your own interactions and space.

      I don’t know what that is but the screenshot is literally Windows XP so, ya lost me. And I really can’t be bothered to learn any new systems.

      by using voting and reputatiom systems

      I mean, that sounds much much worse. You’re talking about some Black Mirror shit.

      which naturally corner off people and content away from your eyes that you dont desire

      Blocking people is easy enough on Fedi…?

      retroshare gives you control of your own interactions and space.

      You can create and run your own instance and control whatever federation you want that way if your only concern is about your personal viewing habits…most people are concerned about the spread of hate speech.
