I think it’s more about trust and dependency on a middleman than fear of censorship. It’s abstract at scuttlebutt’s scale but the idea is that we can only avoid a capitalist enterprise enclosing and extracting value out of our open network if the system is not dependent on them. And I’m not convinced that’s wrong. But maybe it is too big of a step forward. Nostr is much more practical.
