Anyone being able to run a node is the starting requirement of a decentralized network.

That doesn’t make it decentralized in a meaningfully scalable way.

There are missing notes everywhere due to…
-relays not syncing (though global sync leads to giant centralized relays)
- not being able to discover other peoples relays (to pull notes from them outbox style)

This is the C and the A of CAP theorem, which is far older than bitcoin itself!

Primal is walking in the other direction instead of trying to solve these problems.

It’s an absolute waste of time and frankly infuriating that people (jack especially) parade what they’re doing. Achieving features like search at the cost of decentralization is no better than shitcoiner behavior. The shitcoiners gain features by compromising on whats actually important: CAP.
