Censorship-resistance is the ability to say what you want to say or transact with whomever you want to transact with and not have anyone able to prevent you from doing so.

With #Bitcoin, censorship-resistance is accomplished with an alignment of incentives: miners are rewarded for allowing transaction freedom; proof of work makes it incredibly difficult to be exclusive of anyone using the protocol.

With #Nostr, a relay operator can decide not to store or transmit your messages; there's no mechanism to prevent that from happening but you don't care because another relay will probably store and transmit your messages for you and nothing stops you from hosting your own relay as well.
