Hey eliza! I love the Carl pictures... but, I think there is a crucial point to be made here... as nostr scales, new users will rapidly onboard at a rate that cannot be kept up with as far as "guided onboarding" goes. BUT! That's how we decentralize. It's going to look freaking beautiful in real time.

For now, I've done some recent research and thought... technical decentralization actually has some parameters that MUST be met to create a strengthened network.

interoperability is more complicated than most people understand (even me... im just a girl)... that's why meme coins don't quite TALK TO EACHOTHER yet (on other networks). think of all of us (individuals) as NODES trying to trade with each other (passing notes in class but farrrrrr apart in location)... but there isn't a fully realized DEX yet to make it happen with speed. Speed is complicated at a layered level and scale requires speed. Our current methods make things slow or... just plain broken. like we kind of accidentally burned this bridge we didn't mean to. protoype:final product

with that being said, there's also some legal ramifications (for us users) to consider as things scale... no one here wants to see anyone commit illegal crimes. and we certainly don't want to see anyone hurt on a network we're trying to protect. but on a decentralized protocol... the user is responsible for themselves. So, people who have been at this game for a hot minute, warn others about landmines.

The way that the state works is like this... people exist. state creates laws against nature. people exist naturally. and then the state tells you... jail.

that's not acceptable for anyone gatekeeping this network. Some of us are here to protect the user experience as a community...

Idk if you're familiar with Aaron Swartz... he's a legend for some of us. I find that the idea of open source is... "we all share the problem" and "we all check and balance against each other because sometimes we find we are the problem".

Please keep posting Carl. He's the best. and animals will always be the natural order of things.
