Didn’t expect this to turn into a cesspool almost indistinguishable from twitter so quickly. Less ego. More bitcoin.

“To take flight every day! At least for a moment, which may be brief, as long as it is intense. A "spiritual exercise" every day - either alone, or in the company of someone who also wishes to better himself. Spiritual exercises. Step out of duration... try to get rid of your own passions, vanities, and the itch for talk about your own name, which sometimes burns you like a chronic disease. Avoid backbiting. Get rid of pity and hatred. Love all free human beings. Become eternal by transcending yourself. This work on yourself is necessary; this ambition justified. Lots of people let themselves be wholly absorbed by militant politics and the preparation for social revolution. Rare, much more rare, are they who, in order to prepare for the revolution, are willing to make themselves worthy of it.”

Run 29, no one forces you to update. That’s the beauty of an open protocol.

Of course it’s an issue but mempool filters are not the fix for it. Once confirmed, your node will still download and store the tx. I argue that conversation is needed, just blindly following either camp is not the solution.

In a truly open protocol filters will never fully work. They benefit users by keeping the protocol relatively usable. But here’s the big but: this whole thing is only about mempool filters has nothing to do with what your node will accept as valid tx sooo it’s not that big of a deal
