imagine that the blocksize war was won by big blockers few years later blocks are 10,20,30 mb, they’re full of spam, and running a node requires a 5tb hardrive and somebody comes along proposing to impose a 4mb block size limit in consensus would you have called it censorship? An attack on Bitcoin? a betrayal of neutrality?

the bip110 debate has exposed a basic confusion about censorship censorship is preventing someone who follows the network’s rules from using the protocol changing the rules of the protocol (bip110) is not censorship was segwit censorship? taproot? the 2010 inflation bug fix? rule changes are explicit, universal, and uniformly enforced censorship is targeted & discretionary whether you support bip110 or oppose it, you should at least know what censorship means

No idea why, I’m on Damus. You can zap me on Club Orange if you like.

core devs could end this in 5 minutes by announcing that they’re going to change OP_RETURN default back to 80bytes
