"ex official said: this might happen and that might mean" how is this relevant news?
I use Signal, but I'm unable to force everybody to do the same.
It seems to me that there will be much less relays than there are AP nodes. Users won't publish/subscribe to hundred of relays (if they did, relays would not scale). Hence more bad content to less moderators, and poor moderation.
Adding client filters would just shift the censorship power to those maintaining them.
In actually decreases with time (by half every four year, unless the value increases equally, which is unlikely in the long run). However you should compare the energy per transaction, which is pretty lame (5txs per seconds or similar).

Pow does not limit spam in bitcoin. Fees do. Pow is used as a decentralized election mecanism to distribute the block production.
I'll be waiting for the dialer, sms, and contact apps in f-droid. Gallery is there already. Too bad I donated a couple of times to Tibor; wish you all the best anyways !
