   How ActivityPub works, and how Nostr works.

     @taoeffect Same problem on ActivityPub, especially with all the server-level blocking that goes on.
     
     Also an interesting thing about Nostr... is that you can take someone else's event and put it on a relay. So when a user replies to or reposts something, their client often does just that.

     @alex It seems like on Nostr people miss a lot of information / conversations because they're not connected to the same relays, is that correct?

     @alex @taoeffect can you put your preferred relays on your account metadata somehow, I know you can do that on your NIP-05 .well-known/nostr.json endpoint.

     @Moon @taoeffect Yep, there are several ways to do it. NIP-05 is one, so is NIP-65. https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/65.md
     
     There is also "The Gossip Model" based on the Gossip client which aggregates and scores the best relays for each user depending on past events.

     @taoeffect Yes and yes. The first part is optional - it's up to the client.

     @alex Their client takes someone else's event and duplicates it to all the relays they're connected to, is that what you're saying? Each time they reply to a message?

     If so, do relays detect duplicate events and avoid storing them?

     @ahmad What is your question even about? ActivityPub? Nostr?

     What I didn't understand is:
     1- who is hosting the instance?
     2- does my I stance store data from other I stances? If yes, what data exactly and why?
     3- let's say I've banned a user, that user can just view my instance from another instance as if nothing happened?
     4- when a user exists on more than one instance at the same time using the same account. How can I moderate them? And who stored their data?

     @ahmad In Ditto it works exactly like Pleroma except users can log into any instance with their same credentials. You're still the admin, you can still moderate content.
