Another kick at the blocksize can ordinals always was.

Maybe this was more difficult during the blocksize wars (though not really, everyone including myself sold their bcrash as soon as they got it) because during that time, high transaction fees meant it was hard to use Bitcoin and that was meant to convince people to increase the blocksize.
This time, we can just ignore the high transaction fees with our lightning network channels and muse over shitcoiners paying for our network security.
This should be a clear signal to shitcoiners. Bitcoin is a social construct first, software second and that social construct is around money. Sure its possible to use it for other things, but protocol upgrades will only be considered by the wider community if the upgrade is in regards to security, ease of transactions, or easier storage of funds. Attempts to update the software for reasons outside of that scope will only be laughed at as not part of the purpose of the social construct.

Not to mention, most bitcoiners are not using ordinals, whereas everyone was affected by high tx fees back then.
This is definitely a war they will never win and if they go through with it, it'll be another on the list of worthless forks.

This so much
Also, actually, I am pretty hyped for a fork now. I barely missed the BCH fork.
So I never experienced a hard fork in bitcoin. Maybe I will now haha

Tell them they can just change their code. It's no problem.
But srsly. Are they for real? Is this not sarcasm?
I am not sure. I thought ordinals were created by casa (not sure about the name) who actually is pretty knowledgeable regarding bitcoin etc.?
Who is behind this twitter account? Is it known?

At first, I thought the same way, just a bunch of chads with inscriptions making sarca but following the thread, you see their reply and I quote:
- Ordinals Wallet's tweet

While they are at it, also make blocks come out every minute. Why wait 10 minutes for a block? So much wasted time ...

I hope they realize that this isn't going to work. A change was far more likely during the blocksize wars when a lot of the community was sympathetic to the idea. BCH exists. If they want bigger blocks they can use it.
Plus, why aren't they working on expanding out to RGB? That protocol can handle more data than mainchain could at any blocksize. I want to assume that they just don't know much about it, but it is entirely possible they just want to lean into ordinals bc of hype.

Also, who are these people asking for such 2016-blocksize-wars-request instead of look for better features for their inscriptions? One of them, the founder of Twecht, BSV supporters. Having introduced this, I'm OK with these guys come and develop thing but suggest something like that again. Man...

this garbage has always been an abusive act, and can at best be described as pollution.
all the 'they paid a fee' hurr durr around this is redolent of lolbertarian 'as long as it's private' dribble in the wider world, and just enables more abusive action.
i seem to recall someone posting on here a while back about a block size reduction incentivizing higher fees to combat this, as (apparently) the nature of these inscriptions is hard to technologically defeat - maybe they're right.
