gollark: Krist effectively just unconditionally trusts the node, so SC and basically everyone use the krist.ceriat.net one.
gollark: Unless that got fixed.
gollark: It is also really hard and has one long-standing bug which you have to manually patch.
gollark: Krist is not distributed/decentralized. Anyone can run a node, given that they're willing to go through the horrible, horrible configuration and meddling involved (it's unsupported and thus quite irritating), but they won't network together.
gollark: You can't just "disable the anti-siri protection".
