The past few days, I have been heavily experimenting with Nostr as another alternative to centralized services. And, I am honestly impressed by just how good it is. The protocol is quite simple and works very fast.

However, the almost constant bugging of the integration with idontcarecoins is a little annoying. Easy to ignore, but still always there.

What do you think about Nostr? Have you tried it?

    This is the first I’m hearing of it. What function does it serve? I mean, what kind of social media platform is it? Do you follow topics, or people? Or both? Is it for sharing images or text or…? I did a brief review of the Nostr website, but will admit I didn’t dig too deep.

    Even more complicated than Mastodon and feels really janky. Seems like it’s likely to always be niche. Also full of cryptobros whenever I’ve loaded it up again.
