Not familiar with it but just boosted it and tagged some Dutch people who might know more about this.

Thanks!

Maybe nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240 might know as well

Sounds like they're pretty invested in the Fediverse and GNU Taler

regardless it seems like nostr aligns with their stated mission on their website 🤔

NLnet were the first Dutch internet pioneers setting up access (dial-in) point in several cities. Back in 1995-1996. They receive millions from the EU to spent as grants to several projects.

They used to fund a ton of Nix stuff!

oh awesome
