Nostr Web Client

I'd love to see something like this written as an op-ed on media - this idea of how nostr is changing the internet, the internet renaissance

It's not even just Nostr. It's happening everywhere. I posted a few days about about once.com, the new initiative from DHH and Jason Fried (from 37signals). They're eschewing the SaaS model and selling software outright again so that customer can simply run it on their own infra.

Even in normal SaaS land, companies are feeling the crunch. Customer acquisition has gotten extremely difficult (and expensive), retention is always a challenge when customers get stung with a bill every month, and the prices of most major SaaS tools has gotten astronomical.

Maybe I should start by simply writing something in long-form on nostr:npub1048qg5p6kfnpth2l98kq3dffg097tutm4npsz2exygx25ge2k9xqf5x3nf.

I remember reading about how the internet changed forever after 95' with Windows 95 - both on mass reach and in centralisation. I think this was from the ‘culture of dead cow’ - the early days internet hackers / anarchist era in the 80’s / 90’s.

Just recently I was reading this idea on hackers news - that perhaps it's time to shift away from cloud and have your own storage - not sure if its the same thing you are talking about - and it got me rethinking a lot of things esp on having own relays and what i felt about it. And that maybe I need to change my stubborn ways.

I had a very overarching thought on how Nostr is changing the way the internet is and as you have rightfully pointed out, many others too are moving towards decentralized ways and reversing the damage aka “back to the future” mode. But you have written it out so well here and in Habla.

What if articles like this are sent to a broader audience - to start this spark or this hype of what the internet was and slowly bring in the concept of Nostr? And maybe if we want to reach the masses, we can go where the masses are ? I’m just thinking out loud.
