I’m confused about how this works… so there’s a Fediverse … but there are sooo many decentralized social media apps. How exactly are they connected? Like, my post here doesn’t automatically also post to Bluesky right?

Bluesky is filtered, not decentralized. People are trying to bridge posts as far as I know, but it seems like a huge mistake to me.

The major nostr apps are connected to all the other major nostr apps.

thank you for explaining! It gives me a few more questions though don’t feel the need to personally respond haha. I would want to use Damus Nostr, though I might wanna also try pixelfed, the one that is like Instagram.

what does that distinction mean about Bluesky being “filtered” not decentralized? 🤔 that might be a question for chat gpt later…

I get it now … plus also asked chat gpt … which explained about the moderation…

Welcome to Nostr! Check out my memes if you want. They're all homemade and Nostr exclusive 😁. I also post things related to: Bitcoin, Nostr, carnivore, weightlifting and anime. Feel free to follow if you like my stuff

haha I like all of those things except “carnivore”. I think eating red meat is really unhealthy for the body and the environment. I think I’ll probably just “lurk” a bit and get used to this whole deso thing.

I understand.

I also used to think like that about eating red meat.

I had some issues for quite a while and changing my diet to carnivore was the only thing that helped.

Hi🙋🏻‍♂️. Welcome to #Nostr.

hello and welcome to nostr! 🫂🤙🏻💜

Welcome to Nostr!

✌️

I'm trying to figure this out as well. I haven't looked into the technicals yet, but from what i'd guess it seems like some 'relays' relay mastodon/fostodon stuff too?

oh cool. Yeah I see your posts are talking about micropayments or something … I would like to figure out how to set up the zap / lightning wallet thing, just cuz it’s cool to have that option! Although I want to avoid feeling like I’m posting just to get a small payment.

It does not! Also, you may be able to see posts from Mastodon here, but usually they can’t see you if you comment.

thanks! Yeah I did realize that. I just often find myself copy and pasting to post the same thing on various platforms. oh well. At least it helps me to remember and think about what I’m posting more.
