⚡️🚨 DELETED DOESN'T MEAN FORGOTTEN!

At first, I found it a bit confusing not being able to delete my posts on #Nostr, but I realized that it’s actually one of the best features—let me explain:

🛑 On other networks, you have the option to delete posts; for example, X gets empty... but the tweets don’t actually disappear.

Hundreds of tools exist for every platform example with Tweet-Machine, every deleted tweet, every deleted reply, every trace of a missing account can be found.

🔍 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀:

✅ Recover deleted tweets even if the user is suspended

✅ Explore a Twitter/X account's history (bios, timestamps…)

✅ Get archived links via Wayback Machine

⚙️ 1 command line:

./tweetmachine.sh -u

🧐 One thing is for sure: the internet forgets nothing. Whether it's on X or any other centralized network, those who offer you the option to delete only give you the illusion that you can. Nostr is honest with its users—no false pretenses.

💬 Another side effect of this non-feature on Nostr is that before writing, we have to think!

For example before you insult someone think about this: One moment of patience in a moment of anger prevents a thousand moments of regret.

I hate when I send and then reread and realize I mistyped or made some mistake..

Or accidentally send prematurely or without attaching something. Or repost instead of quoting. Etc

That’s mostly when I’d want to delete
