RE: NOSTR CENSORSHIP RESISTANCE
- USERS CAN CREATE AS MANY NPUBS AS THEY WISH WITHOUT PERMISSION
- USERS CAN CHOOSE WHAT INFO THEY LINK TO A SPECIFIC NPUB
- USERS CAN EASILY BROADCAST SIGNED NOTES TO THE WORLD
- IMPORTANT NOTES WILL BE SAVED BY THOSE WHO DEEM THEM IMPORTANT
- SAVED NOTES CAN BE VERIFIED WITHOUT A TRUSTED THIRD PARTY
Exactly 👌🏻
Welcome to FREEDOM CITY
Thats awesome tech, thats cypherpunk spirit!
Good, now let’s start calling out Trump and Milei’s shitcoinery scamming, Musk’s nazi family and history of anti-semitism and the PayPal Mafia’s dreams of eugenics (Nazism).
What about the security (opsec) aspect?
this is gold dude
onwards
Sorry, WOT relays say FU lol, sorry, anon
All of your points BTFo'd by Web of Trust
There are other ways of achieving a web of trust.
Very few of the clients implement user-level WoT in a way that doesn't lend itself to censorship, especially if it's opt-out rather than opt-in; combine the flawed relay implementations with the poorly designed client-side ones, and you have Xitter and other centralized social media with extra steps.
Most relays running and depend on cloud services like AWS and Cloudflare, offering zero censorship resistance. Just like Bitcoin nodes, few people will self-host and run their own relays. While Nostr promotes censorship resistance in social media, it lacks default privacy protections, making it ineffective-authorities can still track and identify anyone speaking against them. The only real advantage of Nostr is its flexibility as an open-source protocol. Everything else you mentioned is nonsense!
Amethyst has a built in option to route all traffic over Tor, and of course anything on a desktop would be trivial to do this with as well using something like Tails or Whonix. Running a relay is as trivial as installing an app on your phone.
And who doesn't run their own bitcoin node? Lightning I get, but bitcoin-core or knots are as simple as things get, and absolutely imperative unless you're a monetary exhibitionist.
Your note has zero sense
Is there any way to create ephemeral notes? Notes that self-encrypt after some time?
- USERS CAN REACH UP TO 400 UNIQUE OTHER USERS FOR FREE. IN THE PAST THIS WOULD REQUIRE MICROPHONE ACCESS AT A COSTCO RETAIL STORE.
Yea
🚨 X (FKA #Twitter) is now blocking links to #Signal profiles: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/02/x-is-reportedly-blocking-links-to-secure-signal-contact-pages/
WE SAY GM EVERY MORNING AND NO ONE CAN STOP US
Can we delete our own notes?
You can ask relays to delete them and some will. But just like in meat space, you can't truly ever unsay something.

STAY HUMBLE AND STACK ZAPS ⚡️
