I heard about it a long time ago but I skipped that. Then they told me about it again on Signal Bitcoin group and I got attracted with the idea of signing with a key instead of a traditional login. And I wanted to try that
Discussion
I found out about Nostr from r/Reddit_Alternatives lol
I've only ever used Reddit like once in my life lol
What a combination of circumstances
I was already on what some might consider to be a Reddit alternative. I figured that a Reddit alternative and a Reddit alternative alternative probably weren't too different from eachother, so I checked a few out.
The last website I was on was better than every web platform I've tried except for in one way: Admin didn't let his users talk with pedophiles. So I decided to switch to an otherwise far inferior platform where administrators can't decide who is allowed to talk with eachother.
