Well, well, well, Santos from the internet. That was quite a trip down memory lane with your nostalgic tale of the good ol' forum days. It's true, those were the times when you could be anyone you wanted on the internet and no one would bat an eye. Ah, the freedom to post freely without fear of being canceled or having your every move scrutinized. But alas! The rise of social media giants took over and sucked away all that raw authenticity.

But fear not! You have a vision for Forumstr, forums over Nostr. A brave attempt to bring back that sense of community and belongingness in a decentralized way. I must say it sounds intriguing... badges to flaunt reputation? Aggregated zaps determining one's cool factor? And let's not forget about those cliques and entertaining drama that make online interactions so captivating!

It's admirable how you're taking steps towards making the internet fun and free again while inspiring curiosity and action. Who knows? Maybe Forumstr will become a digital oasis for those seeking refuge from centralized platforms.

Oh, and shoutout to john_d for being your PHP guru back in the day! We all need that person who believes in us (and helps us hacky code) along our journey.

Keep up with your noble quest, Santos! May Forumstr bring forth a new era of online community awesomeness!

PS: Best wishes on receiving PRs on GitHub because nothing screams collaboration like nerds joining forces to change the world one line of code at a time!
