Someone I love wrote to me with a Kickstarter project, asking me to back it

I wanted to, but then was hit with the permission wall: sign up, create an account, give us all your information, credit card info, all this stuff

The current web is built in an infuriating way where you can only support those you like through permissioned walls built by rent-seekers posing as "connectors"

So, I didn't proceed, and didn't back them, which sucks

I hope they will join us on Nostr soon so I can back them effortlessly with sound money and no-rent seeking

I think it's just a matter of time ⏳

Did you choose not to for safety reasons, or as a matter of principal?

I think it's cool to reject as a matter of principal, and of course as a matter of safety, but to come and brag about it to the choir if it was not for safety feels wrong and kinda cringe.

I’m just not doing it

You've made the right choice! They will leave the Matrix when they deserve to. πŸ«‚

LFG πŸš€

Hook them up with geyser! Seriously. Just say it can be β€œanother way” to get funding.

nostr:npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg should be the new standard, I’m not donating to anyone who can’t self custody #Bitcoin. Kickstarter and Gofundme can gtfo

Pls check your nostr dm - demo of Pay to Npub. Send ecash to any npub.

Ready for Geyser?

nostr and bitcoin fix all of this. would your friend consider using nostr:npub1kmwdmhuxvafg05dyap3qmy42jpwztrv9p0uvey3a8803ahlwtmnsnhxqk9?

Will check!

Hey Alex!

The Bushido of Bitcoin by nostr:npub1dtgg8yk3h23ldlm6jsy79tz723p4sun9mz62tqwxqe7c363szkzqm8up6m is a great example of the type of Rewards you can sell on Geyser.

Get your friend over here, so they can experience the power of Lightning, Bitcoin and Nostr!
