Nostr is freedom tech, can't be banned and you control your data. You take ownership of your data and who and what you follow. Search around via hashtags, find interesting people and follow who they follow. You'll soon build a healthy follow list. And when you get the chance set up a lightning wallet to zap (you can receive and send small units of Bitcoin), some clients that make this easy are Primal and Yakihone. If you have any questions try #asknostr and someone will help ya out. Welcome!
