Hey #nostr 👋

I was at this restaurant tonight and saw a girl pay for her meal with bitcoin. She started explaining to some people how it works (I already knew how it worked, because my dad gave me a few sats for my birthday). She suggested that if I knew about #Bitcoin, I should hop onto Nostr.

I'm new to this. Just started high school this year, and my parents finally let me get on social media. Still finding my way around, so if any of you can drop some pointers on navigating this platform, I'd appreciate it.

One tip she gave me was to use these hashtags

#nostrich #newtonostr #plebchain #newbies #nostr #grownostr #damus

Very cool, welcome to nostr young friend :)

Welcome! 🤙

Welcome in mate 🫂

Welcome! Takes a little while to get used to the format. Take the time to think about what you say because you can’t delete your replies or notes

You’re doing great for a kid already on Nostr and into Bitcoin. You’re gonna make it 🤙

Welcome.

Welcome 👋🏻🧡👙

Welcome! Glad you’re here!

While you're in high school, don't biy things you don't need. Put all your extra cash into #bitcoin.

This may be too extreme of advice to take literally. OP should probably find some balance to budget and enjoy things they want as well

Welcome

Sounds like Sam the BTC kid

Welcome fren 🤙

Welcome 🙏

Welcome! That’s awesome. Who was it that purple-pilled you, if you’re able to say?

Also curious 👀

It was my father about two years ago

Oh, dad’s your orange-piller! I meant do you know who it was who told you about nostr?

“Sorry, it was a girl from the restaurant I visited last night.”

Ah, just wondering if we might be able to find her here. Are you willing to share anything else (without being too specific), like what part of the planet you inhabit?

She asked me not to say who she is. She was very beautiful, very kind, and very serious about her privacy.

Respect. 🤙

😉

Nostr is the best social media to get started

im sure we could make some educated guesses, but we don't need to know. proof of work will prevail here for all of us 😉

Proof of work you say? Like how the faking works herr ambassadors?

Welcome!

Welcome 🤙

Good follow through kid. 👊

Welcome to #nostr and good job getting on #Bitcoin so early in your life 🤟

Look at other people's profiles to see what relays they use. Add purplepag.es for a performance boost, according to the site, which I just learned about 10 minutes ago.

Welcome!

Welcome mate🫂

That's great. Welcome!

Keep stacking more sats if you can.

Obey. Did you get her number?

Welcome ✨🙏

Enjoy, it's pretty zen here with minimal BS.

Welcome 💜🫂

So lemme explain it:

First of all, nostr is a network of relays who relay ("forward") data coming from the user while also saving it. The user is the one who verifies and creates data.

Do you know what a computer terminal is? This looks a little bit like it. The data is retrieved from the relays and is being sorted by the client(user), based on what it needs (search results etc).

Wow, thanks this is very helpful.

Youre welcome.

So many clients (altough nostr is still in an early phase) support following hashtags: to do this, you need to search in the searchbar for global messages with the hashtags that you like: for example, #homesteading #bitcoin #linux #nostr or anything else.

There will probably somewhere a button to follow this hashtag, so if you find enough nice content, you can follow it and those messages will be in saved in your local feed.

Welcome to Nostr! There is no delete on Nostr, so be careful. Stay humble. Don’t trust, verify. Other than that, I recommend nostr:npub15dqlghlewk84wz3pkqqvzl2w2w36f97g89ljds8x6c094nlu02vqjllm5m ‘s advice for those entering Adulthood:

As someone who adhered very strongly to the “Don’t trust, verify” mantra… I don’t believe you.

But I zapped anyway 🤣⚡️

Don’t trust anyone (except your dad 🤣)
