I just published a blog post about #Nostr, where I discuss my first impressions, compare it with ActivityPub, and explore the possibilities of Zaps. I'm absolutely loving it so far! https://dri.es/nostr-love-at-first-sight Feedback welcome!

Thanks for the great write up on Nostr and comparisons to Mastodon. True decentralization paired with Zap micro-paymets creating a value for value economy will yield great success for Nostr.
As for Bitcoin's energy usage, just because something uses a lot of energy, doesn't mean it's bad. 🤙
It's great to have a web pioneer like yourself here as we move into a permissionless, decentralized, and ownership fueled new era.
Thanks again!
a very nice explanation.
you write in this post you are concerned about bitcoins energy consumtion!? dont worry. climate change is a cult.
well say
Nice, I broadcasted it at least but you are still unzappable just so you know. Have you attached wallet and and got your nip-05?
Just promoted my Nostr blog post on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Dries/status/1626222882874593280 Not sure how that makes me feel …
*opens my newsletter inbox and sees Dries mentioning Nostr* My reaction with goosebumps whhuuut…whaa!!! As a Drupal developer I didn’t expect to see any Drupal related content here so early! And especially not from you! I also wrote a blog two weeks ago about Nostr, I share the same excitement as you!
Pretty great protocol isn't it?
