Is Bluesky even a thing anymore?
Browsers (and certificate authorities) have become a necessary evil. Time to change that. nostr:note123mgkek2mkw8qg8lvt6v3tcqdr7x7xu8lm9qwqpk80daz04zwqfqdqcc4t
It’s refreshing that nobody on #nostr really talks about (or really cares about) #AI. For sure, it’s a great tool, but on those other platforms hardly a swipe goes by without seeing a post on the existential threats, etc. of #AI.
My take is that here on #nostr we have a predominance of builders and creators that take the new tech in stride, seeing new opportunities. In contrast, on the other platforms, it’s all about fear and how to slow down, regulate or outright stop the innovation, until we figure out ‘what’s best for society’. It’s the shift in power structures that is the underlying fear. If you are a builder or creator that’s the last thing you need to worry about - because it’s you who is shifting the power structures.
Since Npub.pro launched last week, more than 150 people created nostr-based websites!
Here are some awesome examples that stood out the most to me:

Amazing creators indeed are on Nostr! A beautiful website theme can really help your content stand out!

Do any of the themes have RSS feeds? I just got asked that question.
Signed Events Relayed (SRE) is as big of a deal as Proof of Work (POW).

Here is another demo of my NIP implementation.
Now using ephemeral events, NIP-44 encryption and NIP-59 gift wraps:
https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1276
I suggest we’ll call it NIP-80 after the default http port.
Imagine future browsers ( #browstr ) allowing you to enter http://
It can also be useful for #iot devices that can serve a simple configuration-website and allow “browsing” them from anywhere in the world. I think TOR is too complicated to run on such devices.

My spider-sense is that this is a symptom of a more fundamental problem: an institution that believes it is always right and the wisest despite indications to the contrary. When you’re forced to do things you no longer believe in, it leads to #burnout. 
Right on! Internet had to be built on phone lines so phone lines could be built on the internet.
You know an architecture is right when it begins to use higher order components of itself. Case in point: my website in my profile is now: https://tim-bouma.npub.pro/ which is composed of my #nostr events.
Depend on the internet for availability.
Don’t depend on the internet for confidentiality or integrity.
Use #nostr
Blast Radius protocol attack - affecting pretty much every network router and switch
Most applications and platforms try to do too much, most of which is done badly. Then they try to lock you in with the badly done stuff.
I am hoping that certain central bank policymakers realize that they don’t have a hold on the ultimate wisdom of the economy and adjust accordingly. I also they admit to their past mistakes, especially flooding the economy with money, not realizing the adverse consequences of inflation and increased real estate prices. Looks obvious after the fact but they will alway explain away.
Another great example of a good faith effort at solving a problem that the existing web architecture has made intractable.
Today, every app is its own walled garden for identity so you have go prove yourself from scratch every time. Identity verification is a great business to be in because you get to solve the same problem over and over again without actually addressing the root problem.
What is the root problem? Identity is not a native part of the network. It's a bespoke add-on to every application. #nostr solves this with the #npub because it externalizes identity into the network. Proven once that it's your #npub, you can use with all of the apps that are part of the #nostr network.
The road back into the city. 
The market will figure that out. If someone needs an industrial or military-grade client to protect an #nsec,they will build it.
