posting directly to a protocol, rather than a company, is incredible.

it is hand-delivering your words to the world rather than entrusting them to someone whose self-interest is adversarial to your own.

and it’s not like other alternatives to Twitter that have survived with hundreds of millions of VC runway. nostr endures because it *is engineered* to do so.

i’ve been here nearly two years, and the endurance of nostr through it all proves that it is here for the long haul.

testing X as L2 integration …

i expect X/Twitter to be a cesspool around election day. lets see how nostr does in comparison…

is it possible to delete posts on Nostr? from what i understand, seems like Nostr is forever 💎

so much respect for y’all consistently posting on Nostr. it reflects good values and clarity of vision!

imagine thinking you’ll have privacy in imperial russia

nostr is looking pretty good!

nice work nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s on Damus

i’m still here

📍 marked safe on nostr

Geopolitical Horseshoe Theory: a Convergence of Bad Ideas at the Extremes

https://read.pourteaux.xyz/p/geopolitical-horseshoe-theory

Our words should support the self-determination of people rather than the imperial ambition of their neighbors

It's time we retire "Mainland" China and "Chinese Taipei," just as we did with "Kiev" and "The Ukraine"

Ukraine & Taiwan are independent countries
