- freedom tech?

- ...?

#asknostr

I still haven't purchased anything from a censorship resistant nostr market. Several months back, I created a nostr market using lnbits.

I even tried to give some product away for free to generate some traffic, but was essentially unsuccessful.

My market is still up, but gets no traffic.

Have there been any updates?

Is anybody running a market? If so, link to it.

It’s my birthday today.

I’m going to zap every sat i receive for my bday all to #nostr newcomers so they feel welcome 🪄💜

#zap away 🤘

My story —

Grew up in a Catholic family. Went to mass every Sunday. Believed in God as it was portrayed by the Church.

As a teenager, I began questioning religious dogma, and came to the conclusion that it’s all nonsense. There is no God. There is no afterlife. Credulous people are simply engaging in wishful thinking, as a way of coping for their inevitable death. I became a staunch atheist, and scoffed at religious people all through University.

As an adult, I started exploring Eastern philosophy and religions, starting with the Bhagavad Gita. This led me to the works of Alan Watts. I realized I was missing half the picture. God needn’t be thought of as some external ruler pulling the strings from afar. God is better thought of as the divine essence that dwells within every being and non-being. In this sense, it’s true that you cannot die, because “you” are everywhere and everything. In the words of Alan Watts, “You are IT” aka “Tat Tvam Asi.”

At the same time as I was reading Alan Watts, I had a series of profound religious experiences of my own, wherein I experienced the oneness of being firsthand, which eviscerated any strains of atheism or alienation from existence itself altogether.

This search for the Truth continued, and is what has led me to #Bitcoin.

So if you are reading this, and are an atheist, all I can say is that you are on the right path — and that it’s good to question every assumption — but you are not there yet. Keep searching. nostr:note1kddrhz9hg25tzmyx6dz9903pv252ga83un8jqjl9xpqg6kkcqneskc84tq

I have hundreds of burner emails used for various services throughout the years in order to not link my identity across them. Have lost access to most. It is a massive pain and mental burden.

Few appreciate how great it is that we use nostr without attaching an email or phone number to our accounts.
