An essay explaining why we don't plan to use MLS: https://www.poberezkin.com/posts/2025-08-12-mls-the-naked-king-of-end-to-end-encryption.html

A sidenote, is that Nostr's Whitenoise avoids its main problem.

TL;DR: MLS security model is "Trust me bro".

large groups should be assumed to be public anyway, MLS is much worse than the signal protocol

MLS is garbage made by retarded academics that have lost their touch with the real world long ago

files don't have to be fully loaded into RAM, they can be streamed from disk

there is also the http range header that is fully compatible with blossom

it sucks and the answer makes no sense

lex friedman is very fake

but this video is quite underwhelming, a leftist smear campaign

the guy in the video think jan 6 was a coup or something

tkinter is such a joy

what is this?

these are obvious statements

but I think lots of people need to read them

thank you

why did you compile and not download a binary from their website or a package manager?

I appreciate the open source radicalism though

You all know🌲 https://theforest.nostr1.com (and the upcoming #NFDB mirror) as Nostr's largest and best manually-curated relay. This is the place to post your notes, as we make sure the stream is a good read, so that Nostriches are tempted to look straight at the global feed.

We regularly revamp the content, to keep it relevant, diverse, and informative, as a service to our subscribers. It's been a while, but we will be slowly integrating additional npubs into the feed, so things should get even more interesting.

Happy reading!

is it free to read?
