My take on this question is: Unique capabilities.
When there will be things that a creator can do only in Nostr, creators will come to Nostr
Features:
-Post to the forum, and to directly to Nostr relays at the same time
-Replies from (non-forum) Nostr users are also visible on the forum, pulled from the Relays.
-This is like a Combo of Reddit/Twitter into one
Perks:
-You can get Discovery and the topic focused conversation like a forum,
-But keep your voice, brand, independence, and followers like a regular Nostr client.
More Benefits:
-Content is organized by topic
-Moderators can filter spam
-New users can be heard
Open Ecosystem:
-Open Source
-Forums can federate with each other, like a CDN.
-ANY encryption keys work.
-Ethereum wallets can talk to Nostr users, and vica-versa. Rather than view this as hostile competition, instead think of this as increasing Nostr's reach. And the number of people rejecting Big Tech goes up.. just like your followers..

How is this built? Is there any code which is open source?
I wonder if this family will be voting for increasing social welfare, carbon taxes, "green" initiatives and other socialists agendas in Australia.
Or did they understand where New Zealand went wrong....?

I am happy to see these posts. Even if they are anti #israel. It means Nostr is expanding and it's becoming a place also for non Blockchain fanatics.
Hopefully in the future Nostr will also be embraced by people with sane politics...
Is there a reddit type client yet?
Retoswap is excellent. Until the government invests resources into catching swappers.
They can use the non private Bitcoin and tether addresses to locate one party and put him in jail.
Once this happens people will stop using it.
These laws will quickly be interpreted that a private citizen will not be allowed to buy a significant amount of xmr over a period of time.
Since no exchange will sell xmr, the best/only way to get xmr is by swapping Bitcoin for xmr in a p2p method. But agencies can recognize the target Bitcoin address as part of the swapping network. Using this they will bring charges against the buyer of xmr, since his Bitcoin wallet is attached to a KYC wallet.
Buying with cash will become near impossible with anti cash laws. Not to mention that people who will do the exchange can be prosecuted as unlicensed exchanges.
If you think that I am wrong, please tell me how can I exchange my fiat to xmr in an efficient, untraceable manner.
This event can't be found on my relay
But they can make it impossible to purchase
I don't think scientists know what consciousness is, so it's not a surprise that they don't know why it exists.

Not new.
There was once an article where a professor argued that reading to a child before bed time should be illegal since it creates inequality

And how will they live? How will these people generate wealth?
This post made me feel old. 486 is ancient..

I don't think trump wants to talk with the CCP
As always, Ragen has excellent humor!
People with power would always use it to their advantage.
Putting "your" person in office is a false solution.
The solution is to take away power from government.
