just got my verification badge at iris.to, was super easy..

don't get how it works & i am not interested in crypto so i hope i can still continue to use #nostr without it getting too complex, but i am more active on Bluesky and Twitter anyways.

Am I allowed to use #Nostr without knowing anything about Bitcoin? 😅

Asked perplexity ai 🤖 how keys on #nostr work (because I’m thinking surely it’s really dangerous just having a private key?? (What if it’s taken)

“The private key on the social media site Nostr is a crucial security feature that users must keep confidential[1]. This key is used to sign and authenticate posts, ensuring their security. If compromised, the private key could lead to unauthorized access to a user's account and posts. However, on Nostr, the private key is not shared with anyone, providing a secure way to post without the risk of compromise.

Users should be cautious not to share their private key online to prevent unauthorized access to their account and posts. The decentralized nature of Nostr means that once a post is made, it cannot be deleted. Therefore, safeguarding the private key is essential to maintain the security and integrity of a user's account and posts on the platform[1].

I’m just confused how the verification things here work.. too late now but I wish this wasn’t related to BTC (this whole Nostr project)

Got more, will post later. nostr:note1dttwd3ewkh244muylw4mfhu7eh83fd4d6ydhw4mdzwwxukvkrc7q8grsmz

Do you think we’ll ever get a delete post button on here?

What’s a nostr address? (Sorry I’m dumb)

I like the long posts tho, like Twitter Blue’s but free 🤣

Do you think nostr can be used without liking bitcoin?

🥧

I agree with the ppl who say that tbh. Not interested in bitcoin, almost completely puts me off Nostr seeing it. Although I love how this all works :/

Linux is so satisfying https://video.nostr.build/802659eed9b1df63a1e0438e93614ba2feaa32f884980779ebc1d601415c6fad.mp4

pick a Freddie :))

Would you guys think this is only for #BTC community??

If it is I'm leaving this app but I don't want to 😭

Merry Christmas 🎄

Edit: for the purchasing one assuming sats is related to zaps/bitcoin/crypto.

I know a lot of this community is into that but I know nothing about it 😭. probably not the best idea for me to be using this since like 80% of what I see is bitcoin related somehow.

oh well ig

Thanks!

Love the opportunities that will rise from the open source code. Already seen some cool projects. Also got Bluesky and there's already cool apps for that and it's In beta!! only known about this decentralisation thing about 2 months and I'm studying comp sci at GCSE still but I hope to have some sort of job related to this when I'm older.
