Just wanted to introduce myself. I have been involved various social media in the past but heard of this open concept about a year ago. When I heard about Nostr, I signed up. I do not like censorship and think that we need more free speech and free thinking.
My interests vary, I am very fond of Christian apologetics, science, building things, and unusual and hidden history.
Currently, I am engineer in the aerospace industry but in the past I worked in art before I went to school.
The growth of Nostr is very impressive and I look forward to seeing the growth to come.
I invite people to follow my feed as I will be and have been posting some of the many unusual facts in history and science.
~Cheers!

How do I enter a line break in a post?
Hashtag use and maybe a survey of what is being used?
Same here! #[2]
Just watched it! Thank you, Cheers!
Ahh! Thank you. Still trying to soak up all the nostr info! Cheers!
How to post images and videos are of interest to me.
AI cannot be true “Artificial Intelligence” if it has a programmed in political or societal bias as seen in ChatGPT and other AI. Intelligence requires independent thought, otherwise it is just a pet on a leash. Human intellect is special and cannot replicated by silicon and programming.
Marco Polo wrote in "The Travels of Marco Polo, the Venitian" his account of his long journey to China. The book was written after his return to Venice in 1295. He wrote of creatures in the land of Karazan that do not fit the description of any known living creature. They were described as:
"[H]uge serpents, ten paces in length, and ten spans in the girt of the body. At the fore part, near the head, they have two short legs, having three claws like those of a tiger, with eyes larger than a fourpenny loaf and very glaring. The jaws are wide enough to swallow a man, the teeth are large and sharp, and their whole appearance is so formidable, that neither man, nor any kind of animal, can approach them without terror."
He then told of the hunters that take the creatures as prey and later eat them:
"Those whose employment it is to hunt them observe the track by which they are most frequently accustomed to go, and fix into the ground several pieces of wood, armed with sharp iron spikes, which they cover with the sand in such a manner as not to be perceptible. When therefore the animals make their way towards the places they usually haunt, they are wounded by these instruments, and speedily killed."
"..The flesh also of the animal is sold at a dear rate, being thought to have a higher flavour than other kinds of meat, and by all persons it is esteemed a delicacy."
With all the lies that have come out in the past two years. Does anybody think that it stops with what we have all seen? What about our past history, ancient history, evolution? How much have we been lied too? It goes much deeper than what we are experiencing now… much deeper.
I am very new to Bitcoin. I have been in it about 4 weeks. I have already started my own Bitcoin an lightning node. The lightning network is an absolute paradigm shift in the way money flows. Just with the zaps in nostr alone, it has the ability to incentivize better posting. I am not sure we even know the effect that this will have in social media. It is still very early. Just my thoughts. Cheers!

Thank you for the information. I have been on Medium for awhile and it doesn’t seem like it is growing? I could be wrong. I have been sitting on some writing waiting for a good venue. Will check it out. Cheers!
New guy question here: what is Habla. News? And why are you moving from medium? FYI I am on medium and looking for a replacement.
Yes, thank you. Your tutorial was exactly what I needed. I was unsure if I could just paste in the email looking address into nostr. You answered my question! Cheers!
Thank you for the Zap! My first ever! This is freaking cool! I was just trying to explain what a paradigm shift nostr is to my wife. I have been wanting to post my writing somewhere for people to read, but I didn’t want to be beholden to cancel culture. This may be the place. I can’t tell you how exiting this is and the financial change that Bitcoin can provide. Thank you again! Cheers!
