Can someone who can see this video post a link?
Wait until nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj turns on the big guns. 😁
TheForest is getting a nostr.land tech stack, mirroring our current relay.
Ah, I can't see the original article.
I've been thinking about this, some more.
This is actually how the Internet started out, with lots of local area networks. And then people started running cables for larger and larger networks, and then eventually figuring out how to bridge the gap between those, with TCP/IP.
The Internet has since been captured, censored, and micromanaged by governments and large corporations (but, I repeat myself). They have steadily doubled-down on the centralization, by working together with companies like Twitter, Apple, Google, Tencent, Facebook, etc. to funnel everything you do and say through their political filters. The mess they made of Corona merely made them more aware of the technical loophooles they had left, allowing for their citizenry to politically organize and loudly disagree with their nonsense. They are now busily closing those loophooles.
It doesn't make sense, to me, to just do the same thing they are doing, but with a purple bird. That does not bring freedom. Radical freedom is something that will always be a bit subversive, even if it is well-meaning and honest, as most people actually enjoy being told what to do and say, and are quickly upset at the idea that someone might do something or say something that they have never heard of or thought of.
Being small, nimble, fluctuating, wiley... passing notes back and forth under the desks at school, flashing secret signs in the hallway, meeting up in person... This is how you gain freedom under tyranny, not by fighting to be class speaker.
There is no such thing, after all, of a universal town square. Not even a virtual one. Rather, there are many towns, and each has a square, and you can stand in the Speaker's Corner in each of them, separately, or travel from one to the other and repeat your speech.
This is how we win.
Global is dead. Long live global.
I think in pictures, and my feed reflects it.

Tired.
Yes, absolutely. And wartime journalism is extremely important. But it still makes the war more expensive.
Grotesque.
Boggles the mind, that people just keep giving him money.
Nah, I'm Sudetendeutsche und still regularly visit cousins in Egerland.
Yes, everyone has forgotten that Germany used to be much bigger. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was also sprawling.
Same as the Germans after WWI.
Not really. Look how much money NATO burned fighting goat herders with Kalishnikovs.
If you don't want your soldiers to die, but you're fighting a ground war amidst civilian non-combatants in a foreign country, with journalists live-filming everything you do, war is mind-numbingly expensive.
Yeah, Hamas is still very popular. Most Gazans want the war to continue.
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!
Yeah, turbulence is up. I can't stand mid-Atlantic flights, anymore. 🤢
Only party not completely onboard is the AfD. Which proves that they're the only real opposition.
Interesting.
Yeah, they say IDing everyone on the Internet will save us from Russian disinformation. 😏
Yeah, same. Also, they know Bitcoin is a scam. 🤷🏻♀️
Yes, that's what I mean. That's why they already assume to know my age. I paid with a credit card years ago.
You misunderstood me.
War against Israel is a permanent part of the Palestinian culture. It's their main reason to exist, as a society, at this point. Any Palestinian state is bound to start another war.
That's why nobody wants their refugees. You let them in, and they just use your country as a base to launch another war with Israel.
Well, there you go.
Gazans will all move to France.
That's what all of the visualization and the never-ending linkage is for, on Alexandria. We want people to meander through the notes.
We already discussed GitCitadel's contributions to the fund, so that all Alexandria users get to enjoy those features.
I will also be making a personal contribution.
Let no good deed go unpaid, Nostr.
Like, you could have an aggregator relay that lets you filter by language.
Don't know, if nostr.land has considered something like that. He's working on an AI-translation service, so nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj has the tech stack for it.
The japanese relay use IP addresses, I think.
Language could be another hint.
It's a hard-coded set of npubs that they propose you add to your Kind 3 follows list, when you onboard.
To see the complete list, just create a new npub on Primal.net, by clicking
There are lots of categories, but they're mostly subsets of main.
Also, I hit a complete follow-wall around 6k. Nothing I did budged that number, for nearly a year.
Sometimes went entire weeks without adding a single follower. That is completely unnatural, so I have questions.
I'm not an OG, but I arrived right before the WoT stuff started and everyone stopped looking at global, so I've had to really scrape follows together. Npub by npub.
That's why I sit in steerage, even though I regularly trend. It's a paradox that confuses everyone. Why is she always so frustrated and angry, when we all see her stuff and respond? You can see my stuff and respond because I've worked on this from sunup to sundown, every damn day, for two years.
It's been absolutely brutal and if I weren't trying to market projects and promote my frens, I would have long since thrown in the towel.
This has been way too hard. It doesn't make sense that it's such a struggle to post such popular content, but I simply missed the OG jump and am permanently screwed.
Also, end the situation that there is anyone on Nostr without a local relay.
That, right there, is the core problem.
And we are working hard to solve it.
📞 I'm old enough to remember what it's supposed to represent. 😂
🤙🏻 This used to mean: call me.
