Introducing: https://exit.pub:

The last bridge you’ll need to port over your data into the new world of decentralized freedom-tech.

1. Download your twitter archive

2. If Elon agrees, you’ll get a zip file; uncompress it and just use exit.pub to import your data into nostr

✅ original dates are used; whatever you posted in 2009 will show up as posted in nostr in 2009

✅ granular control of which tweets to import (threads, non-replies, replies)

✅ V4V, you choose how much your shitposts are worth

✅ it *should* preserve embedded images

✅ granular control of which relays you want to publish to

Try it out:

nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 begged me to come up with this.

NOSTR is a set of agreements on a file system. Everyone indexes their own files using cryptography to describe under whatever name the data is published.

Because these names are random and unique, there is no conflict among the identities so they can all exist next to each other.

This means the data can be gathered and redistributed by anyone, and they don't have to concern themselves with indexing such that others know what to ask for.

You yourself can be such a relay, or  use any (multiple of) services out there to transmit your notes and other stuff to anyone who asks for it.

This Notes and Other stuff Transmitted Over Relays (NOSTR) protocol is not special because it uses public private key pair cryptography.

Its method of success among all attempts out there is realizing that the indexing part is not what is ultimately important in becoming an open standard; but the practical, concrete means used in applying the index amongst each other.

Complexity in integrating the protocol into other systems results in centralization of development. The consequence is a limited offer in software resulting in a no longer really open standard that is in the hands of those who facilitate the tools used to speak the protocol.

By being specific on its simple set up, NOSTR can be a new starting point to set up the infrastructure we use on the internet; where we are free to name, share, find and experience.

Why would she say this? nostr:npub1csamkk8zu67zl9z4wkp90a462v53q775aqn5q6xzjdkxnkvcpd7srtz4x9
