An early idea, would it be useful for relays to decorate notes with tags/info and sign those with their own nsec key?
Clients could then read the tags and decide what to do with them. Like NSFW, X rated content, detected language, etc.
The note remains unchanged, but certain relays could become specialized at certain content detection and tagging.
It would be too funny if the #bsod outage is because they forgot to rotate a security certificate…again.
Bitcoin is an open source, censorship resistant protocol for money.
Nostr is the same for identity/speech.
What else needs an open source, censorship resistant protocol?
The future is here, it’s just not evenly distributed
Love it! Thank you!
I imagine the bill is still small, but if we want millions or 100s of millions of users on nostr, someone has to foot the bill for storage once it gets large.
Pagination on replies to a note?
Probably still early enough that people might do this - you can even run one on your phone.
But I agree with what I think is your point that most plebs won’t, so paid relays make sense.
Nostr paradigm shift: you are responsible for your own long term storage.
If you want your posts to last a long time, you must store them in a trustworthy relay (or three).
Free relays will work for a bit, but running your own relay (full self sovereignty) or paying a relay or two is a good idea.
What do you get?
- no one can turn off your account
- no ads unless you want them
- no algorithm to enrage you
Feels a bit like a why not? It's an interesting experiment and I think it's likely it could find some powerful use case and also pretty likely it remains a niche experiment.
Question: what are we replacing or new capability are we unlocking?
Maybe removing DNS... though the point of DNS is to make websites easy to find vs IP addresses, and npubs are at least as hard to know/remember as and IP address.
If that's the feature, instead of the bug, it could enable routing around firewalls or even the great firewall as long as there is some way to learn the npubs.

They are just trying to throw the election at this point. https://x.com/POTUS/status/1813209847246053473
Those are podcasts
We should preserve its current state in #nostr for eternity
Did he really just say rent control?
