Who do you think I should follow on nostr? Who do you think should follow me?

Actually a very famous and influential figure in the video game industry. His ground breaking work on RTS and the foundations of 4x and colony dev games will always be gold tier

how does one get started without paying anything, is that possible?

An ai response for you:

Nostr Cost

Nostr itself is a decentralized protocol and does not directly charge users for its use. However, there are costs associated with using certain features of the Nostr ecosystem, particularly those related to cryptocurrency transactions. Here are some relevant points:

Lightning Network Payments: Users can send and receive small payments, known as ā€œZaps,ā€ using the Lightning Network. These transactions typically involve very low fees, but users need to have a Lightning wallet set up to facilitate these payments.

Relay Hosting: Running a relay, which is necessary to participate in the Nostr network, can involve hosting costs if you choose to host your own relay. However, there are public relays available that do not charge for usage.

Third-Party Apps: Some third-party applications built on top of Nostr might charge for premium features or services, but the core protocol remains free to use.

Private Key Management: Managing your private key securely might require the use of a password manager or other security tools, which could have associated costs.

Cryptocurrency Transactions: If you use Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies to send payments through the Lightning Network, you might incur small fees depending on network conditions and the specific implementation you use.

Overall, the core functionality of Nostr is designed to be free and accessible, with costs mainly arising from optional features or external services.

It was more who is deciding to block these and how are they coming to these conclusions. From what perspective and what's the angle of perception and the end goal. Then next question would be why and how.

To answer your question, on a client behind suitable layers of obfuscation

They are looking at client side alterations to remove and flag content pro actively. Seems like censorship
