What if you never gave them your name and paid for their services with crypto?

Downhill ever since Brendan Eich left /s

The entire purpose of Nostr is about true censorship resistance and speech autonomy. That doesn’t exist with AP. Even if you self host, others can block your instance and no one will think twice about why the server is on the list.

Nostr gives you more granular control. You can block the nazis or anyone else. There are projects in the works building the equivalent of a Fediblock if you want to take it that far.

Plebbit is dead

Instances mean you’re at the mercy of the admin not to ban you. No one can ban you on Nostr.

Also, it isn’t crypto bros. It’s only Bitcoiners. No one supports the degenerate pump and dump crypto scams.

I’m being downvoted for telling the truth?

Codeberg pages

The Chinese are still laughing because they covertly using their EV cars as trojans

cool

Yup, it’s sad. Oxen is/was a Monero fork, with some actual privacy. Now their pivot to a centralized, VC-backed PoS like Eth that has no privacy is just overall disappointing. It more or less confirms my earlier suspicions that Session devs only care about enriching themselves. The “Sybil resistance” excuse for requiring such a high amount of capital to contribute a node is just a bunch of BS.

It’s just the new AI porn saying “watch me plsss”

If you want layman’s for all of those then use beeper.com heh. Those all are the open source Matrix bridges and a reskinned Element app

And sadly the biggest competitor is Rumble and it’s terrible

You should check out Orion. Now that’s the best browser for iOS with both Firefox/Chrome extension support.

Nostr

I think they mean backlog

This.

No, you’re still missing the point. Bitcoin is the only one that was built out of a self-less, cypherpunk cause, to allow the dismantling of central banker’s grasp on people’s financial sovereignty. The crypto that spun up after bitcoin are all garbage, save for maybe Monero.

Bitcoin is not a Venture Capitalist controlled, pseudo-decentralized scam. There is no CEO. The rest of crypto are all scams or were built to “fix” a utility that didn’t need fixing. Only the money supply and its ownership needed fixing, which is why Bitcoin was created as a permissionless, immutable, decentralized, and deflationary currency. Unlike all fiats, which have been grossly debased in recent years through manipulation by bankers.
