Tell me if my Internet vs. Nostr analogy is correct.
Today's internet is basically sending information through a path that all goes through a central point and then back out again to wherever it wills. That central point (regardless of what it is) is controlled and owned by a regulating authority or business license of some kind.
Nostr is like talking on a CB or a Ham radio. You send messages out from you, from your location, and some people in the surrounding area within range picks up your message. If needed, they'll repeat that message from their CB or Ham radio to their surrounding area where some more people in their range picks it up... and so on.
Is that the right way to describe it?

Let's try this again. Testing.
Itβs been fun trying the different interfaces/clients to access Nostr.

How do I sign out?
I thought I was able to sign out yesterday, now I can't find where that is.
I'm trying to read different docs, but I'm not fully understanding what I'm reading.
There's Alby, GetAlby, an Alby Chrome extension, AlbyHub, a node, a wallet, an open channel that has spending and savings, hooked up apps, each with a spending limit, but I have to buy another channel of something to receive payments? I subscribed to a cloud plan of some kind, but I don't know what place that's coming out of.
I think I have everything linked together right, but something is telling me I don't.
I clicked like on a post, but the heart didn't stay lit.
I'm signed in, but I'm not sure if this will post. (It didn't the first time I tried.)
I'm feeling a little lost.
I spent about 4 hours yesterday getting setup, saving keys, buying Bitcoin, but I still don't understand everything.
Where can I go to see the relationships between all the "things" in complete newbie speak?
I want to make sure I understand and that I'm doing things in a way that won't wreck anything important.
First note here. π
