Wake me up at 600bn 🙄

I LOVE the idea of a better telegram built on Nostr. It's a killer app. Telegram has 1bn unhappy users, which is why I was thrilled to speak to the wonderful @npub14yr7...ut6q about his project WhiteNoise 👌

Just bumped into one of my students from when i was a teacher of naughty bastards (I managed to squeeze a B+ out of her for ICT🚀). It was an expensive 1-1 service, but they were a broken lot, mostly youth offending. Now shes a human rights lawyer. This is EXACTLY why its okay for society to spend a little more on fixing broken young people. No one could possibly know the havoc she used to cause 😂, now shes a well-rounded successful adult👌 Made my year.

Currently free speech is mostly an illusion afforded to us by State. We must take control back, centralised walled-garden platforms are not the solution.

I feel that between nostr, torrents, zaps and payment splits, the tools for building a better YouTube exist. Seeders could profit share v4v, users could pay or access for "free" via ads - both paying seeders and creators. Hosting burden is shared across paid users. Content ownership is easy enough with the crypto in nostr.
