Yesterday they flipped the switch on social media for under-16s. The real lesson isn’t the age limit. It’s that any government can kill “social media” overnight.
Because social media has a front door. A handful of companies you can knock on (or threaten).
Nostr has no front door.
It’s not even social media. It’s an open protocol, like email or the web. Social media is just one thing people build on it. You also get marketplaces, blogs, long-form, payments, communities, and whatever else people dream up.
Your identity and data live with you, not in some corporate database. Apps like @Clave (iOS) and @Amber (Android) make it dead simple and secure: they keep your key safe in your phone’s hardware and let you sign into lots of Nostr clients without pasting nsecs, creating accounts, or signing up. No foreground app required.
And the best part: they’re not social media apps. They’re keys to the entire open Nostr world.
Sovereignty isn’t coming. It’s already here.
