I have reduced my digital advertising exposure to a minimum - very liberating 🤓: - no more linear TV and no more commercials for years - switched from Google Android to @GrapheneOS - no more mobile operating system tracking, no more Google data mining for ads in God mode - switched from Google Chrome to Brave Browser (mobile/PC) / Vanadium => cookie tolerance and tracking in settings reduced as far as possible - watch YouTube only via Brave Browser => blocks all advertising - Accounts for all meta products deleted and apps removed (Whatsapp, FB, Insta) - Checked all Android apps for trackers and permissions on

Exodus Privacy

=> deleted many apps & open accounts in browser only, because almost all apps track in order ro sell data to multiple data brokers - switched to privacy email services @Tuta and @Proton Mail to avoid email tracking - use hide-my-email aliases from @Proton Mail for commercial burner log-ins - Social media 90% Nostr / 10% X (twitter only in browser) - only in-podcast and in-video advertising from content creators remain. Understand that they do it for monetization, but I always fast forward. Sorry, not sorry. - I send V4V for pods that are V4V only Our podcast @Nodesignal Podcast 🎙 - Deine Bitcoin-Frequenz is Value 4 Value only. It works without advertising.

WTF happened to Blue Collar Bitcoin Pod? #asknostr

I watched the HBO ‘Money Electric’ documentary. Yes, it was entertaining. However, compared to documentaries like ‘Human B’ and ‘Mysterium Satoshi’ (arte), which each attempt to approach an essence of Bitcoin in an individual way, it is very superficial. It seems to me that the real intention of the filmmaker was to document the nation-state adoption of Bitcoin over the course of the past 3-4 years. Hence the many shots with Samson Mow and Prince Philip. As there hasn't been much news about nation-state adoption since El Salvador, the film footage that was recorded probably didn't provide that much after all. So a new (old) story had to be found: ‘Who is Satoshi?’ Bitcoin is so endlessly interesting, its technology is a marvel, its social layer is so diverse and full of enthusiastic individuals who want to change the world for the better. And all the filmmaker can think of is 'Who the fuck is Satoshi!?!' Tell me you don't understand Bitcoin without telling me you don't understand Bitcoin - by pseudo-investigatively pursuing this question and clumsily confronting your Satoshi candidate, yes, Peter Todd, with your supposed revelations using thin arguments. Had the author of the documentary used his time-consuming research to really dive deeper into the essence of Bitcoin, had he tried to understand what gift Satoshi gave the world, then he would have treated the character Satoshi and his creation Bitcoin with more reverence and focused the documentary more profoundly. If you haven't seen the documentary yet, save yourself some time and watch “Human B” or “Mystery Satoshi” again. Or simply read a good book like the “Genesis Book” by Aaron van Wirdum. After reading this deep dive into the prehistory of Bitcoin, it becomes clear that there are many relevant facts on the path to the creation of Bitcoin - but the question of who Satoshi ultimately is is not one of them. The crucial thing is that Satoshi did what was necessary after he launched a new, decentralized, global, inflation-resistant and censorship-resistant money - he kept his pseudonymity and ultimately disappeared. Much more interesting is the question of where I got the documentary without an HBO account. LOL.

Fiat Job Kollegen: I fuckin told them so 😅

Meine Freundin heute: "Wohin fahren wir eigentlich nächstes Jahr in Urlaub?" Ich: "Wie wärs mit Bhutan?" Sie: "Wow, cool! Wie kommst du da drauf?" Ich: "Wollt ich immer schonmal hin..."

By deleting my accounts on - facebook - instagram - whatsapp I made use of Metcalfe's law. I removed hundreds of connections from data mining shit networks. Don't underestimate your voting power in networks - in both directions ⚡

Besides my Bitcoin node, I want to self-host more stuff (PW-Manager, SimpleX, file Sharing, music/video, Nostr, google docs equivalent, etc.). I am torn between yunohost on a vps and @start9 on a local mini server. Ideally, I move my node from my raspiblitz to the new instance. But not a must. What are your recommendations? #asknostr

Is there a way to export or archive your twitter / X posts (before you leave the platform)? #asknostr

After weeks of busy business trips, I had the perfect me-time today. I hiked alone to a peak in the Alps, listened to 3 Bitcoin podcasts, then enjoyed the peace and quiet and was happy about life, my family, my relationship and joy, about our health and about the fact that Bitcoin exists. Life is good.

Question to nostr hive brain: Is there a workaround to use the same Signal account (same phone number) on two @GrapheneOS profiles on the same phone without login in/out on Signal when switching between profiles?

Dear crazy nostr hive brain, are there any usable Spotify Premium frontend alternatives to the official Spotify Android app? I love the spotify music algo, but I hate to be tracked. Especially when I pay for a service. Or any good alternatives to Spotify with a similar UX?

@Lyn Alden's "Broken Money" is so good. After only 4 chapters, I need a new highlighter. "If debasement CAN occur, it eventually WILL occur for any number of reasons."
