This is very interesting and cool to read. The DNS comparison might not be entirely fair, as [npub].fips isn't really coming from any user-defined records. But regardless, awesome write-up! View article →

We're just 1 week into #soveng, and holy shit...

"We’re drowning in information, but starving for wisdom." View quoted note →

You know this influencoor thing where every week they moved to the next new thing, and the 'old thing' is trash. Would be funny if they start doing that with nostr clients...

Mesh of peers, no king to serve, Each packet rides an encrypted curve, The signal finds a path no censor can reserve.

Nostr + FIPS is like the telephone game, but with perfect information the whole way. Imagine.

"That’s what cancer does. It kills people. Emotionally, socially, and literally. It kills relationships. It kills normal life. Even if you survive it, against all odds, a part of you still dies." These words cut traight though my heart, it really tears one's life to shreds even with a 'good' ending. FUCK! Brother, I hope despite everything that you won't let your head down, because then it won. 🫂❤️ View quoted note →

The invention of Nostr is like the invention of the shipping container. It's just a fixed shape for data; Same width, height and length around which we can build our tools. - The containership - The cranes that lift it - The trucks that move them Social media just happened to be the first thing we've put inside this container...

Feeling pretty bearish on IP's today...
