People today love their cats and dogs. I mean really love them. Imagine your pet was also essential for your survival. Imagine it was your hunting partner, your car, your tractor. Imagine the bonding you would experience with that animal. I can completely see why horse cultures were so strong, but it is hard for me to imagine what it was like. View quoted note →

Freedom isn't free. It comes with responsibilities. To the extent you want to create freedom-tech, you have to understand that it is going to come with extra responisbilites for the end user. That is a given. You have to take on the responsibilities that states and corporations were once doing for you, to become free from them. We can make the responsibilities for the user simpler and easier, but we can't ever make them go away. Being completely self sovereign, means taking care of everything yourself.

I understand the desire to make Nostr more accommodating to the normies. That though is not my desire. Nostr is now my home, and I am working to make my home, the most advanced, bad-ass, cypher-punk place in cyberspace. I'm not going to be making tools for normies.  I'm making advanced tools for people like me.

Being anonymous on Nostr is the equivalent of holding your own keys. Why aren't you anonymous? You are giving up a superpower.

As social media fragments (FB, IG, X, TS, Rumble, Fediverse, Nostr, etc) does it become more or less important?
