Enjoy!
Because they are all lame. Welcome!
Nostr is (trying to be) a decentralized protocol built on public key cryptography, not a central company or server. This allows zaps because there is no intermediary to block transactions, take fees, or control the user's identity and data.
Not only #zaps with lightning but any other shit.. crypto or type of payment if needed.
Every client that runs on nostr is a different experience for many reasons and dev choices and because of how nostr works.
Explore it as there's so many Other Stuff Transmitted by Relays to discover.. 💜

So cool to hear that!! 💜⚡IMO, there's no other socials, just censor platforms. 🙏🧡
This is the only “real” social. Welcome home.
You are welcome I suggest Amethyst as phone app to explore thousands of different features in the same app. Be always careful to put your keys in random clients..
holy shit you guys are on nostr now?!? customer for life as of now. you do take bitcoin payments, too, right? i think @npub1cn4t...3vle said you do?
wow 1664 sats is like $1.19. don't spend it all in one go.
You are doing great ⚡
Welcome
If you'd like some help about this weird protocol we call NOSTR I wrote some guides here:
I would start with this one here for some basic concepts:
If you have questions, the tag #asknostr is a good place to start.
If you want to write a brief hello, use the #introductions hashtag to allow people to find and welcome you.
Enjoy freedom speech and money.

They should!
Because most social networks were made for companies
Nostr is for people
Most social networks were made for companies and their ad revenue.
Experience the direct support difference on Nostr.

Because on platforms you are the product.
Bienvenue.

Nostr’s Value4Value (V4V) model is all about plebs directly rewarding creators for the value they receive, no middlemen fees, no ads, just pure community-driven support using sats via the Bitcoin Lightning Network.
