Welcome again to Nostr, maybe this time you stay! I give you two powerful reasons: 1. In Mastodon (I use it as well) user's identity is tied to a specific server (instance), Nostr uses instead a public key system that allows users to maintain their identity and activity history across different clients and relays, making them independent of any single server operator. In summary, you are way more censor resistant, relay owners may mute you, ban you but with so many relays it will be useless and you never loose your identity. 2. Micro Bitcoin payments with cashu and lightning built in, I see you already configured your npub . cash wallet, well done. I encourage you to get a vanity address too, helping the developer who charges a small fee. I suggest you find a tribe with hastags, # Nascar (no space), etc, use #askNostr for the community to assist you, many Follow that hashtag. Follow the hashtag of your preference as if it was an user. Welcome others that are new, many use and follow # introduction, although be cautious, I used to Welcome every new comer and end up added into muted lists which makes the algorithm to male my profile and posts less visible, not that I care since I value more the new user but no good deed goes unpunished. I keep doing so to this day and invite you tp do the same. I left you a DM with additional information, the DMs are EE2E, In explain you as well how in the DM. Enjoy Nostr!

WOW, well, now it makes sense, and that is true, you are in Mastodon at the mercy of a server admin LOL. Thank you! Didn't thought about the micro economy, but the npub.cash wallet is not very useful, I transfer SATs to it and I can withdraw to my WOT, but I can use it to pay anything, is that normal? What is your suggestion?

After receiving you can withdraw to another cashu supported wallet that supports LN as well, there are few options, I believe nostr:nprofile1qqstxwlea9ah3u6kjjszu6a7lrnhqkfh8eptp2z6v0e9558tlkkl2rgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszxnhwden5te0wfjkccte9ekkjmnfvf5hguewvdshx6p0qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0wsvavr is the best, do your own research.

Minibits, okay, will look into it, thank you again!

true decentralization

It is a fair comparison, both decentralized, but Nostr is much more, unfortunately an echo chamber for us bitcoiners, therefore it lacks broad engagement

yes

withdraw to WOT?, I believe you are confused, you can't withdraw to WOT because it is not supporting cashu, you need to use a cashu supported wallet, Primal and 0xchat come with built wallets, not many good options, minibits is solid

Minibits is definitely excellent

We see what we choose to see....
