FACEBOOK AND X LEANING INTO “FREEDOM” AS A SELLING POINT MEANS WE NEED TO LEAN IN HARDER. CENTRALIZED PLATFORMS WILL ALWAYS BE CENSORED AND CONTROLLED. TALK IS CHEAP. HYPOCRISY WILL BECOME OBVIOUS TO PEOPLE. THERE IS CLEAR MARKET DEMAND FOR DIGITAL FREEDOM.

THEY GET THEIR RISKS. IMPOSSIBLE FOR THEM TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
WE JUST NEED TO MAKE THE TECH EASY TO USE AND BETTER. THEN THEY’LL HAVE NO CHOICE
Centralized platforms will always be corrupted at some point. The demand for protocols like Nostr will keep increasing. Open source products are de future and our only way to freedom of expression. 🫡
if 'a' can be done, it can be done. if we create a system in which a cannot be done, we can guarantee that a cannot be done in that system. so that's why protocols > apps instead of asking a not to be done, you should use a system where a cannot be done. #nostr and chill
Hace mucho que Elon dice que X es libertad de expresión y siguen censurando 🤷🤦
#nostr has a product market fit and an ethos that freedom loving people demand and recognize. The rest of the field just flip flops where the wind blows. There is no second best

"Guys, we're so sorry we were censoring you. It was a honest mistake hahah :) this time, we won't do it, promise! You can trust me (licks own eyball)"

We capitalize on every instance of censorship when we tell the true stories here, and having the censored come to #nostr to tell it themselves is multiples better.
They may stop deleting posts but they will be limiting reach of content they disagree with. Elon and Zuck deliver nothing but cheap talk. Nostr fixes this bullshit

Most people prefer the convenient lie. Maybe instead of worrying about making things easier for most people, we worry about making it a place that those who value freedom can thrive. Maybe the inconveniences of the protocol are a feature, not a bug. Freedom is proof of work, and those who truly value it will put in the work. When we lower that barrier by making things work easier, we start inviting people in who’s value don’t align with ours, then slowly but surely this thing we built as a tool for freedom becomes co-opted and morphs into the very thing we were fighting against. I don’t want to build for the normies, I want to build for the freemen.
The only thing Zuck cares is his money. He donated 400 Million to Biden and is telling us, he had no leverage over the administration? If Harris would have won the election, he would continue censoring the shit out of us. Now he's shitting himself because of Trump and starts acting as a freedom fighter and bitcoiner. Who believes this, I have bridge to sell you. I'll never trust these fu.....
Somewhere there has to be a meme about an abusive man promising not to hit again. Nostr could be a man with no arms. “Won’t hit you again” Vs “Can’t hit you” I am no meme lord
The only digital freedom there's a clear market demand for is the Gramatik album Digital Freedom from like 12 years ago, which is free to download anyway

As long as the protocol is protected, we can have apps on top that smooth over the rough edges or not. Like how we have Bitcoin wallets for the hardcore like Zeus and Sparrow.
Your note resonates strongly with me and I'm sure it does with all of us and we need to highlight this in our daily attempts to purple pill plebs to #Nostr
The only thing I miss about FB is the marketplace to sell and buy camera gear. X was all about social conditioning and bot traffic for me
Nostr should lean on Freedom to OWNERSHIP, more than Freedom of SPEECH, is how Nostr can win. Owning your own content is a big deal, more so than freedom of speech, which is a client-dependent decision/ethos, and not even notr clients are immune from transgressing.

All I hope is that NOSTR is ready to scale massively and resist attempts at shutting it down.
Historically, "freedom" has always been a word used to manipulate and control.
Nostr does not ensure content ownership for end users … it only provides for content to NOT be owned or controlled by anyone else. The genius of this protocol is that users have choice to make use of any and all of the apps and services in a thriving and open market of independently operated products. Only by doing so can each user assure that their content is not controlled or manipulated on the network at large. Nostr is true freedom of choice, which is the only freedom that matters.
