what makes something freedom tech? i don't think anyone will call mastodon freedom tech, so what is unique about nostr and bitcoin, and potentially others?

Reticulum is great and I wish more nostriches would take a look at it.
I have seen many people wonder if nostr can truly be decentralized if the underlying IP based Internet depends on ICANN and other central orgs. Reticulum offers a very elegant solution

2024 was horrible. 2025 is going great so far. Never felt more alive.
@verbiricha heya fund down?
Other than ZBD Social (which shut down already?), anyone else making a custodial social network using nostr?
anyone working on any social nsec recovery mechanism?
Should I create a new browser by forking Firefox or Chromium? The core idea is to provide users with a key pair that syncs existing browser data like saved passwords, browsing history, and open tabs
This would allow us to directly integrate NIP-07 (nostr.window) capabilities into the browser.We could also include a Bitcoin (Lightning) wallet, even if it's just interfacing with users' existing wallets. From there, we can continue adding key-based features that users need, be it Pkarr DNS resolution, Web5 support, and Pubky integration
We could also fork Proton Drive + Docs + Calendar, but replace email + password authentication to their servers with key-based E2EE user generated data. Some private communications tool could also be built directly into the browser using something like the protocols used by SimpleX
I believe that once we get private keys into the hands of many users, it won't matter which protocol(s) ultimately succeed - we'll already be on the right path and will have taken the crucial first steps
Tell me how dumb this idea is
