I set up a brand new account on X yesterday and it was immediately locked lmfao

Apparently the #Reticulum subreddit bans any discussion of making a discord server to chat on. Which is hilarious on so many levels. - Matrix was designed to be a Mossad metadata sponge. To add insult to injury, the UX is also dogshit. - They’re already using Reddit, another literal Mossad operation, except this time centralized. - Discord is precisely how Meshtastic got popular to begin with.

There’s something very sick about big creators pushing for “no algorithms” (looking at you, Louis Rossmann).

Deltachat messages say “I am an e-mail”, and any government that blocked all e-mails would abruptly have serious problems.

Is there goodreads or letterboxd on Nostr yet? Just include TMDB (the movie database) or Open Library db for connecting the actual book or movie data to posts.

Has anyone made a relay with a whitelist based on proven physical locations (by mailing auth codes to real addresses)? @rabble some group was considering that right?
