Life as a Citizen of the United Kingdom:

I had a thought about #Nostr which I shall explain with the help of an example. I recently went to visit the Khajuraho Group of Temples located in the city of Khajuraho in India. There is technically not just one group of temples, there are 3 groups across the city but the earliest of these temples were built around 950 AD while most were built before 1192 AD. The story behind these temples is that despite the Hindu King Prithviraja III losing the Second Battle of Tarain in 1192 AD and Khajuraho’s local rulers (Chandela Dynasty) crumbling soon after by the year 1205 AD… there was nothing that stopped the invaders from destroying their temples but Hindus kept these temples alive and kicking for as long as they could so the future generations could keep experiencing the glory, history, architecture and culture that these temples act as a living proof of. As a Hindu, even for me it was mesmerising to see the architecture that formed our culture. I have attached the images of the temples, the walls and the zoomed in photos of the intricate carvings on their walls. On this visit is when I understood that when the legacy media starts to force users to upload their IDs and suppress the free-speech of the users. #Nostr will still be here. WE will STILL be here - Protecting Nostr like a temple of free speech. #FreeSpeech #MoreThanProtocol

Hello #nostriches. On this edition of #asknostr I wanted to ask how to get in touch with the community of Nostr Developers? My reason for seeking help: I am trying to make an Decentralised invoicing app for freelancers who wish to accept payments for their effort in #bitcoin I would like my Nostr Client to be able to handle invoice creation, then sending the invoice as a Nostr DM or as a PDF that contains a Bolt11 or LNURL-Pay QR code which has the amount baked in. The nostriches have to connect their wallets via NIP-47 (NWC) so they will receive their sats directly in their wallets! Since I am new to Nostr I wanted to have a conversation with people who are more experienced with building Nostr Clients in the past on how you build this stuff. Any help or guidance towards finding a place where the community gathers is appreciated.

I have left @primal and moved to @Damus after I learnt of the censorship controversy. Regardless of if the app actually censors or not, I have experienced the Primal App to be quite broken in the sense that sometimes I only get a blank flat screen with no loading icon and no elements rendered. Damus - I have heard is comparatively more bug-free.

Why is #windows such a bitch-ass stupid OS telling me constantly about what I can and cannot download on the PC that I bought and paid for? If I say I want to download it then I want to download it. As simple as that.

Inspired by @paul keating's beginner’s guide to Nostr… I decided to make my own #introductions post as he guided in his post. So I discovered #nostr as a way for achieving greater privacy and avoid censorship when I was going on a spree of leaving conventional social media which gathers a lot of user data - a lot more than i would prefer. In fact, it was @jack who introduced me to the platform by a video in which he was giving a presentation of somekind. It sounded like a great idea to me to use bitcoin since i had some bitcoin on me at the time. Although I have used most of it on paying for my VPN subscription but I am sure I will keep zapping here and keep asking questions since I am quite new to Nostr, Crypto and Blockchain. Overall I have been liking my stay on the Nostr Protocol & @primal. Hopefully Nostr is one of those good things that neither ever come to an end nor ever change… Here’s to Nostr ☕️ (I do not drink alcohol 😜) PS - you can read Paul’s article here:

Why not compare with RetoSwap? Sorry I am new to crypto…

I have been in this space for a few months and all I can say is that there is a cost to freedom and I would rather pay it with crypto😜 #nostr #bitcoin #new
