#1 🧠 Quotes of the Week @Tanja “Some say Nostr is dead. I say I’ve never felt more alive here. Because I love it, I believe in it, and it’s simply healthier for my mind and soul.” @Contra “Nostr users are not fighting anyone. They are simply building somewhere else. No meetings with regulators. No term sheets with venture capitalists who want board seats. No compromises with platforms that will change the rules mid game.” @Space Dog “We are the most powerful and greatest Freedom protocol on the internet, by far.
