What’s that AI learning program your son is using? I just caught up on your pod with @walker and @HODL and you mentioned your son is learning coding via AI or something. Sounded dope!
expressing yourself freely without worrying about the consequences of your words, that's what we call true freedom. Every free person expresses themselves as they want and when they want without any constraints. Yet another reason why I love Nostr.

Agreed. It feels strange. But I’m getting the feeling to say what you want automatically “makes” a terrorist.
Akshually, reeee-laaay operators can censor you, but most choose not to and you can choose a different relay.

It is truly mind blowing how cheap and easy communication has become over the last 40 years. When I was a kid, if you wanted to communicate with anyone that lived more than 30 miles from you, you either drove there, wrote them a letter and waited a week for their response or paid 25 cents a minute for a long distance call.

Perhaps, but censored platforms and rules by government decree only put pedos into more power…

on Amethyst, you will be censored by default if many people report you for wrong think nostr isnt safe from censorship

Loved that chat with AH and Walker. It helps me confirm I’m not the only lunatic retard in the world.

Uncensorable free speech and uncensorable fuck you money. Quite the pair.
People have been publishing whatever they want to the whole world as long as they've been able to create a website. This capability not some recent development. NOSTR just makes that same freedom available in a social media format, liberating plebs from web 2.0 big tech capture

Not only that, but if people want to support you then they can fund you directly vs hoping you don’t piss off any moderators or advertisers.

you missed out on the last 20-30 years of Tech if you think this is new and exciting
Basically this: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬, ‭3‬-‭5‬ ‭NIV‬‬

You say what you want, everyone else decides whether to pay attention or exclude from their personal feed. Sounds wonderful to me.

Freedom of speech - this is the only place where I can say anything. Only this one.
1. separation of the church and the state -> science 2. separation of the money and the state -> bitcoin 3. separation of the speech and the state -> nostr i guess fuck the state

Throughout history, important change has never come from the masses anyway. Only from a small percentage of determined individuals.
Ah but what is truth? Probably also the most “truthy” time in history and yet nobody agrees on what the truth is 🙈.

So, I'm new to this Nostr thing, and I'm wondering how "banning" works on here (or does it?) Because I thought this was supposed to be a free-speech, uncensorable platform, yet here on Primal app I see a report option. What does that do? Seems sus.
us, allowing for personal growth while still embracing the challenges that life presents. We navigate through ups and downs, learning from each experience and emerging stronger.

It is tough responsibility to hosting self relay as people has right to report ( if that options available) then the administrator to decide .. whether to act based on the report or based on his self conscious. Most of the time , they go to censor or delete the post as to show to the people that reported that he/ she as own the relay take responsibility and serious if some people reporting things . Regardless if the post it self is not bother anyone else except the one that reported .
Time to post this on the big social media platforms. VPNs appear to be doing very well in the UK at the moment.
Wake up NEO. Don’t complain about or attempt to improve the system from within the system (cheers @Jeff Booth ). Nostr growth may have been slower than expected, but when people are pushed toward a decentralised system that will help them protect their own safety, surely adoption will start to 📈 View quoted note →
