Live TV is so surreal… anyway, here’s a screencap of my live interview on CNN…. I got Nostr mentioned! Protocols are the future, we just need to build it.

You did change the world and no one can take that away from you. And maybe it was not your place to secure the world ! The next generation will find their path and I believe nostr will lead the way
What a weird moderator 👀 maybe it’s because I am not used to American news (or any tv news for that matter).. she also clearly doesn’t know the difference between platform and protocol, but as long as it makes a few users think and look up Nostr it’s a win !
Glad to see you on nostr. The protocol. Did twitter really have plans to abandon a centralised server and become protocol driven with decentralised relays? This is my first time hearing about it. There was atleast a decade of Twitter before Elon. Were these plans in the making for a whole decade and then blame elon for not doing it within a year? No disrespect, just honest questions here in the spirit of authentic journalism...
The algorithms! 🤣 Now that is enough of your hate speech, so sad what Nostr has become. Where do I complain to get you deplatformed?
Too bad the interviewer had no fucking idea what you were talking about for even one second
Why not using the anti twiter/musk/trump psyop propaganda to push normie to the nostr open protocol adoption? Nostr; A social network protocol that is not Musk/Trump/Zuck controled. 🤓 Of course we all know that by definition of an open protocol but not sure that most normie understand that. Just my 2 sats. 🤙

XMPP is lightweight enough to run on the tiniest device. But supports messages and voice/video calls. It is annoying with multiple devices on the same XMPP address - logs are split/duplicated between devices, and it is unclear which device will notify you of a new message or call. I was on twitter through XMPP until they cut off anyone without a twitter account. Facebook was the same thing. They talked a protocol driven game ("like email"), then cut me off. Matrix is really good at the message store on server - but we're talking 2G+ ram VM for the server and 40g+ disk.
I wouldn't expect the zealous elevated-eyebrow condescension to be radiated at a visibly gay man. Is it arrogance or concealment of incompetence? I can't tell.

Ya seemed like she had zero time to prepare and didn’t know what questions she was even asking
Wow, great interview, @rabble! Liked how you described early Twitter with Implementierung those ideas coming from Users but also the challenges like hate speech. And I wasn‘t aware you were one of the first people on @jack team. Go #Nostr! 💪🏻
I am not a tech guy, haven‘t heard of XMPP before but it sounds really good, lightweight and flexible, also usable for Voice and Video posts. Do you think #Nostr is the better protocoll in the end though? Why? Curious…
Thanks for clarifying. Is CMPP being focused the reason why it didn‘t work for Twitter? Was Nostr developed afterwards then, not available back then?
And then said that blue sky was their vision until elon took over lmao not exactly a nostr plug
Hi rabble 😉🤟🏴‍☠️ That’s awesome! Getting Nostr mentioned on a mainstream platform like CNN is a big win for the protocol. You’re absolutely right protocols are the future, and it’s up to us to keep building and decentralizing. The more awareness we create, the closer we get to a truly open internet.

"twitter was supposed to migrate to bluesky but that didn't happen because elon" is that a nostr pitch?

This anchor’s whole job is to read words off a screen, and she is absolutely atrocious at it.
You did a great job! And it looks like she set you up perfectly to shine a little light in #Nostr So kudos for crushing a tee’d up shot. Sometimes those are actually the hardest 🤙
Idk I think she tried to riff off of his response at one point, just not good at it
