I hear Facebook is where the cool kids hang out
The internet is fake and gay. Make it great again
I might be too retarded to work the kyc. Better to stay here with my fellow retards
Hey you found images of what it looks like to use my computer on a daily basis, just need to add the Brave POW page, CloudFlare warning, and the new Anubis pow error page.
Hahahaha man I should’ve added the cloudlfare warning
I feel safe here because the retards embrace me ⭕️
Virgin media block screen
We are so early 🫡
Not familiar with that one
🤔…well it was more of a collective decision not to kill u😳😖🤌🏽…but ok we’ll go with embrace🫂😂😂🤣⭕️

Incredibly early. I can only imagine this is how the early Bitcoiners felt.
It's a classic lol

😂🤌🏽🫂
Yes.
The internet has been captured and it’s fucking ridiculous
Everyone hates Cloudflare lmao
Are you Italian?
Except nostr build. 😑
They like cloudflare? I’ve never had to verify with it
no need to start calling names*/*ITz ok 2 stache
They use it. Everything you upload is run through either Cloudflare's or MS's CSAM scanning.
Everything.
Wtf do you think CF and MS is doing with YOUR media?
To be fair, NB is totally up front about this. They do not hide it at all. But... I refuse to use their services except in very rare and specific cases.
.25
I just wanna make sure there is no cultural appropriation here if he’s not Italian he can’t do this

So you can only use one finger when you do this. I don’t make the rules.

Thanks for sharing
🤔…as a matter of fact yes according to my mother in law who is big into ancestry… it was a surprise to me🤷🏽♂️

The internet is being captured slowly but surely.
And I'm fine with that.
Humans let it happen, must be what they wanted.

And the cool grandmas too
Tru story
…I went to Italy last year …mostly small towns in or around the Valpolicella wine region and while driving in the small town of Negrar (one of my favs) turned the wrong way down a one way street😳…traffic was light so the first indication something was amiss was a service worker on the side of the rode looking at me and doing exactly that 😖🤦🏽♂️😂😂😂🤌🏽
Why would it be a surprise if you instinctively 🤌
Idk if they understand the consequences of letting it happen. Most people are cowards.
Not so instinctive…
@node use to use it a lil and I liked it🤷🏽♂️
Reddit had blocked VPNs early on. No worries, there's nothing worthwhile on Reddit anyway.
Those lonely grandmas

🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾
He’s like oh great another senile old man that doesn’t know what he’s doing 😂

Aye, realized gab was a failed project in regards to individual freedom a 1 to 3 months in, if I remember right (I was a young lad then)
I never got into gab but I was aware of it. This came VPN requirement came as a surprise to me.
People are weird. As soon as something hurts them, they care, otherwise they don't. A lot of people don't care about this tyranny because they don't have to deal with it. As soon as they do they will
And then it’ll be too late
Translation of all these: "We are fake and gay."

It does lack network effects.
Do the closed platforms not lack network effects?
Correct
It's a shame though, their fork of Brave called Dissenter during the Covid debacle was going to replace BAT with Bitcoin - but they stopped working on it.
Nostr is being built because people need permissionless freedom.
Bitcoin is being built because people need permissionless money.
Permission is a sign of centralization.
Centralization is a sign of authoritarianism.
Freedom is being built on decentralized protocols.
Protocol is the new method of organizing societies based on first principles.
First principles are the real and immovable laws of the universe.
And no earthly government can change the laws of the universe.
Because the universe is the body of God.
And no one can stop God.
Because God is Good.

Gab has the best response - “We do this to protect you. Unless they pay us, then screw you.”
😂
It’s the one that stood out most to me
No centralized social platforms can ever truly claim to be free-speech. It really is only NOSTR or nothing.
I actually want to do that (and a lot more) if the future permits it with current project and another's success.
It was just a matter of time before they had to bend the knee
nostr is relaying, zaps are flowing

Legendary post right here. Shows exactly the crossroads we are at right now with the whole internet.
This here.
I only came to Nostr for the censorship resistance.

Come December, we are going to see a HUGE influx of Australians. As long as enough people learn about nostr in the meantime.
I hope everyone is prepared.

Sorry, I was puking because of the image of Gab.
Now that everyone is dumber for even just seeing the Gab logo, what is going on?
Nostr.build isn't Nostr, it's an HTTP cloud storage service with "nostr" in the name.
The internet is in a bad place. Without nostr, I’d be very concerned.
So fucking dystopian
They’re all welcome here
Personally, I believe that social media itself will undergo a "hard fork". There will be the KYC fork (all legacy platforms), and the NOSTR fork (all NOSTR clients).
It's a huge part of what makes nostr nostr. It's other stuff. You also sign events with your keys. You do realise the relays (the R in nostr) are just servers, right?
Gab is trash lol
They also mirror the media to prevent it from being taken down so it’s a very important part of keeping nostr censorship resistant
Any decent CDN does that, even CF.
Damn you really know everything so cool
It's not "other stuff", it's stuff other than Nostr.
It is as much Nostr as Google Drive is.
Nostr is a protocol. Nostr.build is an image host like many, it just happens to have "Nostr" in the name.
> You do realise the relays (the R in nostr) are just servers, right?
They are Nostr servers.
Not all servers are Nostr servers. Only those that operate through the Nostr protocol are.
If a post contains an HTTPS link to an image hosted on Nostr.build and the admins at Nostr.build nuke the file, or a government nukes them, or their DNS provider nukes them, or the government nukes their DNS provider, that post now has a broken HTTPS link which links to nothing whatsoever.
That is the same level of censorship resistance that Google Drive has.
And it's not censorship resistance.
You still have a single point of failure.
It really is.
The admin pretending for being for freedom of speech but actually being more prone to censorship than the worst of "woke" assholes.
If one can access the servers with a nostr keypair, they are utilizing the nostr protocol.
Not necessarily.
Nostr keys can be used generally for asymmetric encryption and related task.
The Nostr protocol is a client/server communication protocol, as well as a data format.
Regardless, images aren't being hosted "on Nostr", in any sense, when nostr.build is used.
