Time for some new stuff from the internet!
Many of us are fed up with the model of current social networks. As much as I find them akin to a sort of hive mind that is allowing us to share ideas through the world and without I wouldn't have the supportive community I benefit from, we're all aware of the derives of their centralized nature and that we're handlng them private data, all the while being subject to their whim. It was about time for a real alternative, not just another website nor a new app but ... a protocol! So, a base layer on top of which "clients" (apps) can be built. Unlike anything you've seen so far, nothing on Nostr will ask you for a email or a phone number and making you go through a registration process. Instead, the client generates you a private key (consider it like a masterpassword, to never, ever loose) and a public key (which is like a public identity you share), which is a very fast process. But above all, Nostr is censorship resistant; what you post there isn't under the control of any entity. If you're displeased with the client, just move to another one, all your contacts, posts and messages will come with you.
