It's SO freaking cool to be a user of *amazing* new FOSS technology WHILE it's being developed 'real time'. This just doesn't happen in "normie" software dev land. At all.

There, everyone waits until 'MegaCorp' launches their proprietary app or product. Guided by boardroom objectives, bottom lines etc.

Here?

We get to try #Nostr WITH the developers as they roll out features, native apk apps, #zaps, media, etc.

BTC hardware and software wallets *constantly* update too. ZEUS (nprofile…5fk2), Alby... and Lightning... 🤯.

And Tapsigner is interesting. And Blockstream (nprofile…6av2) Jade is so sophisticated, yet so elegantly simple.

Fountain fm, Stacker News and the old school Nostr Nests and Frog Talk, and the list goes on...!

I know I'm forgetting things. But it's all quite amazing.

The best thing about testing cutting edge software, is that it usually doesn't work, but when it does, you get this insane adrenaline rush.

And since the next step is likely to not work, it keeps you hooked for the next update to come.

Freedom tech is addictive.
