What's trending on Nostr over the last 24 hours?
I can say whatever I fucking want to and no one can stop me, and anyone, anywhere in the world can read it unfiltered and unmediated by corporations, institutions, or governments.

People really don’t understand that this is the first time in human history this is really possible and how big of a deal it really is.

From this alone, another world becomes possible. One where the radical power of truth-speaking electrifies itself as the spark that initiates real thought and the possibilities that entails.
Thats a big HELL NO from we the people Mr President.

The people born between 1975 and 1995 are the most special generation of all time, and here's why:

They were born between two generations: one before the internet and before technology took control, and the following generation.

The generation before 1985 was old-school and believed in hard, consistent work, while the next generation believes in smart work.

This generation has seen it all: radio, television, Mario Bros, Nokia, cassettes, VHS, DVDs, Nintendo, PS4, video stores, Netflix, Snapchat, and virtual reality.

This is the generation that knows tradition and questions and judges based on reasoning. The previous generation didn’t ask questions, and the next one doesn’t know tradition.

The bridge between the industrial era and the internet age, they understand both sides based on experience. This generation should be leading everything. The older generation doesn’t understand what’s happening now, and the next generation doesn’t know where what they have comes from.

Thank God for Nostr.
Snowden deserves a pardon.

Exposing crimes is not a crime. It is a heroic service to the American people.

If anything, he should be given the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
If I remember correctly they contacted me and I had a call with a guy from Twitter where he told me Bluesky's goals were to build a protocol for which Twitter could become a client in the future, to which I said Nostr was a perfect match, then he asked me if I would consider becoming the lead Bluesky person they would pick for leading the effort, and I said ok but asked if it would be acceptable if I just used Nostr as it was as "the Bluesky" without considering the other proposals and he didn't know what to say.

Then he put me in a secret group chat with some other people including SSB people, Mastodon people, the GUN guy and people from a bunch of useless IPFS projects. Supposedly the group was gathered to work together in creating this Bluesky protocol, but I read the entire conversation and it was 100% people just shilling their own projects, so I talked a little about Nostr and the first feedback I got was: "how do we ban people? it looks like it would be very hard to ban", so I said that was the idea and the conversation ended. Maybe Jay Graber was in this chat, but I don't remember reading any messages from her.

Some time after that supposedly this group produced a "report" containing all decentralized protocols in existence and a comparison between them, but it didn't include Nostr. I think the group didn't produce anything and this was likely a solo effort from Jay. The group continued its useless, sparse conversation and Bluesky the company was created through some other means of communication.

Spain's PM Pedro Sánchez:

"I propose putting an end to anonymity on social media."

“That is why I believe we must push forward the principle of psuedonimity as the functioning element of social media and force all these platforms to link every user account to an European digital identity wallet.”
Woke up, realized I forgot to take out the trash last night.

But the trash guy is late. Not taken yet. Usually he comes super early. So I put the trash out and he comes like five minutes later.

Sometimes it’s the little wins that make your day. GM.
