**Nostr: A New Era of Decentralization and Free Speech in Social Media**
There is no CEO. There are no central servers. No single point of failure.
The decentralization of #Nostr is multifaceted, allowing posts to be transmitted through relays operated by diverse users, while also enabling users to select from a variety of clients (apps) to connect to the network.
Anyone can run a relay without needing permission, and similarly, anyone can develop a client to connect to the network.
This open-sourced architecture ensures the highest level of free speech by preventing any single entity from controlling the flow of information.
Thus there is a dual aspect to Nostr's decentralization —relationships and customers— and underlines the implications for freedom of expression.
