Looks like I'm gonna have to stop using NOSTR. It seems that in the last month or so (roughly since I started actively posting from my travels) NOSTR has eaten up so much data that it's financially unsustainable for me.

I only operate on local 4G SIM cards when I travel and don't have access to public wifi very often - I'm not a digital nomad going from coffee shop to coffee shop and coworking space to coworking space, 95% of my time is spent somewhere in the woods or desert.

I'm terribly sorry about this, as NOSTR is my favorite platform and if I had any real enthusiasm for growth anywhere, it was here (unlike Twitter and Facebook). So if anyone happens to have any ideas on how to avoid this huge data consumption (like only using 1 app? Or just on a laptop in a browser? Or somehow remotely? Or do some magic with relays?), I'd love to get back to actively posting on NOSTR. But I'm shutting down for now, because realistically I don't have the money for more internet this month, and next time it'll be a decision between food and internet and guess what wins based on the opinions of the rest of the family :D.

So see you guys. For now...
