nostr
Tim Bouma

In the legacy world, I feel like everyone is fighting for their turf on otherwise-captured platforms that are inevitably co-opted by government.

I don't get that same feeling on #nostr.

Instead, it feels like entirely new territory to try new things without permission.

That's why I am here.

Wondering if anyone else feels the same way?
