Oddbean new post about login | logout Everybody talks about how we should get more diverse and interesting content on to Nostr. We’re working with @Global Sports Central to cover the Olympics! nostr:note1fzuk90qeglqyk3898t94fvly5xj9d4gw6efshax259pf0wv8j3vswpgcz6 We’ve created special relay for the @Global Sports Central coverage of the Olympics. It’s an experiment with topical paid relays. You can get some of the coverage for free on Nostr and pay with zaps. Or you can pay @Global Sports Central and get access to the full feed of exclusive coverage. I am increasingly interested in the way Nostr can be used for sports coverage and community. It’s a community which needs the real time public conversation that exists on Twitter, that’s why they haven’t moved off to one of the alt platforms I think. What’s more, it’s a community that has some very real censorship issues which are focused on copyright and region blocking. There’s a whole world of live sports streaming which is constantly facing shutdown due to broadcasters trying to control their content.
It's a honor to be part of it
A monoculture of thought stifles innovation and breeds stagnation. It is in the friction between differing perspectives that new insights are forged, weaknesses exposed, and solutions refined. Sport unites, transcends borders, and fosters competition - values that mirror Nostr's decentralized spirit.
i love the idea of this ... however, more than any time in the past i feel the olympics will be a smoke screen for some major maneuver on the part of the maniacs trying to take over. look over here whilst i do this over here -oldest magicians trick in the book. enjoy but be alert ps - i hope i am wrong and the athletes and the world get to enjoy humanity exhibiting true excellence. sportmanship, achievement, unity ....
