Oddbean new post about login | logout For those that are new to Nostr, hello! What’s cool about it is that Nostr it is an open source protocol. It is not a centralized company, but rather is a protocol that individuals and companies can build upon. This means that you can use many different applications to access it, or even build your own. And it means that there is no central authority that can take down posts or delete accounts; there are different servers operated by different entities that are storing the data. And there is no central algorithm for determining what posts people see or don’t see. You can hook up a bitcoin lightning wallet to send and receive tips (“zaps”) on posts. Nostr itself is not a blockchain or crypto and has no token, but the Bitcoin blockchain does complement it well via zaps. Nostr is still relatively small, and a bit rough around the edges. But the community here is great, and familiarizing yourself with the technology and concept is useful in a world of centralized social media. It is a new method of decentralization that balances various trade-offs in a novel way, and the protocol can be used for a lot more than just social media. Welcome!
Hello, thanks. I love your book.
This is AI generated or lyn is a cyberborg
The TikTok bill is a flank attack on Twitter and our only hope might be Nostr! Very cool to see you here!
I have a better more concise way to put it: For those that are new to Nostr, hello! What’s cool about it is that Nostr has Lyn. That's it, that's all you need to get on board.

Nostr Lyn is Shit Posting Lyn. And we are here for it!!
Just getting settled here and getting familiar with hooking up Lightning apps. Sure is rough around the edges, even for someone who's got some experience since before. But I'm sure it'll improve a lot. Overall? It's speedy, discoverable, fun posters and pretty handsome regardless of provider or app you start out with. A great beginning!
This is way more user friendly than I thought it would be. Amazing.
Watching @LynAlden speak about #Nostr encouraged me to sign up! Thanks LA! 🌈
Awesome! What was the #1 thing she talked about that resonated with you?
I don't want to misattribute because I don't think these posts can be deleted 😄 but in summary, Lynn has mentioned Nostr/Lightning many times in the countless interviews I've watched since 2021 bull run. I figured, after the last mention at Atlantis, it was time I finally figured out what this "nostr" and "lighting" thing was all about. So far, so good! 🤠
Make sure to follow @LynAlden right away. Brilliant she is #introductions #plebchain nostr:nevent1qqs8el5lc8m049632ran5mv8h37ucw5mtsmtzewp26gu4uzsc9yhjcgpzdmhxue69uhk7enxvd5xz6tw9ec82c30qgsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncrqsqqqqqpgjk5v5

I've been using NOSTR for a few days and I'm impressed. The people and the knowledge shared by them are invaluable. Respect to all Nostronauts.
Glad you’re enjoying it! What made you want to check it out?
The appeal of NOSTR lies in its commitment to decentralization, anonymity, and privacy. Protocols such as Bitcoin, TOR, and Nostr represent a promising direction. Although I'm somewhat new to the social media landscape, I'm eagerly learning more here.
Awesome! Consider filling out a new user survey for Nostr so we can keep making the experience better. I just posted about it but here's the direct link: https://tally.so/r/wLbKAO
Thanks Lyn. I feel like NOSTR will become HUUUGE when they really crack down on speech near the election.
Hello fellow rebel capitalists, hope you are all well!!!
Thanks Lyn! It feels great to see decentralization materializing beyond money, now socially🙏 On other potential use cases though, I'm curious as to what's in the oven that maybe you could also share? (e.g. conference calls, password managers, document storage, app stores, or even operating systems?) The decentralized future is bright!
... and there is no delete button.... REALLY!
Really... so be mindful of what you say and stay humble 😊🙏🏼
Hi Lyn, I do now return to Nostr after some time of absence. Reason is the new Digital Service Act of the European Union. Here an explainer video for German newbies on Nostr: https://youtu.be/aZMhw9QfJaQ
This is another reason why I am back on Nostr. I fear that X will be banned next like Kim describes it here: Kim Dotcom @KimDotcom The TikTok ban is not about national security. It’s about closing a channel that the Deep State can’t control because it isn’t owned by one of their big tech puppets. You find truth on TikTok that has long been banned on Facebook and Google. That’s why it has to go and X is next. https://twitter.com/KimDotcom/status/1768047651701096777
Willkommen zurück. 🙂 Ich bin hier vor ein paar Tagen erst angekommen, dank des Werbens für #nostr auf der #BitcoinAtlantis Konferenz.
Danke. Ja Bitcoin führt meist auch zu Nostr. So war auch mein Weg.
loved your book Lyn 🔥

And read Broken Money!
What wallet should I add here? Anything for Android?
Use Strike wallet.
Great synopsis of Nostr !
Seeing my friends complain about tik tok makes this post resonate more.
As usual, Lyn says it perfectly!
heyyy, I'm completely new to this and I don't even know how to get a lightning account 😅
Use Primal.net It is all built in
I think I managed to do it, need to try and do some transactions for the first time. Thank you for your reply, I would zap you but need to get sat first 😅
It’s as easy as that!
Yea I got it! 😁 How do I zap them back tho? Need to buy?

Hey Lyn. Good to hear your POV ref Nostr. As a new pleb myself I'm happy to focus most of my energy on nostr as I'm so deep in crypto and the right to have decentralisation in our monetary system. Glad to have people like yourself in this space and promoting the industry.
Cheers 🥂

Do you need to pay for a transaction to open a LN channel and access a LN wallet?
If you use a custodial wallet there are no fees (WOS, Blink) If you want to use a non-custodial wallet, some fees will incur (Phoenix).

This feels like the internet and 1990 all over again. Really bullish on Nostr and all of its potential.
Primer #nostr
On centralized social media, they harvest your time and attention, then sell your data to third parties — essentially, you are the product. On Nostr, you are a crew member aboard the Nebuchadnezzar. Welcome 🫡

Protocols are the valuable things for everyone in the long term.
we need a hashtag to use when something seems written by ai assist or a bot & the poster did not specify. like how champagne is just from champagne, france and the rest is called something else so we get people identifying when they use it. i am all for using it but think the public should know. #botpost or #aipost or #promptpost
Thanks for the explanation. As a blockchain noob: What I can’t wrap my head around: if servers/relays are non-central and people can see stuff in different relays: how am I able to explore / search things that happen on different relays where I am „not on“ and how is somebody able to share something from a relay that I am not on. also: who owns the different relays and how are they able to keep those relays up (how do they make money?) . Thx for anyone patient enough to explain 😊
