 New users of nostr (or anyone), what questions do you have about nostr? 
 I just started my own relay with planet9. 
 Showing events in the logs… 
 Somehow I thought you meant Plan9 (of Bell Labs fame). 😄 That would be a riot. 
 Start9 woops. 
 Never heard of them until just now. I found their website: cool stuffs. 
 When will it support Black Americans 🇺🇸 
 What do you have in mind?

 It supports black americans with an ad free and permissionless communications protocol that cannot be censored. 
 What's a #penisbutter? 
 that’s where you draw penises in slabs of butter 
 How do you use the DM in nostr?  Is it the email? 
 You should have a dm tab which works like any other social media. On profiles click the dm button and that’ll open up a dm dialog. 

Just keep in mind people can see who you dm, but not the contents of the message. It sucks but that’s where we are now. 
 if someone first created a nostr account through them, would using something like the free Proton VPN and/or TOR be sufficient security for connecting a Bitcoin wallet or is it infinitely more complicated than that? 
 also, are there recommended apps for cleaning metadata from images before uploading them? 
 Where can I find the joke/history about the nostrich mascot?
