 Session and Nostr both:

1. Use static, locally generated, public-private encryption keypairs
2. Connect to public nodes/relays to hold messages
3. Identity is disconnected from location or government domains
4. Hard to censor individuals.
5. Don’t rotate keys, but…
Session lets you assign your blockchain name to a new keypair manually if your private key is compromised.  This is like “Nostr with an undo button”.

Session is marketed as privacy, but its true strength is censorship resistance.  Since you can’t stop an anonymous entity that isn’t tied to any physical location or even any particular private encryption key.

Nostr is marketed as censorship resistance, but its true strength is privacy.  Because it allows anonymous entities to establish verifiable business reputations in the public space.  This is the foundation for trust without government IDs.

The only difference is on Nostr, the sender picks the relays.  While as on Session, the receiver's nodes are randomly assigned.
And I beg you realize, that fighting over which keys or coins only weakens and divides us.
When the only true side, is the side of freedom.

 Why not use Jami? If session stops to run these nodes, the network goes bye bye 
 Hello, thanks for your time.
We're looking to use Session's network to hide and change the the location of the sender upon discovery of the server.  Jami is peer to peer, so ties encryption keys to a given device.  Yes it's true that Session depends on its network, but the same can be said for Nostr.
