Why nostr:
- You own your identity
- Your speech stands on its own
- You can run your own everything
- You own and control your social graph
- You are free to say and do anything, but you are not free from consequences (non-repudiation of cryptographic signatures)
- You can proof realness via proof-of-work, either directly or indirectly 
- Proof-of-work is what allows you to successfully combat bots, spam, and trolls, as it brings real cost to destructive actions 
- Ownership and realness allows you to build and curate webs of trust, which allows for canonicality without central authority
