 A WILD @P APPEARS!
Hey finpel. 
It costs {one cheap VPS} or a spare computer at home. Not unlike an Urbit planet.  
 Interesting. I'd love to see Nostr pick up some traction, but I'd be equally pleased (if not more so) to see Urbit-based alternatives do well. 
 Nice think about Nostr is it is entirely permissionless. I've gotten really blackpilled on the Urbit naming/network system lately. It goes against my cypherpunk instincts. 
That said, I'm excited to hear about the plans to rip out Azimuth as a standalone protocol. Urbit without Azimuth (and without Ames) is closer to where we are headed with Pallas https://github.com/operating-function/pallas
