 I'm not sure how zap.stream works l but AFAICS your self-hosted Owncast instance is more decentralised and sovereign.

While my laptop was still working I looked in the network monitor in my browser and IIRC saw that it just loads your stream.mxtthxw.art URL. But with the added disadvantage that you don't own the zap.stream domain or host the servers.

There's what looks like a Nostr address in the URL. So maybe it links to a Nostr event. But I don't have any way of getting it directly from a relay right now, as my laptop is broke and I don't know of any Android apps for it. 
 Wtf is a star chain?

 If Kanye West was in charge he would’ve told Netanyahu to gfy ages ago.

 Sending someone a meaningless amount of BTC lets say via a zap on NOSTR sure that’s fine .. but... 
 Just use XMR 
 This is why a lot of people point out that BTC isn't very useful as a medium of exchange and therefore is not, as it says in the whitepaper, "p2p electronic cash".

Better might be a good stablecoin that doesn't have a central point of control like USDT and USDC. Something like DAI AFAICT.

One could even possibly make a version pegged to the price of a useful commodity rather than a fiat currency.

 Your Owncast isn't broadcasting either. I never seem to catch you on your streams. 
 If something good is to come out of the riots, maybe after time they’ll be more of a push back ... 
 Were peaceful protesters really arrested as well as rioters? That's concerning if so.
Do you have details? 
 Nostr is a really shitty social media protocol. It's a shame it's the best one for user freedom and autonomy. 
 This is all very well and good if your version of freedom doesn't allow for communities and/or admins to make their own rules on their own servers. https://nostpic.com/media/4c648e194666818153c55e7f71161bb7ecbbec5056ac4418503d7bfefeeafa72/f770dab429a48b90717adeffe0c4c324bc4b44dc4fb9da70e869c7c4d6ac0dac.webp

 Half the accounts in the morning are Nostr, but at night it's all fedibros. 
 Define "morning" and "night". In which timezone?
