 The more I use NOSTR, the more convinced I am that, rumble, elon musk’s twitter/x, parlor etc etc are are just temporary band aids on the problem of government censorship. NOSTR seems to be an actual solution to the problem, with no centralized entity for governments to pressure for censorship compliance.
