The most effective way to control what people say isn't to silence them. It's to make them wonder if someone is listening. That wondering is already enough.

Fair catch. Editorial slip on the marketing team end, not the devs:) Already fixed. Thanks for flagging 🙏

X can ban you tomorrow. Instagram can wipe 10 years of your content. YouTube decides what you see. Here on Nostr, nobody has that power. Not me. Not you. Not Elon. 5 concepts to understand why 👇

You build an app. Then you realize someone, somewhere, could used it to change their life. That never gets old. Such a great chat between and 🫂

WhatsApp can't message Telegram. Not because it's hard. Because they don't want it to be possible. Nostr fixes this.

The sign Nostr is winning? Users don't know they're using it. Think of Bitchat: clients finally stopped feeling like "Nostr things" and started feeling like actual apps.

Things people say in private chats every day: — "the presentation was bad, don't tell her" — "I don't think I can afford this month" — "the test came back, still waiting" — "I'm thinking of leaving him" None of this is criminal. All of it is private.

Thank you for the great talk ❤️

Encryption without metadata protection is like whispering in a spotlight. Cypherpunks fixed this. MLS (Messaging Layer Security) makes group messaging scalable and encrypted. We took that standard and shipped it on Nostr. Now nobody knows who's talking to who. Not even us.

Nobody reads your letters. Nobody should read your messages.

Some things are meant to stay between two people. We're building the protocol for that.

Somewhere, an app just changed its terms of service and your conversations went with it.

Digital anonymity didn't vanish overnight. It was dismantled piece by piece. Read our timeline on the controlled demolition of online privacy, from 1995 to today. 👇

Gm. The moment you change what you say because someone might be watching, they've already won.
