I created an npub for him and will be passing it down once he’s old enough to understand the power of censorship resistant speech (so like 3 or 4 years old).

jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s) Highlighting the importance of Nostr, Will shares a screenshot showing that news outlet Diario El Salvador’s Instagram profile and content is inaccessible in Canada due to the Canadian government’s pro-censorship policies.
Canada forces companies to censor news unless it’s from pre-approved sources, apparently that includes entire countries.
This started happening when there was a surge of non-government funded media which was getting more attention and saying not so nice things about trudeau.
His ideas are so bad he has to give billions of printed and stolen dollars from the pre-approved CBC just so they can say how awesome he is. It’s literally their job to say nice things about him otherwise they would lose funding.
This country is a clown show.
This is why we need nostr.

reya (npub1zfs…w445) discusses current and ongoing work on Lume.
Yo, I've spent all weekend to turn Lume into monorepo. It help me manage all parts and scale up easily.
I'm also finish the Ark Library, which help user build custom column for Lume. This is my first time building this kind of library, so I need more time to carefully test, it not released in v3, but v4 instead.
My vision for Lume is highly extensible. User can build their column (widget) and share it with other users. You don't like default theme, you can build custom theme and share it with other user too.
I still brainstorm about Lume Store where user can publish their widgets or themes, but maybe it will based on NIP-94
Sadly look like I can't release v3 before year end, still have much work to do. But I will try release it in the first week of new year.

tyiu (npub1yau…vjmf) shares his reflection on a year's worth of Nostr, the purpose it brings and how quickly development went.
One year ago, I discovered #Nostr and it’s been a life changing journey ever since. Met so many incredible human beings online and in-person from all over the world who value ideas of not just decentralization and anti-censorship, but also building communities, technology, and a whole myriad of other interests.
Nostr has given me a new purpose that I had not known before. Within two days of the discovery, I submitted my first pull request to Damus, which felt exhilarating to contribute to open source freedom tech that jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s) started. A month later, Damus became the first ever multilingual Nostr client, supporting English and Spanish with help from ⚡₿it₿y₿it⚡ (npub1luh…q903) (and now in 26 languages thanks to our ~50 other translators), and the first Nostr client to integrate automatic machine translated notes into the reader’s preferred language, unlocking further global adoption, social networking, and publishing on this protocol as other clients quickly did the same. Half a year in, Nostr SDK for Apple Platforms kicked off with montzstar (npub1qlk…yayc) and klabo (npub19a8…2ckt) with a boost from OpenSats (npub10pe…n34f) with the goal was enabling developers to build Nostr clients on iOS, macOS, and other Apple platforms quicker and easier with this library.
We have a vast choice of clients and relays now built by talented builders and supported by this amazing community, that fulfill a whole bunch of use cases, and there’s so much more to do. I’m excited to see what we do in the next year.
I’m thankful for you all. Happy holidays, everyone!
shawn (npub1clk…pup9) reminds everyone that despite any compatibility “features” Threads/Meta privacy practices are “incompatible with freedom.”
We interrupt these tidings of joy, in light of recent cheerleading for Threads’ purported embrace of interoperability, to remind you that Threads is a hyper-efficient piece spyware masquerading as social media.—--------------------------
Meta and everything they produce are incompatible with freedom. Full stop.
