Nostr does not stand alone as an open protocol. It is not a silo. It has always been an open network. Its foundational principles are a core strength, drawing-in people whom understand and appreciate them: Freedom tech lovers.
Those who understand the ethical principles behind bitcoin, encryption, private communication, decentralized identity, self-sovereignty... appreciate nostr's core of freedom of expression with choice and control back in the hands of the individual. #protocolsoverplatforms
jack (npub1sg6…f63m) brought up a good point during Nostrasia's closing remarks; as we look beyond #Nostrasia, nostr.world conferences can encompass more than nostr...diving deeper into a #freedom foundation. To look beyond the Nostr can mean strengthening and forging new community bonds while taking in a 360 view of freedom and the freedom technologies surrounding it. We may discover new avenues for these technologies to interact and support each other, while empowering people across the globe. We can reimagine what it means to be free.
Nostr's already shaping new ways of freeing content creators, interacting with the bitcoin network through zaps. Private communication developers, like simplex (npub1exv…d828) are looking into ways of extending each other's network effects by adding value to people’s communication layers. By bridging different technologies with overlapping values and principles, can we help make a stronger support net for freedom?
Human beings have fought for their freedom throughout history. As our world evolves, the freedoms we need evolve with us. Technology has opened new doors to individual empowerment, but technology is a tool, guided by the hands of its creators. Technology can be used to free and empower people, but it can also give power to a few who exercise centralized control, often through unethical practices.

To be free 2:
HODL our keys

deplatforming yet able to mute

algorithms without choice
