A demo where Nostr is completely invisible but crucial.
In the back end I’ve replicated the OAuth2 protocol, but with nostr. If you are aware, OAuth2 is the apex predator of authentication (delegation) protocols, used by all of the major platforms and governments. It’s centralizing by default.
Where nostr really shines is a decentralized authentication and delegation protocol (more so than a social media alternative) and it’s my aim to displace OAuth2 with nostr to make world a freer digital place.
