First step on Nostr

 I have just joined this new community gathered around Nostr (this new Internet protocol) and this is quite different from every other social media I had tried before.

First the registration is super easy in one step ; choosing a nickname, once it is done a 'secret code' is generated and associated with the account, and with this Nostr code (which you shall never share with nobody) plenty of other website can be joined (and will transfer stuffs between them using relays).

This has potential to replace all the old (dying) platforms like twitter, facebook, tumblr, and many more ... because these are now filled with ads, fake news and censorship.

I am not saying Nostr is the perfect place, it is filled with bitcoiners and conspirationists, and weirdos (which is great). But it sure is refreshing. 

Anyway, you want to find me, here is my public code (that one I can share)

What is Nostr?

Nostr itself isn't an app or website, but a protocol. 

Think of it as a set of rules that allows different apps to communicate with each other in a decentralized way. It's designed for social networking and focuses on privacy and censorship resistance.

Nostter.app is a website that uses the Nostr protocol. From this website you can create a Nostr identity, post messages, and follow others.  Since Nostr is decentralized, there are  many other Nostr-based apps available.

Like Primal.net another website using the same protocol (using the same secret key), 

What is a protocol? Imagine email. Email itself is a protocol, just like Nostr. 

Different email providers like Gmail or Yahoo Mail are like the Nostter.app -  they use the email protocol to offer their email services.
