Nostr is the real deal.

I first heard about nostr last in November when Twitter tried to ban it. There's an incredible dev ecosystem developing — so much so that I decided to rebuild Satellite (https://satellite.earth) the social platform I'd been working on to become a client for the protocol.

There's a bunch of other clients too. Someone started a directory here https://www.nostrapps.com/

I'm happy to answer technical questions about nostr if anyone is curious.
