#24 What is NOSTR? Decentralized social media and how it connects to your worldview. | Ep. 24 w/ HODLBOD
What is NOSTR, really? In this episode, I sit down with NOSTR developer, Jon (aka HODLBOD, to explore not just the nuts and bolts of this decentralized social protocol — but the why behind it.We go beyond the tech to ask big questions:
🔍 How does technology shape the way we think, remember, and connect?
🧠 Can decentralization offer more than free speech — can it restore meaning?
📱 Is the architecture of Big Tech silently forming your worldview?
⚡ What role does memory, faith, and truth play in our digital future?This is a wide-ranging, deeply human conversation about NOSTR, censorship resistance, Bitcoin, and how the tools we use either fragment us — or set us free.Whether you're a developer, a seeker, or just someone questioning the system, this one's for you.🔗
Don't just scroll — reflect, rethink, and reconnect.
