In this episode of Soapbox Sessions, hosts Derek Ross and Heather Larson dive deep into the world of Nostr, a decentralized way of doing everything from social media to building apps. They discuss the basics of Nostr, its significance, user experience, and the importance of decentralization in today's world where the user has very little control. The conversation explores the risks associated with legacy social media platforms, their personal journeys of discovering Nostr, and the community building that is taking place within this new ecosystem. They also touch on the future of Nostr, upcoming events you can attend, and the shift in social media dynamics. On The Soapbox Sessions, we always emphasize how Nostr serves the need for user control and privacy.
