Instagram qnd other centralised soxial media platforms, don’t just track surface-level interactions like likes or comments. Through their patented technologies, they construct a detailed behavioral profile by analyzing every aspect of your activity—what you watch, how long you watch, what you skip, and who you engage with. They even track the themes or visual styles that capture your attention. This results in a digital representation of you, designed to predict and serve content that keeps you engaged, creating an echo chamber tailored to your habits. You’re not merely scrolling; you’re being observed and influenced. Nostr, on the other hand, offers a fundamentally different approach to social media. Built on a decentralized protocol, it eliminates algorithms, behavioral tracking, and echo chambers. Instead, it empowers users with full control over their data and content. While individual clients on Nostr could introduce algorithms, the decentralized nature ensures you’re free to choose alternatives without interference or manipulation. It’s a platform where your digital experience is determined by you, not by hidden systems or middlemen. #InstagramAlgorithm #AI #EchoChamber #Decentralization #SocialMedia #Nostr
Bitcoin is all about #grass root adoption and initiatives. I am glad to have contributed to that through organising a local #Bitcoin #meetup in Limassol. Made a presentation named "Why Bitcoin" where I shared my views as to how Bitcoin benefits th Environment, the Economy, Society and as a conclusion the Individual. Can't wait for the next one!⚡ #plebchain #events #education
Hear me out, I've been a supporter of sats and on top of liking it, I've gotten used to it. With an open mind, I propose we instead of Sats, we use "Oshis" (Oshi). With calling Bitcoin denominations oshis, we can use it as a verb (for example: oshi me, I oshied you) In Japanese it also means "push" or "press" which is fitting imo. Interact with this post and let me know your thoughts! ⚡
From now on, every time I'm about to make a decent purchase, I'll first convert the amount into BTC/ sats Most sobering to say the least View quoted note →
