Hi

I am looking for projects of links agregators or micro blogs, that don’t rely on centralized servers and especially no mods. I’ve had it with mod’s power trips. and how personal biases affect heavy moderation.

I want to try something with no governance, maybe p2p, and with better transparency than lemmy.

    Do you need to pay for those relays, or register with those relays like you to on lemmy to be able to post ?

    can you move your account from one relay to another ?

    Are ther modded communities or subreddits like they are on lemmy ?

    Do you need an app to be constantly connected in the background like briar messenger or all content is hosted on the relays?

      As far as I can tell they’re all free. I don’t the service myself, though. You can (should) add multiple relays to whatever app you use to use the protocol to the fullest.

      The only account you have is the key and metadata stored on your device is my understanding. You can use any account with any relay and create as many as you need. All you need to sign in is your private key. Enter that into any nostr app connected to any nostr relay(s) and you’re good to go.

      They don’t do communities last time I checked, it’s more of a Twitter alternative. The “shouting into the void” social media lends itself much better to moderation free environments than any attempts at discussion forums.
