just jailbroke my paper white 3 last weekend. Was relatively simple. Great for older models with no Android running on it. Breathed new life into it.

I really really want to like nostr. I think the protocol is great and enjoy the premise. I’ve given it a fair shake I think.
But wow, the fact that Bitcoin is basically embedded into the system really sucks. It’s just the whole vibe there. It could have JUST been a new social media platform but NOPE, crypto killed it.
You had a whole awesome platform built on cryptography but you killed it with cryptocurrency.

biggest difference I see going from Instagram to #pixelfed is the TALENT! so used to the ads and filters and AI on insta that I forgot what real photographers and artists were
