I think that&#39;s in part why people enjoy <a href="/no-solutions">long-form conversations</a>, or the unhinged stuff that kids will say from time to time. You can&#39;t self-censor for three hours straight, and kids haven&#39;t developed the ability to self-censor in the first place.</p> <p>The current world is a filtered world. There are certain things that are kosher when it comes to evening news, and other things that are kosher when it comes to what&#39;s being discussed on X (what used to be twitter), and YouTube, and all these other platforms.</p> <p>On the one hand it&#39;s the Overton window and various political agendas, on the other hand it&#39;s &#34;the algorithm&#34; (and again, various political agendas. Mixed in with business interests and other stuff, but hey, there&#39;s hardly any difference between business and politics these days, so: potato, potahto.)</p> <p>The algorithm.</p> <p>Everyone is catering to &#34;the algorithm.&#34;</p> <p>Algorithms are useful, no doubt about it. What they are not is an end-all and be-all thing that can tell you what to think about, what to care about.</p> <p>The hyper-optimized algo feeds we find ourselves in are pretending to show us what is relevant, but they are not optimized for us, they are optimized <em>against</em> us. Our nervous system is the training data, our ego and our vices are the knobs to tweak and levers to pull.</p> <p>Even worse: &#34;the algorithm&#34; creates audience capture without much of an audience. It creates self-censorship and a chilling effect of ungodly proportions, since everyone is trying to satisfy &#34;the algorithm&#34; instead of satisfying their soul.</p> <p>What a soulless world we&#39;ve created. And to what end? Reach? Influence? Daily active users, which, of course, is just a different word for addiction?</p> <p>I can&#39;t help but think of the letter that Kurt Vonnegut wrote to the kids of Xavier High School a mere 20 years ago:</p> <blockquote> <p>Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience <em>becoming</em>, to find out what&#39;s inside you, <em>to make your soul grow</em>.</p> <p>—<a href="https://njump.to/nevent1qgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycqyznxppd4xmj05sg6dgn3qc4jfzndw79wkyd6qd0llvhkakj2jayx79c92g9">Kurt Vonnegut</a></p> </blockquote> <p><img src="https://dergigi.com/assets/images/blog/2026-07-30-unfiltered/vonnegut-letter.jpg" alt=""/></p> <p>Whatever &#34;the algorithm&#34; does, there is one thing it does not: make your soul grow. Whether you&#39;re a &#34;creator&#34; or a &#34;consumer,&#34; you are a cog in a machine, catering to interests that you barely understand—that anyone barely understands. Feeding the machine, with your work, your time, your attention, and yes, even your soul.</p> <p>Creating for &#34;the algorithm&#34; instead of creating for the sake of creation itself is hardly creation at all. It is a soul-shrinking activity, as is consumption for consumption&#39;s sake. We&#39;ve built a world that glorifies consumption, and are now living in a world that is hyper-optimized towards one singular metric: the consumption of information. Whether this information is properly ingested, digested, and transformed into a body of knowledge doesn&#39;t matter. And why stop at knowledge? Why can&#39;t we build a world that produces, grows, encourages, incubates, or otherwise brings about lovers of wisdom?</p> <p>Filtering can be useful, no doubt about it. There is hardly any difference between censorship (no information) and overload (all the information, all the time). We&#39;re drowning in information, but starving for wisdom.</p> <p>Algorithms won&#39;t help us with that. We need art, and music, and singing, as Vonnegut wrote so beautifully. Express what&#39;s inside of us, to experience becoming, to make our souls grow.</p> <p>The world is splitting in two, or at least <em>my</em> world, which is the internet. It might be hard to resist the pull of the soul-sucking machinery some days. But when it comes to building a home for my work (and my soul), the choice of which side to inhabit is an easy one: the one that is <a href="/nostr">unfiltered</a>.</p> <hr> <p>This article first appeared on <a href="https://dergigi.com/2026/07/30/unfiltered/">dergigi.com</a>.</p> </blockquote> 2026-08-01T19:02:16Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsg8ss3dn85sfahdvjewvyzlfqnhwmlhwaxvgcxdlt2sw8mka8hp6gzyprqjz3pg9fksxgn733kj4kcwkmzj6vklyst7ejpg9cy6wh3v2d4k9wr3rx In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspp4eh5s0scg724e8ls0w3p60xwsu9hg392fuxxwnjqtqzfpxsxdql35eas'>nevent1q…5eas</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>( I am not 100% sure in the accuracy of the analogy, but that’s the idea I feel) 2026-07-29T21:32:09Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqspp4eh5s0scg724e8ls0w3p60xwsu9hg392fuxxwnjqtqzfpxsxdqzyprqjz3pg9fksxgn733kj4kcwkmzj6vklyst7ejpg9cy6wh3v2d4k4r6j04 🍄‍🟫🍄🍄‍🟫🍄🍄‍🟫🍄🍄‍🟫🍄🍄‍🟫🍄<br/><br/>like mycelium running unseen beneath our feet - decentralized, adaptive, and quietly indestructible - sovereign technologies are the digital equivalent of organic life: an uncensorable, living network operating beneath the rigid concrete of legacy state control.<br/><br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/2bdcecaad4001492ce078d7b78c3641439a2eb5a006cde8bddfff4540653427b.gif"> <blockquote class="border-l-05rem border-l-strongpink border-solid"><div class="-ml-4 bg-gradient-to-r from-gray-100 dark:from-zinc-800 to-transparent mr-0 mt-0 mb-4 pl-4 pr-2 py-2">quoting <br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/nevent1qqsxfe9dshcrewkmgrqxu600ax5pg6antkqmdxe4ph4x506edfm6u3spptfcq" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">nevent1q…tfcq</a></span> </div> - Application - Nsite<br/>- Data - Relay/Blossom<br/>- Network. - FIPS<br/><br/>= Organic, offline propagation of apps & information<br/><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqmjxss3dld622uu8q25gywum9qtg4w4cv4064jmg20xsac2aam5nqqsyr39y50aevtyd46k7s6vn7yxjp0g2xh77sl8wgtrxcwf4tthzt7cwelgvz" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">nevent1q…lgvz</a></span> </blockquote> 2026-07-29T21:26:03Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsga22m8ggcv2yr4w85ku5nmj92znh3y4gm8pxrn3aqsudkupk67yczyprqjz3pg9fksxgn733kj4kcwkmzj6vklyst7ejpg9cy6wh3v2d4keet33e The Future looks bright ☀️<br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/633ad320a8dd6f71382a92e6d463f2fdc2cd53edc9d031a67a8cdbc06426d95e.png"> <blockquote class="border-l-05rem border-l-strongpink border-solid"><div class="-ml-4 bg-gradient-to-r from-gray-100 dark:from-zinc-800 to-transparent mr-0 mt-0 mb-4 pl-4 pr-2 py-2">quoting <br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/naddr1qqshq6tvd3shyueddanz6urjdacxzempw35k7m3dxqej7vpk9uerqv3kqgsthdwa5rs42euhnuz5xsrmmssr84hshwes7uj392vpeldj7z0zw3crqsqqqa28knzc7r" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">naddr1qq…zc7r</a></span> </div> <p><img src="https://blossom.primal.net/d7f4d2a5a2df735ad51616ec54c0b918ba2db6ae69ab211da36811d33404b05b.png" alt="693"/></p> <p>When the internet goes down, a lot goes down with it. All communication grinds to a halt. And communication entails more than WhatsApp, TikTok and other brainrot-catalyst apps. It is about getting in the new order for tomorrow&#39;s groceries that will await you fresh &#39;n green. It&#39;s about getting the truck-driver at the right loading-dock to pick up that load, and give him the right delivery address. It&#39;s his navigation to even get there. It&#39;s the Fuel-pump payment terminal to get him the gas to do it. And (nowadays), it&#39;s your <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/1ody7ey/the_aws_outage_bricked_peoples_2700_smartbeds/?solution=70d1421dceb9b9fb70d1421dceb9b9fb&amp;js_challenge=1&amp;token=bbbe4bf1c9a2b5160829c4be34da5861a7897e1a794ceea1ffbc354a6529ca25&amp;jsc_orig_r=">good night&#39;s sleep</a>.</p> <p>F*cked would be an understatement to say the least. Now imagine that when the internet goes down, we simply...</p> <p>...wouldn&#39;t care?</p> <p>What if we can live in a way where we wouldn&#39;t even <strong>notice</strong> that the internet is down. That&#39;s what I want to talk about with you today.</p> <h2 id="the-first-two-pillars-2">The first two pillars</h2> <p>I want you to think about the physical location of data. Now what does that mean? I mean the physical location where a copy of data exists.</p> <p>On the normal internet, this data is in a central data centre somewhere far away. When you visit a site, you pick up that data, it gets displayed on your browser, and discarded when you close the page.</p> <p>This is a very wasteful and fragile model. If you visit the same page, and try to find the same information again, the whole circus starts all over, to once again throw away the data at the end. This means that you&#39;re incredibly dependent on all parts remaining accessible. Which we know isn&#39;t always the case.</p> <p>Compare this to processes in nature, like a tree that gathers nutrients. A tree doesn&#39;t send out something to go to the roots and pick up a nutrient, go back, and deliver the nutrient. Go out and fetch, go out and fetch, and so on... Instead, a tree has liquids that flow up and bring along nutrients as they are needed, after which it travels down with (waste) products that go back into the soil. It&#39;s a continuous flow, with no start and no end.</p> <p><img src="https://blossom.primal.net/0140312fdbcce98426ed504b45df54d5407541dcfcdda8440dfa1ff3901600ee.png" alt="nutrient_flow"/></p> <p>This is exactly the model that&#39;s possible with Nostr and Blossom. Because the data integrity can be validated from the data itself, the data can flow freely. And since it&#39;s data, these flows can be filtered and duplicated at any point.</p> <p>If that sounds a bit woowoo, let me give you an example: I go to a friend&#39;s profile on a Nostr social app and I load their posts, including the images, which are Blossom files. At that very moment I tap into an existing flow of data somewhere on a far-away relay &amp; blossom server and filter it to my liking. But unlike the go-and-fetch model, the data is now physically replicated on my device. This means that the connection to that far-away relay is never again needed for this same information to propagate.</p> <p><img src="https://blossom.primal.net/f44e3d72757dddc1b6653d223b4cd93174c9e4aa3670877ae05c58ae4981f071.gif" alt="replication"/></p> <p>Let me repeat that: After receiving data from a far-away relay, that same connection is NEVER AGAIN needed for the same information to propagate.</p> <p>Now that this data exists in my local community, ANYONE in need of this information can retrieve it from me rather than the far-away place.</p> <p><strong>THIS</strong> is what makes Nostr + Blossom so incredibly potent. Though few seem to realize it.</p> <h2 id="the-monetary-pillars-2">The monetary pillars</h2> <p>Because Nostr/Blossom are free of any interpretation of the data, we can transport anything with the model described above. AKA: relays don&#39;t care if it&#39;s a social media post or some event that makes a doorbell ring.</p> <p>So, for example, this model can be used for propagating websites with <a href="https://nsyte.run/">nsite</a> as well. Now anyone in my community can view a website that I&#39;ve already collected from the other side of the world once.</p> <h3 id="i-want-to-sketch-a-scenario-here-2">I want to sketch a scenario here:</h3> <p>Let&#39;s say the internet is down and this (nsite) website happens to be a webshop for a local bakery. I&#39;ve visited the webshop before, and just by doing that this data has already been propagated to my devices.</p> <p>This means that anyone in my community can get this data from me, rather than from that connection to far away that&#39;s now unavailable. My neighbour who&#39;s a carpenter now loads the site and products by getting it from me, selects what he needs and goes to check-out.</p> <p>Now we&#39;re stuck with a problem, because we can&#39;t pay without an internet connection. Except... we actually can. With Bitcoin Cashu mints. And not with fancy token-locking, but because our community has its own Cashu mint that continues to be accessible within the bounds of our local network.</p> <p>Yes, we can&#39;t make bitcoin payments OUTSIDE our community as the internet went down, but we can definitely keep circulating the value that is already present within the community. Which accounts for MOST economic activity that we need to survive.</p> <p>My neighbour can order his bread for later pick-up. I can pay him for that job he did for me the other day from the sats I have of this local mint.</p> <p>Then, whenever the wider internet returns, we all pay in/out of the mint as we desire. I might top-up because I net spent and the bakery might cash out over lightning to pay their supplier for next week&#39;s flour.</p> <p><img src="https://blossom.primal.net/11ba9245a324f3da232d08c45e5421bf6c200afe18ba0dd8e4dac2996148c976.gif" alt="circulation"/></p> <h2 id="foundation-for-propagation-2">Foundation for propagation</h2> <p><img src="https://blossom.primal.net/ac9e2cc3d2789a7570a20a836fbf19e39142fe89a58a5bb9def3aa65f0794886.png" alt="quicksand"/> But, one huge problem remains... The internet&#39;s architecture doesn&#39;t support this organic flow of information. It is structured in a way that is too rigid to support a flow so organic, between parts that move around in physical space. The foundations are rattling and about to crumble...</p> <p>It&#39;s not strange that it evolved this way, the great minds behind TCP/IP and adjacent protocols couldn&#39;t have designed for this world of flowing, self-validating data, as the tools we have at our disposal now simply didn&#39;t exist yet.</p> <p>But we can&#39;t keep using a hammer now that we have screws. The tools may look similar and have similar goals. Yet, they&#39;re fundamentally different.</p> <p>Many projects have come and gone that tried to create this new foundation, but never seemed to put all the parts in at once. Focussing on the reinforced concrete, but built on unstable ground. Or put in the pile foundation, but neglect the reinforced concrete. All these genuinely want to build a beautiful structure, but you need to get the touch-points between earth, foundation and structure exactly right.</p> <p>In internet-land that means that we can&#39;t throw away 4+ decades of TCP/IP libraries for a new protocol. We have to be 100% compatible with the existing IP stack. You can&#39;t build a protocol and rebuild everything from the ping application up to Minecraft.</p> <p>At the same time, we can&#39;t build on top of IP itself either, inheriting all its limitations. But, we won&#39;t get anywhere without fully supporting it either. It&#39;s a fine line and hard to get right, but I think FIPS has a good shot at making it work.</p> <h2 id="the-harmonious-hand-off-2">The harmonious hand-off</h2> <p><img src="https://blossom.primal.net/b5fe37c0411be6b88913ea2f870f9d11cd479fc6e6794102df357f5b6a92c72a.png" alt="foundation2"/> The key is in the touch points on top, where applications interface with the networking stack. And the earth, where the networking stack interfaces with the physical world.</p> <h3 id="structure-foundation-2">Structure &amp; foundation</h3> <p>This is the intersection where the pillars rest on their foundation. We can&#39;t require the whole structure to be designed around the foundation, it should just expect a sturdy footing.</p> <p>Cashu mints, Nostr relays and Blossom servers currently rely on DNS as their de-facto identity, it&#39;s not truly theirs. An npub is. However, the system already exists, current tools expect a domain name. FIPS won&#39;t fight this fact, but interoperates with it. Npubs as domain names cover this gap, owning their identity, zero code changes.</p> <p>Not forever, but as an in-road, possibly for decades, but it must be in place to invite the transition to Free Internetworking.</p> <h3 id="foundation-earth-2">Foundation &amp; Earth</h3> <p>The foundation &amp; earth connection is the interface between FIPS and physical transport, which can be any medium and should be many of them at once. A good spider-web is attached at many places, a leaf, a piece of bark and a branch. Any of which can fail for its own reasons, amounting to a mere nuisance when it happens. No catastrophic failures like an interrupted network today.</p> <p>In practical terms this means a network where fiber, Bluetooth and Serial all become your carriers, regardless of the application, or type of data. No application should be bothered with how Bluetooth transport works. And no Bluetooth transport implementation should care what application is using its link.</p> <h2 id="in-closing-2">In closing</h2> <p>We&#39;re in a huge paradigm shift of data propagation, in a way we&#39;ve never done, on a scale we&#39;ve never seen. And with that scale I mean a scale so small that we tend to overlook it. A resilient internet is not one with huge backbone gateways, hyperscale compute clusters and fiber lines. It&#39;s a messy interplay of small relays, mints and Blossom blobs hopping over crappy links in all directions, right to where it needs to be. It is a network that persists through power-cuts, human error and shutdowns. It&#39;s a network where Bluetooth, USB cables and MicroSD cards become your carriers.
