What is NOSTR, really? In this episode, I sit down with NOSTR developer, Jon (aka HODLBOD, to explore not just the nuts and bolts of this decentralized social protocol β but the why behind it.We go beyond the tech to ask big questions:π How does technology shape the way we think, remember, and connect?π§ Can decentralization offer more than free speech β can it restore meaning?π± Is the architecture of Big Tech silently forming your worldview?β‘ What role does memory, faith, and truth play in our digital future?This is a wide-ranging, deeply human conversation about NOSTR, censorship resistance, Bitcoin, and how the tools we use either fragment us β or set us free.Whether you're a developer, a seeker, or just someone questioning the system, this one's for you.π Don't just scroll β reflect, rethink, and reconnect.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Intro to NOSTR and why it's important06:36 How can a social media be decentralized any open source?15:21 New approach to social media20:13 Why Jon started coding23:11 Connecting Christianity to work and technology26:26 Intersection of faith and tech29:30 Work.
