It's your very own Twitter for your friends or business. ā Built on open internet protocols, there is no platform that can ban or censor you. You are in control of your data & speech.
One of the first apps to implement the Nostr protocol ā with significant backing from Jack Dorsey and Ed Snowden ā I've used Damus a few times and so far my impression is that this class of product sacrifices an enormous amount of usability and approachability in favor of security, decentralization, and censorship resistance.
That's not to say that this kind of product can't evolve rapidly with a focus on usability now that it's landed in the App Store, but this seems to be akin to the Tor protocol in that it provides features that are important for some users, but somewhat out of reach for the mainstream.
You can follow me here, but as you can see ā public keys aren't exactly memorable! š

The first and best iOS app for the NOSTR network. Smooth experience, frequent updates for the best censorship resistant social media platform. Apple has banned zaps but they can be restored with external scripts: nostrscript.suhailsaqan.com
