Nostr
=====

Nostr is a simple, open protocol that enables global, decentralized, and censorship-resistant social media. Clients allow you to browse and send Notes (and "*Other Stuff*") that have been transmitted to Relays. Relays collect and store Notes, where clients then download them. Secure personal profiles are created by using public/private key pairs. 

You can run both a Client and a Relay on StartOS.
