Nostr
Nostr is a decentralized network protocol for a distributed social networking system. The name is an acronym for "Notes and Other Stuff Transmitted by Relay". Posts are resistant to censorship and are cryptographically validated.[1] Jack Dorsey, the co-founder of Twitter, endorses and financially supported the development of Nostr.[2][3][4]
