Tired of Big Tech? Discover a Better Internet ⚡️

The internet was fun until it got captured by advertisers, corporate interests, censorship, and governments demanding your ID. What if the solution was already here? This presentation-workshop aims to bring you into a parallel world that already exists free from ads an where you are the owner; not the product. Content creators can also get paid directly by peers for their creativity with no middle-man involved ⚡️

This event is ideal for anyone "fond of the old internet," seeking real connection online, or content creators looking to free themselves from big tech.

You will Discover:

• What Nostr is, how it works, and why it is unstoppable
• Why you own your account (messages, followers, content...) entirely
• How to see only see the content you want and with no ads
• How to "program" your own algorithm
• How to move your content history from one platform to another
• Discover what is being built on Nostr and how you can participate
• What Bitcoin has to do with this (zaps)
• Why Nostr is already changing monetization strategies (v4v)
• And so much more! :)

This event is free but please order something to drink or eat from the cowork café. They will be offering a Happy Hour with a special price on drinks.

The event will take place in two parts: a presentation and then an onboarding workshop for those who wish to give Nostr a try. It will be co-lead by the following local educators:
