If the meetup grows\, we can think about whether we need dedicated developer nights or not.\n\n### What is Nostr?\nA simple way to think of nostr is as a censorship-resistant social media protocol. In other words\, instead of social media being owned by large tech giants\, it could be a free and open protocol\, the way email is.\n\nHowever\, nostr is being use d for much more than just building social media apps. [Nostr](https://nost r.org/) flips the current internet paradigm of "dumb client/smart server" to "smart client/dumb server"\, by using relays and public-key cryptograph y.

[Nostr](https://nostr.org/) flips the current internet paradi gm of "dumb client/smart server" to "smart client/dumb server"\, by using relays and public-key cryptography.
