Old-School Forum Built on Nostr Open Protocol

Original: Show HN: An old school forum on an open protocol – your identity is a keypair

A developer has launched a classic-style internet forum that runs on an open protocol, where each user's identity is a cryptographic keypair rather than a central account. The project, showcased on Hacker News, draws on Nostr-style decentralised principles: no central authority controls logins, and users own their identity. Commenters are debating whether simple, retro forum design combined with open protocols could offer a refreshing alternative to modern social platforms.

Why now: Fresh interest in decentralised, self-owned identities as an alternative to corporate social platforms
