Edward Snowden Joins Nostr

It will most likely be overwhelmed by spam and scams, like telegram or like usenet itself (sadly). Until I got fed up and deleted telegram, I was randomly added to at least 1 investment scam promotion group every week.

Not necessary to delete it, just limit who can add you to the group

> The default settings allow for this, so you will want to change them. To do so, open the app and head to Settings -> Privacy and Security -> Groups & Channels and check off My Contacts instead of Everybody. You can also exclude specific contacts (or include specific users who aren't in your contacts).

I was getting zero value from the app so it was a joy to delete it tbh. But that's good to hear.

They claim to defeat spam, but only mention payments as the way. I am not bullish about nostr
