The Fediverse isn’t the only form of decentralized social media that exists.

There’s also the Relayverse, of which Nostr is prominent.

In many ways, the Relayverse is a mirror universe of the Fediverse.

People there get very angry if you’re not into crypto.

Another weird quirk of the Relayverse is that people seemingly love spam.

I’m not joking here. They positively love being flooded by unsolicited DMs peddling casinos and boner pills.
