@Karel od Martiny

We're a nomadic family living full time in a van. We seek as much freedom this way as is possible for us in today's world. We are anarchists, hippies and nomads. Come with us on an amazing journey through life, because life is just awesome :).

We share our findings and reflections from nomadic life on the youtube channel "Karel od Martiny" in Czech language.

Have you used any social media that's not owned by big tech before you used nostr? Can you feel the difference?
Karel od Martiny profile picture
Actually the biggest change from Facebook (I skipped Twitter, tried it for few weeks, then realized that it is only massive group of people screaming at each other and left) is not the freedom (yes, it is, but only theoretically, since I am still posting same things here), but the completely new and fresh mixture of my social bubble. On Facebook I was stuck in a social bubble, that did not feel so good for me and it was not changing anymore. But here everything changed and I feel more free to say anything, because I know, that people in here can handle anything. I like my new social bubble.

Does anyone know of any freedom activists using #nostr?
Karel od Martiny profile picture
I do not think the usual definition of a freedom activist is quite correct. For me, freedom is not a fight. Cant be. And as long as the mind does not let go of the fighting duality, it cannot actually be free, because there is no freedom in a conflict. So for me a true freedom activist is the one who frees himself from his mind. And just by doing that, freedom naturally and quietly spreads around. Just Live and let live, that is the biggest freedom activity.

Teď tu knihu zrovna čtu a vidím to úplně stejně. Povyšování subjektivního tvrzení na objektivní studii. Navíc ten autor tam ve většině kapitol řeší plno problémů, které s mentalotou vůbec nesouvisí. Například poruchovost chytrých tabulí a notebooků. Nebo odtažitost od s...

I quickly uploaded the video on Youtube for those who have read through the whole note and were not able to actually see anything. I will sort the video problem later :):

Oh and this is the link to creatr profile I guess? Interesting project, looking forward to get used to it properly. https://creatr.nostr.wine/profile/npub1y2se87uxc7fa0aenfqfx5hl9t2u2fjt4sp0tctlcr0efpauqtalqxfvr89

Trying Creatr (alternative for patreon and herohero)

Here's a sample of the videos I'll try to post behind the satoshiwall in the future (I hope it is working, I'm posting this through Creatr with "public" checked just to try it out - next videos should be locked for a monthly fee of 4000 sat). I don't expect anyone here to be interested in this, the whole Creatr is supposed to be aimed at my Czech speaking Youtube subscribers who may have this as an added bonus to the whole Youtube channel (or as a way to support that Youtube channel regularly, just because they like it). But it's clear to me that without the added value of that czech Youtube channel these videos won't interest anyone.

I wanted to share it with english speaking nostriches anyway, because since I try to live more and more outside the system, Creatr is currently the only way to arrange regular monthly subscriptions, so I'm excited about it. But I don't expect to get any large numbers of subscribers on it even between the Czech youtube audience (although I have a Youtube channel aimed at the anarchist/freedom/nomad social bubble, I still think most of them still don't actively use Nostr and there is still a lot of non anarchists who do not even have any bitcoin).

But that's the way it is. Maybe it will motivate someone from my viewers to try bitcoin, or even Nostr (I guess have to do a video for them "how to create nostr so you can start supporting us on creatr" :D) Anyway, if anyone wants to see short videos of our privat nomadic lives on the road like this (with english subtitles) that are meant to be ONLY bonuses (and not full standalone episodes suitable for Youtube), if you're bored, or if you have too much money, feel free to join our creatr, there will be more videos like this one. But if you speak only english I do not think there will be big enough motivation to do this... but I'm certainly not going to stop you! :D

I'm just trying this thing out and letting you know that there is a cool Nostr service that is the only possible alternative to Patreon for nomads like us, and that's awesome. Even though we are still too early.

(hope the video works after this long post).

I am getting a lot of rejections when posting from coracle, but when I open it on Damus on my phone and resend, I see all fine (it also gets notifications way way faster for some reason)

I don't really know what to do. I thought that if I pay for 2 relays (nostr.land and nostr.wine), everything will be fine, but it's miserable, lately I have to post new notes 3 times, because they don't catch on any relay and in the end I have to forward the whole note to my mobile and post it via amethyst (which is for me the best client ever, but unfortunately only on mobile, while I need to be able to do my post on PC). And after the posting, I don't know if people see it or not, and it makes me a little sad. I'm still a bit lost in trading relays. But today I found it better to use Brave than Firefox. So I don't know if it could be my privacy settings. Maybe the solution would be to have some client on desktop, that is not in browser, but as standalone software.

I have some problems with my relays. I have 2 paid relays (nostr.land and nostr.wine) and I still get error messages when I try to post (on all of them). Actually this is the second time I am trying to post this comment (I hope there will be no duplicate since I have already posted one and it disappeared). I dont even know if somebody sees this post. Does anybody have a clue what might be wrong? Could it be somehow connected with my poor internet connection?

Looks like the problem might be Mozzila Firefox. Brave works better somehow.
