"I really wanted to screen share stuff with people and make it as easy as possible and I got fed up. So I was just like, okay, you know, let's throw this up and let's stick on a nostr log in and let's add lightning zaps to it as a starting point. It was pushed out a bit prematurely, but... I think a lot of people want to use it.. they want a way to talk to other people where you're not really getting tracked.
We want to be able to provide a space where people don't feel like there's some Googly eyes watching whatever they're talking about. And I don't want to know either... the way I think about this is if someone comes along and subpoenas penis that server, there's nothing there."
