How to Use RebelNet w/ Nostr (Previously Linked-out)
This is a guide to using Nostr with RebelNet.me. This previous article goes over what this.
Linked-Out.me is a network of federated websites. Normally with a website, you enter a password into the website. But with encryption based social networks such as Nostr, you “sign” posts to prove it’s you. So the website never sees your password and this empowers the end user.

Step 4) In the bottom left is the Publish button for a new post. But you have to get whitelisted. This is to prevent child porn from being spammed, like it is in our Session and Signal groups. To get whitelisted DM us:
DM on Nostr:

Session ID: Support
Signal #:+855 68 504 905
Or One of the other contacts
The browser extension uBlock Origin lets you see what Nostr relays you’re connecting. This is how you’re pulling Nostr usernames, avatar, and bio/posts. However, the actual posts are federated, so it can
