I appeared on the Monero Talk podcast, to discuss the new Session bot software Simplified Privacy has been creating. This would allow for the uncensored distribution of content, even under the harshest conditions such as an outright Monero ban.

See the instance setup yourself, by sending a message on Session to the ID: “MoneroTalk”

One word, without quotes. You can download session at getsession.org. As well as the other instance we have setup, at "Simple"

It’s a very long podcast, but I start at 1 hour 17 minutes in, https://www.monerotalk.live/digital-privacy-w-simplified-privacy-monero-price-report-news-more-epi-152

And I see the posts here about Nostr, I’m a fan of that too. This compliments Nostr perfectly. As Nostr is weaker censorship, but easier to spread on the clearweb.

Hey Shadow Rebel, I just installed Session Messenger for the first time after it was suggested to me by the MoneroTalk group. I tested it today with another privacy advocating friend of mine and we both though very highly of it. As a messaging app, it exceeds the polish and functions of Bastyon, but as a twitter-like social media app where you broadcast things out to a large group, Bastyon is better suited. Both are very good at helping to remain anonymous, not asking for telephone numbers or email addresses, but their similarities diverge from there. If you've got some very easy things that I can do to help you using the Session Messenger App, I'd be happy to assist. Perhaps you'd want to DM me here in monero.town with your Session ID and I could find you that way. I also called my nickname prancer389 over there, but I don't know if you can find me that way.

Regards, prancing389

Hey you have to use their blockchain to get short Session names, the name prancer389 isn't assigned. What's the long form numbers and letters of your account?

Edit clarify: By "names" I mean DNS, finding you. You can type anything into the display, just like twitter. But it's not the real username
