no servers hold your identity · no algorithm holds your reach

X wants the app.
Take the graph and leave.

X now forces an app install just to read a webpage. Your posts, your followers, your history — none of it is theirs to lock. Nostr is a protocol, not a platform: your identity is a key you hold, your content is signed by you and lives on open relays no one can switch off.

STEP 1 — YOUR NOSTR IDENTITY
Two ways to sign. Your key never leaves this browser tab — all signing happens client-side. The server never sees it.
If you have Alby or nos2x installed, this is one click. Recommended.
Don't have a Nostr key yet? Generate one below — it's created in your browser, from thin air. Download the backup and you own a censorship-proof identity.
STEP 2 — YOUR X ARCHIVE
On X (browser works for this): Settings → Your account → Download an archive of your data. Takes a day or so to prepare. You get a ZIP. No app required.
Drop your X archive .zip here
or tap to browse · processed entirely in this tab + this server's relay queue
STEP 3 — PUBLISH TO NOSTR
Posts are signed in your browser with your key, then published to open relays. Original timestamps preserved — your history stays yours. Rate-limited so relays don't reject the burst.
STEP 3 — WHO'S ALREADY HERE
We scan your X following list against Nostr's NIP-05 directory and common relays. Your people may already be on the other side.
WHY THIS WORKS
Your identity is a key — no company can suspend it, sell it, or wall it behind an app install.
Your history moves with you — timestamps preserved, posts verified yours by signature, not by platform mercy.
Your graph follows you — follow lists are public on Nostr. No gatekeeping the social graph.
No algorithmic feed — chronological from the people you chose. No one profits from your attention.
Keys never touch this server. Signing happens in your browser. We can't steal what we never see.
Built on open protocol. Nostr keys are yours alone — back up your nsec offline, treat it like a house key.
