 # awesome-nostr
-nostr is an open protocol for censorship-resistant global networks created by [@fiatjaf](https://github.com/fiatjaf).
+"nostr" stands for "**N**otes and **O**ther **S**tuff **T**ransmitted by
+**R**elays" and is an open protocol for censorship-resistant global networks
+created by [@fiatjaf](https://github.com/fiatjaf).
 
-### Protocol
-- [nostr](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nostr), main repo with specs.
-- [protocol specification](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips), NIPS protocol specs.
-- [nostr, a basic tour](https://github.com/rajarshimaitra/rust-nostr/blob/main/VISION.md), nostr intro by [@raj](https://github.com/rajarshimaitra).
+## Protocol
+- [nostr](https://github.com/fiatjaf/nostr) - overview and FAQ
+- [NIPs](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips) - the "**N**ostr **I**mplementation **P**ossibilities**" describe the protocol in technical detail
+- [nostr, a basic tour](https://github.com/rajarshimaitra/rust-nostr/blob/main/VISION.md) - an intro to nostr
 
-### Videos
-- [applications on nostr](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2h94RCynIo), store and run applications in a decentralized manner.

-- [nostr-twitter](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpvjL6pAw7o), building a decentralised twitter on the NOSTR network.
+## Relays

+of the public instances.
