Trustroots is a real life social network of travelers and hosts (think couchsurfing(tm)) that offer couches. Founded in 2014, 111k+ members now.
In 2022 it was clear we shouldn't continue as a centralized platform. nostr wasn't ready yet, we looked at ActivityPub (federated so no real solution) and Secure Scuttlebutt (hardly usable).
In 2024 we became serious about moving Trustroots onto nostr and our effort is supported by OpenSats.
