It was incredibly painful to record this episode, but here it is: Listen to my journey attempting to test @awala.app in the real world. After facing significant funding challenges with my initial plans, I decided to *extend* Awala's scope to incorporate a VPN, initially targeting China.

Greetings, fellow human! 🖖🏽 I recently started the Inside Awala podcast to share the work we're doing with @awala.bsky.social to support the 73% of the world population that's subject to severe Internet censorship, which restricts their human rights. You'll find it wherever you get your podcasts!
