Everyone should check out the new Circles app built on Matrix protocol.

It is definitely inspiration for something that could be done on Nostr. I’d like to see more emphasis on private convos and more intimate connections. Products built for family for example. Maybe that just isn’t what Nostr is for. In which case, maybe Matrix is better.

There’s a looong way to go until the bull run. This 50k era won’t hold and that’s just fine
What if you used Rama to make a Nostr relay? Reduce costs by 100x?

I *want* to pay $5 per year for Nostr usage.
I paid $5 to use Farcaster and am never opening that up again.
Hell, I’ll pay $12 per year for Nostr.
Only need native nostr apps to start using the same URI pattern like “nostr://“ or “nostrapp://“
Let the user’s operating system handle which app opens the content.
Personally, I don’t use any browser apps for nostr (I can’t stand browser extensions). Having this for native apps would be so convenient. View quoted note →
I’m so sick of seeing “str” everywhere man. Please make it stop
Theologically, I’ve become a blend of Messianic Judaism, Biblical Unitarianism, Michael Heiser style henotheism.
I don’t think these beliefs are required for salvation, but it’s where I’ve arrived after honest inquiry
Thousands of NIPs could be rendered unnecessary if we just had an NIP for WebXDC apps instead.
I am once again promoting WebXDC as the standard for interactive mini-apps on Nostr.
Developed by Delta Chat (the encrypted chat client built on email), but designed as a new standard that can be used anywhere.
Farcaster has seen a lot of interest in their Frames system.
WebXDC embodies the ethos of Nostr however. “no logins, no coins, no platforms”

Webxdc: mini apps shared in a chat
Secure mini apps for chats. No internet access, no tracking, no servers.
Check out the farcaster app (Warpcast) onboarding experience.
Includes $5 payment for 1 year of service. That price point is perfect for me.
Nostr is better because it doesn’t require a username. Farcaster requires a username and you can’t change it ever.

Farcaster App - App Store
Download Farcaster by Merkle Manufactory on the App Store. See screenshots, ratings and reviews, user tips, and more apps like Farcaster.
iTunes and Podcasting are coming back in style (according to the well known 20 year fashion cycles).
Nostr can be at the forefront of this trend!
They’re gonna have a field day with Nostr 😂 this network will be a feeding ground for every parasitic surveillance economy out there View quoted note →
Does anyone remember that Wikipedia style project built on nostr? Anyone remember the name or developer of it?
