Nostria is deployed in Africa, Europe and North America at the moment. Regionality is an important aspect of social media. New users on Nostria, will connect to relay and media server that are located in the same region.
While there is plenty of spam on Nostr, connecting to a regional relay will contain more locally relevant content, improving the user experience.
Our efforts to be available in many global regions should also include us supporting multiple different languages.
While we won't translate the whole app just yet, we did add support for multiple languages, including isiZulu and Kiswahili. Unfortunately we can't read it, we hope our community will contribute making Nostria a great experience in many of the worlds languages.


We've updated Nostria Find with options to open the Nostr profile using the default web or default native Nostr client on your device.
We added support for "Publish Event", which allows you to re-publish any event you discover to additional relays. Sometimes you want to move your events from previous relays to new ones, or there was networking issue when you published.
It's quick and easy, here is a demonstration:

Pre-Seed Funding Round:
Work continues and we recently developed yet another new piece of software to support our needs, the Nostria Notification. It's a service that allows user's to setup notifications to be received on different devices. You can even manage other devices from any of your devices, so you can "logout" notifications on a device you don't use anymore and set filter/rules where you get your notifications.
Many other new features being added and improved daily!
The Pre-Seed Funding Round for Nostria is now live!
We are proud to have published the Pre-Seed Funding Round for Nostria on Angor. This is a peer to peer decentralized funding platform built on Bitcoin and Nostr, which we are using to raise funding to complete the MVP (Minimum Viable Product) for Nostria.

We are running a test deployment in South Africa (Johannesburg) and from Europe we experience 188 ms latency.
From Johannesburg to our Discovery Relay, the latency is:
0.760 ms (Microsoft)
1.55 ms (Google)
From Cape Town:
20.4 ms (Amazon)
This is incredible improvement and will improve the user experience for everyone where Nostria is deployed.
As we continue our journey, we will deploy into new regions.
Nostria is still under development and we are not ready for production.
Follow us for more updates!
The Earth is big and the speed of light is limited. Did you know that it takes about ~232ms for data to move between Amsterdam (Europe) and Tokyo (Japan)?
From Cape Town (Africa) to Tokyo (Japan) it's a massive ~378ms.
At Nostria, we believe that everyone should have a great experience on Nostr, no matter where you are physically located.
This is why we are building an infrastructure for global scale at Nostria, having discovery relays, user relays and media servers closer to everyone.
In the future we are additionally planning a special premium feature that will allow popular content creators to have user relays and media servers in each region. If you are a popular content creator and you want your followers to have the best experience, this will be a good option for you.
