Yes, the previous solution were based on a standard that was obvious wasn’t going to work and a few of us said so at the time; we’ve been working on a different solution, NIP-29, that has A TON of momentum behind and that I’m fairly positive will work. To be clear, what @Mike Rama is saying here is EXACTLY the use case I have in mind for both Olas and specially Highlighter; my wife and many people in my close circles are described by what Mike is mentioning here; in fairly confident that what we’re building now completely enables that use case completely supercharged compared to existing siloed solutions.

Yeah, but it'll have communities too. Imagine a "fitness community" or a "creator xyz community" Where each community is an interoperable microcosmos of nostr, from chat, to forum, to commerce, to live streaming; etc etc. Instead of fighting the platform, if you want to sell something to your audience you can bring commerce, a merch store, whatever, right within your community. Olas/IG-type use case can be the main medium through which a community forms around but then each community can leverage any other use case without needing to try to drive traffic away from any platform.
No, only here. I deleted all my other accounts to focus all my energy here. Highlighter is in a very raw state at the moment as I'm rebuilding pretty much all of it. But you can think of it as a Substack where distribution happens organically for all content, and where each interaction between audience and content (even paid content) is an organic amplification of the creator's reach (If I find something worthwhile in your paid newsletter and create a highlight of it, that highlight goes to all the people that follow ME and natively links to YOU: all my followers can see what your stuff is about right from their Primal or Damus feed and perhaps even subscribe to your newsletter right from their microblogging feed)
