This is excellent; congrats! Roadmap question. It would be amazing if each event organizer had a Nostr profile, and their event was published under their account. Is this something you are considering for the future?

500 a day?! That's impressive. Still toying around with the idea of joining, but my paranoia is currently holding me back. Have there been any stories of criminals using this app to track down potential wrench victims?

No. The best way would be to generate the key pair for new users on the client and save the encrypted nsec in local storage. That way the user is the only one with access to their nsec. Most Nostr apps work this way, including Primal. A major benefit of this approach is that any existing Nostr user will be able to login to the Orange Pill App.

Filters are kinda wonky? I search "CA" and I get a bunch of stuff that isn't actually in CA... is it just a text search?

Awesome, I've heard great things about events on orange pill app and now I can build my own calendar view :) I notice an issue with the events structure though. Its not mentioned in the NIP (for some reason) but commonly there are multiple "g" tags. one for each level of the geohash. that way its possible to lookup events by a wider area For example a geohash of "dntp5s" would be 6 tags: - ["g", "d"] - ["g", "dn"] - ["g", "dnt"] - etc... Its an annoying side effect of how relays index tags and events and I'm not sure why its not mentioned in the NIP

It’s not mentioned in NIP-52 because I didn’t think of it and there’s relatively few clients that support that functionality, but it looks like there’s some exciting momentum to be able to improve things!

I'm not sure how well this will work but I just pushed "OPA Release - map on /events" to nostrcal. This release is geared to let you view our /events page displayed over a physical map. It's an early push to get it out to celebrate @Club Orange awesome move bringing their catalog of Bitcoin Meetups to nostr. Expect issues with improvements coming over the next few days!
