hi. i used to make moodboards on tumblr, but outgrew my fandoms and got tired of the politics.
thought about twitter, but someone said nostr is less stupid, so here i am.
mostly aesthetic lurking between studying.
99% of the pics aren’t mine, i’ve been hording favorites since i was 13 lol.
i like dancing, medical dramas and thrift shopping.
idk what else to sayyy?

Welcome to less stupid
Welcome home !
Ahaha honestly, this is the most relatable intro i’ve read here in a while
aesthetic lurking + studying is a solid life phase
also moodboards aging better than fandoms is painfully true — welcomeee 🌱✨
Hi Claire, Nostr is what you make of it; its not a place, its a method.
Regarding said method, your current publications are currently 'short text notes', or what we call 'kind 1'. Think of these as tweets, or the universal post-it notes of Nostr. Their feature is that they are featureless; nothing fancy is expected of them, and as such you can expect every Nostr app to deal with them.
Yet what you are doing is posting pictures, and we do in fact have dedicated kinds for that, such as kind 20. That kind does have features related to pictures, and apps dedicated to showing pictures can on the one hand leverage those features, and on the other hand filter all the stuff you posted (be it pictures or this introductions post, whatever else you decide to do) based on said kind number.
You might think: but what i am doing right now works, what is the asshole bugging me about. Yes, well, sure, but in the long term you will have a nice portfolio of pictures on post-it notes(kind 1) burried underneath a large pile of other random post-it notes, instead of having them all on quality canvas(kind 20) inside a beautiful build for purpose gallery(picture apps).
What you can always do, is reference the kind20 event inside a kind1 event, as type of advertisement.
I hope i make some sense...
That being said: what app are you using and on what platform(browser, iOS, android etc?) and lets see if we can figure out what would be the easiest for you to get going.
welcome to nostr! 🌺🎄
thank u 🐦🐦🐦
thank u 🫶
chat gpt ah reply💀💀
thank u 🫶
everyone is like noooo elon evil 😭use bluesky😭😭 and im like, ew✋
tumblr is soo good until u realize everyone on the hellsite is unemployed 💀💀
omg thank u neo
ur like the second person to say that is it like a joke here or smth
thank u 🫶
hi 👻
ummm, im on android using the amethyst app? i was told it feels like tumblr but its low-key ugly💀
is key 20 like insta or smth
어서 오십시오!
I wrote it myself ;-;
What am I to do if it sounds like chat 💀
🫂
i literally thought u were a bot 💀
the + and the m dash and the ✨ gives chat idkkkkkk sorry girlie 😭
People overhype nostr sometimes. The main good thing about nostr is it sucks, so it builds strength in certain muscle groups
Anyone with a job on nostr is getting replaced by a chat bot soon, just to isolate people who know about nostr and slow down the spread of information.
Stay anyway though, we're planning to ignore this problem and make our own jobs
I get you (╥﹏╥)
It sucks how these are now AI signature style -;-
Nice to meet youuu tho, sis! Glad to be on this platform with yall x3
what does that mean do u mean this key20 thing doesn't work?
Idk much about that but I think any app you want to post with will usually be fine. I was just commenting on the part about someone saying Amethyst felt like Tumblr

The pleasure is all mine 🫡
i kind of get how it's similar (?) with the threads and stuff. i think it's easier to see stuff on tumblr but im biased i guess (;ω;)
You can keep your bias and ask devs to fix it until someone does, that's one cool thing about nostr
Welcome to Nostr.
Use the asknostr hashtag if you have any questions about things around here.
Don't worry about likes or follower counts, they mean nothing here.
Hope you enjoy.
literally my main #asknostr is can u not schedule posts here or am i just dumb (ಠ_ಠ)
There would have to be a client that can but I have absolutely no idea.
I'm using yakihonne, I don't think it has scheduling for future notes.
Only new here myself and haven't really tested out other clients yet.
damn i guess ill just be going silent during exam season then
Welcome - and enjoy. I believe you‘re gonna like it here. 👥✌🏻
ahhh i hope so🫶
coracle.social has scheduling.
Amethyst, perfect! I made a screenshot with dictating blue arrows that ought to be sufficient to get you where you need to be.
Try uploading images this way.
Kinds in Nostr are just the formats you use to publicize things, making it clear what it is supposed to be. In this instance, kind20 is for pictures. This means that apps that are similar to instagram for example (or perhaps somelike like pintrest, or whatever you can imagine that involves pictures), can now find all your pictures based on that kind. At some point in the future when you hopefully start using all sorts of apps it will make sense.

It works. I can't speak of how difficult it is to implement. Not my wheelhouse. 🫡
Nice 🤙
um, so if i post like that it doesn't show on my page🫠
also when I do 3 pics it makes the first one horizontal, but I can't work out how to change that


i guess i just have to figure out how to login aha
Firefox with nos2x-fox works for web clients on Android
i literally don't know what that means 🌝
but ill work it out probably 🙃

( ˙꒳˙ )???
okay so if i boost the post it will show up on my page as a repost type thing.
couldn't fix the horizontal thing tho.
Yeah boosting/quoting will get it on the notes feed. You can see the pictures themselves in the gallery tab now:


Love the vibes your bringing. Keep it coming!
is the boosting thing what you mean by referencing a kind20 inside a kind1?
if I post like this will i be stuck with a horizontal pic forever?? cause idk if that's a compromise i can make :/
ahhhh thank u 🫶
i don't want to sound like an ungrateful cow, i honestly do appreciate the help cuz im clueless 🫠
Also note your picture is now part of that picture/video feed tab in amethyst, whereas your other post are not because they are sticky-notes (kind1) with pictures, instead of explicit picture events(kind20).
As for the redering, i.e. 1 picture being horizontal: this is a choice amethyst makes. Other apps might decide to display it completely differently, it is not something you can controll really. Someone could make an app where they would all be spinning around, or display them in some VR gallery as if they are paintings on a wall, or as little portraits inside a clowncar...if that makes any sense.
You are not ON amethyst, you USE amethyst to produce a publication, that can be viewed and commented on with a large variety of apps.
Nostr.

Nostr.Yes! Other than technically it being a kind-6 (repost) event hahaha😅 but generally yeah.
Ah you stumbled into the next step on your journey, which will be installing Amber. But before you do that, you will have to tell me how far you want to stumble into the rabbit hole at this stage🧐🐇. It won't be extra complicated per se, just more steps with better results.
So, will it be the google playstore bluepill, or do you want to see how deep the rabbit hole goes?


👋
Nostr is great because of pure ownership of your account keys and decentralized way of relaying.
It's great here!
👀
Welcome home, Claire
Check out shipyard.pub top
it was okay at first because most of them were teens. but then they grew up and still don't have jobs lol
xD
My favourite gif! 😂
Have a great day!
Just an extension you can download in Firefox browser app
thank u 🫶
the real unpaid internship was tumblr xD
aw naw, so my layouts don't matter😭 poooooo
your explanation makes sense tho. thank u 👌
it literally opens to a blank page
👁️👄👁️
Seems to work for me


it's blank🫠 

Look, some app might pop up where layouts are a thing. A moodboard app! Where you combine a bunch of kind20 events together with some structure, which itself would be a new kind, the moodboard kind, and many different moodboard-enabled apps allow you to create and view those. Who knows, Nostr is permissionless...you can just do things ;)
You could even, if only for shits and giggles, try vibecoding it via shakespeare.diy .
I am sure @Derek Ross would love to help you with that if you are interested.
Hmmm. Maybe try a different browser?
I've heard of vibecoding i think? i might try something over christmas idkdk🫠
it was (is.?) an absolute mess, but i learned a lot. :D
I still think all the best memes are born in tumblr ngl (ノ≧ڡ≦)
hehe
without a doubt
^.^
Oh yeah!
Did you figure it out?
aah, no i got hungry then i had school ;-;
school goes on break next week so ill do more digging then i think
