Thread - Nostr Hypermedia

If you've: 1. Been here a while 2. Deleted your Twitter account, say, > 6 months ago 3. Feel like nostr is stagnant or dying I recommend the following: 1. Visit X. 2. Scroll any thread for 30 seconds are more. Pick one at random. 3. Close X. 4. Take 5 deep, cleansing breaths. 5. Open your nostr client of choice. 6. Smile and rejoice.

"I will keep posting even if I'm the only one." is the nostr equivalent of "I will buy Bitcoin at $0.01."

My husband goes on Twitter at times, and that's enough exposure for me to be thrilled to be on Nostr, and not X. I've never taken back an ex, and I'm not about to start with X 🤣 (I do use grok though, but I never check the X feed)

*chef's kiss* This is the start of a nostr ad campaign. I'm with you. I use grok, too.

I can appreciate Nostr's value and also understand that user growth is stagnant and/or on a decline. App development is off the charts though. I'm working hard to bring the two together. More ideas. More apps. More freedom. More user choices.

Hah, yes, "If you feel icky after scrolling through X, and want a healthier and more positive social media experience, consider joining Nostr, the decentralized social media network where you are your own algorithm." And then add something about, "you'll never wanna go back to your Ex X" 🤣

I don't think more apps is the solution to the most pressing challenges. Better UX and QA are. But I do think that more experimentation is better. And more Derek is definitely better. 🫂

I'm hoping more apps adds to more experiences and more interoperability. And yes I agree absolutely, we need much better UX and more stable apps. The concept of Nostr is cool and understandable by many, but in practice the apps have to be able to compete on stability and usability or no one is going to use them after the honeymoon phase.

I would recommend focusing on the onboarding process. Various clients and two different long strings of gibberish keys is a lot for a standard user to take in all at once. I know some other people have discussed follow groups and I think that's a great idea.

X is way more dead and fake than it used to be.

There’s a grok app. I use it and no longer have X.

Never felt that nostr was dying. People who think that way are just boring imo.

I've never had a Twitter account at all, nor will I be getting one. Twitter is a blackmailing honeypot nowadays, and always was (heck, even @jack ran it for a while, though middle management under him destroyed his chances of improving things).

[온리 노스터 유저분 보고 가세요 ㅎㅎ] 당신이 다음에 해당된다면: 이곳에 꽤 오래 있었고 트위터 계정을 6개월 이상 전에 삭제했으며 Nostr가 정체됐거나 죽어가는 것처럼 느껴진다면 다음과 같이 해보세요: X(트위터)에 접속합니다. 아무 쓰레드나 골라서 30초 이상 스크롤합니다. X를 닫습니다. 깊고 정화되는 심호흡을 다섯 번 합니다. 당신이 사용하는 Nostr 클라이언트를 엽니다. 미소 짓고, 기뻐하세요. View quoted note →
