If you are a bored developer maybe you will be interested in implementing simple NIP-23 Nostr sources support on some open-source RSS reader apps out there for something like $800 each.

The goal is to make it work, record some screencasts and open PRs. If they will merge or not that's their decision and we don't care.

The feature is just to support pasting npub, nip05 or nprofile URIs, use relay hints if available or fetch write relays from kind:10002, then fetch new kind:30023 articles from these relays periodically just like the app already fetches RSS feeds from URLs. No need to bother with comments, likes, anything for now.

Eligible apps:

- https://gitlab.com/news-flash/news_flash_gtk

- https://github.com/Ranchero-Software/NetNewsWire

- https://github.com/nkanaev/yarr

What resources would you recommend to get started building on Nostr and implementing NIPs?

Im use https://atomstr.data.haus/ for Get feeds in Nostr. Have other too https://rss.nos.social/

Would be nice to use with the nostr uri. I am interested more in the media than the long form, then a simple link in kind 1 will pop in the rss from anywhere but also the lives and the flare pub events and so on.

I'll add some sats for NetNewsWire. Awesome app

nostr:npub1xzrkzsrnr83vn7h0udq6tnapwpswy5equlrtkn3nu0e0anlmzynqne0qap bookmarking for later. Seems similar to what we’re going to achieve with our Buttondown integration

It sure is. It would be great to set up an email service that sends our NIP-23s out to subscribers. Hmmmm

Sent you a DM on Telegram. Im gonna give it a try.

This could be interesting way for RSS readers (and also podcast clients) to start to include also the capability to publish, eventually. I don't know how much interest there is in that for those existing users though.

2 already reserved.

2 other reserved, another 1 interested.

Which ones? How many of these do you even need tho, fr

🤙

I've been using reeder on ios, biggest issue is finding high quality feeds. rss discoverability sucks

Used NIP 17 to get to you. Please respond
