Finally grabbed my mitts on the #Olas iOS app, which is similar to #Instagram and #Pixelfed —except it runs on the #Nostr protocol.
And for the first time, I feel like Nostr is actually useful because the Bitcoin talk is at a minimum.
Don’t use the web app—giving web apps your private key is a bad idea! 
I'm so tired of hearing about Bitcoin on here! It's a good currency, but how can you talk about a currency ALL THE TIME? That's some boring-ass shit
Yeah, I barely look at the firehose for this exact reason.
I'll think it'll change when Nostr becomes widely adopted by the general public
Chicken an egg problem. The general public won’t join because the perception is that #Nostr is a one-topic protocol.
The only way it grows is to build apps, like #Olas, with a singularly different purpose.
By the way, Nostr isn’t the only protocol affected by this problem. The perception of #Mastodon is that it’s full of FLOSS dorks.
I dunno about that. Early internet was just for tech nerds. Now look at it.
