Where do you "see others comment"? I am failing, I think, to comprehend how to use this client or interface. I've also tried snort.social and that seems even more incomprehensible to me.
Discussion
I am using an iPhone app called Damus. It shows me two feeds, one for posts and one for “Posts and Replies”.
Are you using this in a web browser or in a phone?
Web clients maybe try coracle.social or primal.net
For iPhone there is another called Current. On Android there is Amethyst.
And others that I’m not thinking of.
Sorry for the delayed response; I'm not yet conversant with this. I am using the Brave web browser on an old Windows 7 desktop computer.
Okay yeah that should work just fine. Try out https://coracle.social or https://primal.net. Maybe they’ll fit your style?
Okay. Seems to be much I must learn.
There is yeah. We’re all working to make this less difficult for new users. And guess what, you’re helping too! Thanks for being here. Try following people, checking out some hashtags like #grownostr, and being interesting!
i think understanding nsec/npub is the first hurdle. having relay intuition the second. what do you think?
That seems like the right order. I would be fine if relays were not brought up immediately to users. Focus on learning the responsibility of owning your identity. That’s the big shift that makes nostr 🔥. You are you, protect it.
i just wonder… irl it seems pretty clear that we use communities to verify identities. i’m not so sure we actually “own” our identities… is this nostr convention a fiction?!
So maybe more like “you own your account”. There is no support t am to reset it for you. It’s both stressful and liberating to have that responsibility.
Now if your identity sucks, then yeah maybe the community won’t be cool with that. 🫠
Let me try this. My hope is that I reply to you (marks) and not just to myself (m).
Ah...I just respond in the Write Your Reply window, then press the > "button", and the reply appears at the bottom...starting to make more sense now.
Let me see if I can respond to the other fellow who replied to me...
Welcome!
Amethyst for Android is good for notifications and seeing comments and threads.
The Plebstr app is decent too, currently notifies users of "mentions"
Thank you, Jordan!
Now I can't see my two responses. Argh.
