Thanks for helping me discover something fresh / new 🤩
Thanks for listening!!!
Thank YOU 🧡🫵 I'm not done yet, and actually I've decided to go to one of the very 1st episodes.
The night is young 😁 hehehe
Awesome! Hey, there are only 4 out so far, so you can totally get caught up quickly (and get your #40HPW in!)
Thanks! My 40HPW is fine 😎 sometimes even exciting, esp with Fountain and Zapstream. By the way, I'm soooo curious to see how Podstr is going to work. CONGRATS on that 🧡🎉 Yaaay!
So, I finally listened to only two of your episodes and decided to "move to other things," as a certain smart guy once said 😁...
The show is definitely something fresh and feels real, but I'm kind of unsure who the target audience is 😅. No offense though, don't get me wrong. I think I see where you're heading. But since you're mixing advanced topics—with fir example names and facts only Nostriches and Bitcoiners would know and care about—while also trying to explain Nostr itself with such basic examples and almost trivial tone... it feels like it might not fully resonate with either existing users or complete newbies (or even the folks we all hope will join soon).
Also, it's a pity the focus is mostly on the social media aspect 🥺. Where's the stuff about blogging—which is the best alternative to Substack or Medium—or building your own websites, using e-commerce, listening to / sharing music, live streams, and even crowdfunding? Hm? 🙃
Another idea: maybe consider mentioning that many social media clients have auto-translate. That's sooo cool, especially since not everyone is living n an English-speaking echo chamber 😋. That point worked really well when I was talking about Nostr in Thailand, a few LATAM countries, and my homeland, Poland. It feels amazing to understand posts from all over the world in English, even though they were originally written in a language I don't speak at all. Just something to think about 🙃
Anyways, that's just my brief feedback—maybe useful, maybe not. And it's only based on two episodes, which I still really enjoyed. All in all, thank you for doing this 🤜⚡🤛 Please keep building, recording, and spreading the good vibe of the "Purple Verse!" 💜💜💜
Thanks for the feedback! 🙏🏻 I appreciate you! I’m not sure Nostr has an alternative to Substack or Medium yet. In the sense that I can post a blog here and earn more than on Substack or Medium, yes. But in the sense that Nostr doesn’t have the capabilities of either, no.
How about just even examples like HablaNews, YakiHonne, or Highlighter in a way too? 🙃 I stopped publishing on Medium a while ago thanks to them. I see more professional writers than myself, like nostr:nprofile1qqs9gcysfq5y62s4rjxlvf05psuf6s376ptlemuj0kugj4kj3c3t5qcpzamhxue69uhkzarvv9ejumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcpzamhxue69uhky6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skctcpypmhxue69uhky6t5vdhkjmndv9uxjmtpd35hxarn9ehkumrfdejj7zsm6rc, for example, putting more and more of his content only on Nostr as well.
Oki, I remove Habla from the list, at least for a while. Seems they are updating the platform, no option to publish/write anything, and they did delete all my past articles 🫣 thank God, it's Nostr, so they still exist elsewhere 😁
You can say that again! Thank you for the shout out too 🤝🔥😁
