I use simplex but just to get some info on certain interest. I dont interact there much.
Ok, so basically, the kind of group community features that people currently rely on Telegram for are perfect for a local, multi-category, members-only communications channel.
Which Nostr client offers or is actively developing these capabilities?
Is SimpleX the answer? I haven’t explored its group chat options enough—does anyone have insights?
It almost feels like a boots-on-the-ground recruitment effort is needed for a collective switch within well-organized, connected local communities. That would be ideal.
All Bitcoin communities should transition off WhatsApp and Telegram ASAP!
For instance, I know that nostr:nprofile1qqs254dy0xkkjdxsl4u08k7cs52u689q67s3pqfwwyfcp4va7avcjdgpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3jamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarjwe5k2aewvdhk6qgewaehxw309amk2mrrdakk2tnwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0hs7rtx uses WhatsApp, and the Bitcoin Beach community in El Zonte relies on Telegram.
But hearing about real-life community members being impersonated and people falling for Telegram scams, causing real-world ruptures within the community, is what's stirring this exploration for me.
It seems entirely possible to spread a compelling enough message that would inspire freedom-minded people to tighten their ship.
