That’s so funny, I was just thinking how can I send a newsletter to the nip-05 subscribers on nostrarabia.com

Then I went into a rabbit hole of thinking… what if nip-05 WERE emails…

How would account creation look like, maybe you start with getting a nip-05, and the client gives you a “password” aka nsec.

Then figure how would they interact with SMTP.

And I designed a mental workflow that I think will be very valuable for nostr adoption.

But I don’t know how to code 🤣

I'd be happy to learn more about your ideas here!

Regarding sending to your nip05 subs - do you mean nostr DMs? Newsletters delivered over DMs might be interesting too.

I think through DMs is good too. One click send to all is amazing I think.

Front-end: We will need an opt-in mechanism, because we don’t want to be spammy.

Back-end: We need a message composer with a scheduler and draft features I think.

As for the email idea, that’s more complicated.

Composer+draft - so it's more about sending custom messages for you? Not just "here is a new post" newsletter kind of thing?

Scheduler - what's your specific use for it?

If you explain the complicated email idea maybe we could simplify it. Send DM if needed.
