New to Nostr? Here’s something that might feel odd at first if you are coming from other social media platforms:

There is no algorithm that feeds or suggests content to you. This means that at first, your feed might feel a little sparse / lonely.

——

However, as you begin to follow more and more other users whose notes you value, you’ll find your personal feed becomes rich with the signal that you value, and very little of the noise which you do not value.

In #Bitcoin - like - terms, your personal feed is proof of work; you have full responsibility and agency over your shaping your own Nostr content “feed”.

Nostr is a communication protocol, not a platform.

——

To find content, try this:

- Use the search function and follow the hashtag #plebchain

- Look at the profile of a user who posts something you find interesting. Then, follow the people that user follows. (You can always mute / unfollow users later).

Basic Question: How do you “follow” a hashtag? Where is the “follow” button/option? I can’t find it.

Good question; after posting I realized I misspoke. My apologies. There isn’t a way to follow a hashtag as far as I know.

A hashtag can only be used as a search filter; at which point I can follow the individual users who have posts tagged with that hashtag.

It depends on the client you're using.

You can check out this page and see if there's a client that has the options you're looking for-

This is one of the big Blessing/Curses of Nostr.
