Hey Amy. Nostr is a bit rough around the edges and not all Nostr apps are the same. Decentralization is hard! Some are better at finding people and content than others. If the app that you're using isn't the best at finding people, then it's up to you to do the work and be social. You can search hashtags and keywords. You can comment on other people's notes and let them know that you're here. I think you're using Damus, right? It's a great app but I'll say that Primal does a slightly better job at user and content discovery with different feeds. You can take your secret or private key from Damus and enter it into Primal and give it a try. Nostr let's you take "your account" and login to many different Nostr apps to see what others have to offer.

Welcome! Glad to have you! I start by finding a couple of people whose content I like and then look at who they follow and engage with to find others who are like-minded. πŸ‘‹ 🌱

MK I could not zap your note

It's going to be okay πŸ™‚

I'm getting told "You may need inbound liquidity." when trying to zap

I know you are new but you definitely need to setup a lightning wallet so we can zap you β€οΈπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

Simple. Just follow others you like and then shitpost relentlessly. Welcome!

Welcome! As someone else said, hashtags are a good start, things like #art #photography #foodstr - whatever your interests are. When you find someone whose notes you like, check out who they follow and who follows them.

I used the global feed to find interesting people who are active.

Check following list of npubs with similar interests, you can follow hashtags too

This is the way.

Also, be prepared to unfollow in a moment's notice with no hard feelings. Your extended network may have overlapping interests but also a lot of people you just don't like to hear from or who post things you would prefer never show up on your feed.

Hi!

Or just watch the post list and follow the most funny guy you find.

Welcome to the Protocol

It’s not easy but with time you will find your connections

I use Primal and wander around Nostr somewhat randomly. I’ve gradually begun following interesting people and also being followed by a few. What I see now when I open Primal is more interesting than it was a few months ago when I started.

Follow people your friends follow, and then remove some later. No algorithm takes some getting used to but it's worth it.

Different apps have their different search engines. You can search by hashtags, people nicknames, or keywords.. primal has a powerful option to do that by clicking on explore…

Hello & welcome!

The easiest way is by searching hashtags tags of topics that interest you, and if you want a good starting place #grownostr is a good start for non-btc related content

Nostr is freedom tech, can't be banned and you control your data. You take ownership of your data and who and what you follow. Search around via hashtags, find interesting people and follow who they follow. You'll soon build a healthy follow list. And when you get the chance set up a lightning wallet to zap (you can receive and send small units of Bitcoin), some clients that make this easy are Primal and Yakihone. If you have any questions try #asknostr and someone will help ya out. Welcome!

The easiest way would be via hashtags.

https://nostr.band -- is also very useful.

welcome πŸ‘‹πŸ€  enjoy the #freedom

enjoy #nostr

#asknostr is the best hashtag for helpful nostriches.

Welcome πŸ€—

hashtag searching is probably the best way.

i have this list of people here, you might like some (not sure which client you are using, and if they support lists), but here it is in case you can see it lol:

there's is currently 3 ways that i use to find people

1( i look around in global and try to find people who posts that are of interest to me)

2( i go into the perfil of a person that i follow and see what people that person follows)

3( sometimes re-posts from people that i follow of people that i don't follow appear on my feed if i find them of interest enough i follow those people)
