Someone need to make onboarding process documented and simple.
I am still struggling to figure out how it works.
Which is the best app.
Discussion
It’s all very personal which is the best app. Just try some of the bigger ones and decide for yourself. That’s the beauty: it’s up to you!
Do different realys have different content?
The content your seeing indeed depends on which relays you are connected to and to which relays other people are connected to.
It can be helpful to include some larger (paid) relays to see less spam and more value.
Whats the recommended relays for beginers
Welcome!
Start off with this https://nostr.how/en/get-started
Are you on Damus?
No i don't have ios device
Amethyst? What are you using?
amethyst
Ok. I personally haven’t tried amethyst (my old android won’t support it).
What’s the most confusing step? What questions going through your mind?
I’ll redesign onboarding. Maybe it can be implemented!
Most difficult is to reach right client. I installed 3 different clients than reach this one.
There is no way to figure which of these are trustworthy
The confusion is around hiw to use and what to use.
Features can be nect step once user able to figure out whats to trust and how to start.
I see. Maybe we need a step to recommend a client first. What’s your concern with trust? What do you mean by “if they are trustworthy” ?
my concern is that are these clients doing mining on my device
Do they save my private key correctly
Do they track my location contact details
I see, Ty. This is a very specific set or concerns. Seems to be in line with your name “cybersecurity hero”.
All valid concerns for sure but I wonder if majority of people share them 🤔
I think it’s still nice to address some of your concerns on the main nostr website.
The store apps already list some of these things (no info collected) but I suppose they could do a bit more than that. Show actual area to expand to see how the app functions.
Do you have any ideas how else your concerns could be addressed?
Thanks for the feedback! Bookmarking for later review!
There should be atleast one client which is recommended
there should be atleast one relay which talks about how to of nostr
How to search
How to follow
How / where did you find a list of clients to try?
I searched on google. To be completly new to this i reached out one git page which said use this client nostros. but that wasn't on store
Post that i used that and started questioning here.
Took long to figure out that i need to add a relay to start with.
Now figuring out what different realts are there.
And which one i might like.
Thank you! I’ll review our conversation when I’m home.
Mean while i penned down simple process as per our conversation here
