Nostr Web Client

The problem with academic studies is they always want to research the most boring and least significant thing imaginable, "misinformation" 😞

The power of NOSTR with its keypair instead of accounts and running across decentralised, self hosted relays, and zaps, none of that's interesting at all 😂 😂 😂

Lemmy is also ActivityPub-based and the original call was on Mastodon, so that may explain the connection :).

I mentioned what I could about Nostr given the scope of the interview. One way or another, if Nostr makes it into a study with key phrases like decentralised social media, it could attract further interest from researchers in Information Systems, Computer Science, and related fields. Or not 🤣... But I might just be on the weird side that actually enjoys contributing to this kind of thing.

I would love to contribute if it was an open discussion where they could actually listen to what I was saying and the direction I was taking them in, instead of asking me closed, irrelevant questions.

Not sure if giving details about the process helps, but my interview was a mix of directed questions (it is a study with a defined scope after all), along with plenty of time and leeway to elaborate on my thoughts. I was also asked if I had anything to add, and we ended with a more unstructured conversation where I mostly spoke about Nostr. Not exactly a Nostr Podcast / Conference environment or a free for all conversation. But it wasn't bad either.
