Nostr Web Client

Yes. Descriptive tags for relays - country, language, moderation policy, fee structure, community served (if any), then someone will build tools that make it easy for people to find their people.

We do not all need to be connected to everyone. We need to quickly connect with "our group", and after that, if we realise we need to go further, e.g. read a paper, search their pubkey, if if no relays in common, see a selection to join.

I think that’s sad.

The Internet can connect all humans on Earth. It was supposed to.

Yet we keep looking for ways to be live in our tiny little echo chambers.

If people have to go out of their way to hear from those outside their circle they won’t.

And if they see all info filtered by a group — that group will eventually use that fact against them.

Instead of finding solutions we keep inventing new ways of reproducing the same old problems.

The Internet can. The Internet does. But individual people do not have the bandwidth to do more than choose which small parts appeal to them. And that is totally their right.

Nostr (and the Internet) enables, but cannot force.

I grew up when international communication was a pen pal. It's better now. Or is it? the ROI in my case was a wife, a friend of one the people I wrote to :-)
