🚨🚨 150K Sats bounty - Logo design for Nostr Reddit-clone PWA

With Reddit recently introducing API-fees, annoying many of their developers and communities, #nostr is well positioned for the next wave of migrants looking to escape the centralised control of Big Tech Social Media.

nostr:npub1alpha9l6f7kk08jxfdaxrpqqnd7vwcz6e6cvtattgexjhxr2vrcqk86dsn has been working on a nostr-based Reddit clone and is about to launch a Beta of his Progressive Web App which will work across all platforms - 🍎 can pound sand trying to take a cut!

The app will be hosted at https://www.nostr.kiwi

Nostriches love their flightless birds so hopefully you will all rally behind Kiwi and help get this project running!

I’m offering 150K Sats for the best logo design submitted by 23:59 GMT of Monday 26 June - approx 35 hours from now.

Simply comment your logo to this thread (512x512px) and Jingles will pick the winner. And please repost to help get this bounty out there for other designers to see and enter.

I love that weed and jesus are next to each other 😂

Fun fact, they're pretty certain the "anointing oils" they used were comprised of hemp

In the #nostr vision of the world where we can all participate, why shouldn’t they be 😂

Nice titbit too 🤙 My own interesting fact is apparently the yanks changed their spelling to tidbit because they were prudes. Don’t know if it’s true but I’m rolling with it 🤣

Well… in Hebrew the word used for the creation of the Anointing Oil and the incense is Kaneh - Bosem … it’s where the word Cannabis comes from.

Thanks for thinking of me. Don’t think I’ll have time today to take a crack at this, but if nothing works out by the deadline let me know.

I really liked the simplicity of your SNORT logo!

And yet it hasn’t been used yet… 🤔

It’s not the same with kiwi app we can extend the deadline if you’re keen. 🥰

Nice! Good timing too — will add it to tomorrow’s nostr:npub10eezfnlq4ad2lyf3478na8f5las4l7guuf55vs8378lwtk87hd7slf6zka issue. Might bring a few more candidates.

No responses yet so I’m getting the ball rolling with the easiest beat of all time.

If I have to zap myself 150k Sats for this 💩 then we might as well all go get blue checks and Reddit Gold!

😂

150k for the Reddit-like #Nostr client logo design. LFG!

You can just zap the winnings to me using this note to make it easy.

We’ve got an early contender folks! Guy’s pos is even better than mine nostr:note1sm8lps772f92e8zn4qrvzv9qu7hynv906yt225w96ldc227nwh4slukwjh

150k Sats up for grabs for a Nostr Kiwi logo, surely we can do better?

"pos?" 🤔

pinnacle of skill.

Ah, yes I see.

prized object of superiority?

Nostrit

Lol, but I actually like this unironically 🤣.

I think it embraces the pleb ethos. I would want just the head though for the logo.

Got a quick concept here. Hope this will be useful for someone to maybe develop the idea further. I’m obviously not experienced enough in creating logos.

Here is mine …. Nostrich Oragami #nostr #reddit #logo @cyborg #satoshi #[2]

Origami (折り紙, Japanese pronunciation: [oɾiɡami] or [oɾiꜜɡami], from ori meaning "folding", and kami meaning "paper" (kami changes to gami due to rendaku)) is the Japanese art of paper folding. #[3]​ #[2]​ #[4]​ #nostr #reddit #oragami #logo #design #japanese

Thoughts?

Also, may we submit various entries or one per nostrich?

I say submit away and ask forgiveness later. i mean who would really be mad about more options? 😂

Design tip: Make sure your image ‘works’ (meaning is readable and recognizable and aesthetically pleasing) in a range of sizes from LARGE to tiny. For example example If you look at many Twitter profile images you’ll notice they are unrecognizable until viewed at a larger size.

That’s great advice. Thank you 🙏

Yes mate, no issue with multiple submissions. I think we’ll extend the deadline a bit too

Thanks for the zap 🫂⚡️

My submission. 😁 Can we submit more than one?

Thank you those who have submitted.

Logo will be used as the Home Screen icon on mobile phones, when you add app to Home Screen, for both iOS and android.

Read this, this are a useful tips nostr:note1ywazcm3y24468qzexqgmn6qts3qgaw3u6r2xzt3kqnhzdejqjhfq7809dk

My dump of logo suggestions :-D

A logo that integrates the Kiwi bird with multiple speech balloons. A very minimal option.

These are my favorites 😉 Fantastic job.

I like this one, not just a mascot, but symbolic too.

Another kiwi-speech-balloon

This one is very nice 💜

Do you think you could try to come up with something space-birdish?

That would combine the familiar alien-space-like logo of Reddit and the ostrich obsession of nostriches 😄

Here’s what midjourney and a bit of photoshop got me.. obviously not a logo material, but some food for thought.

I really like the talking bubble kiwi though.

Sure! I’ll try. If the app is called Kiwi it’s a bit weird though. I might personally prefer a space-kiwi then.

Is the name decided upon yet, nostr:npub1alpha9l6f7kk08jxfdaxrpqqnd7vwcz6e6cvtattgexjhxr2vrcqk86dsn ?

Kiwi is just a domain zone like .com

However having a kiwi or a space kiwi is a nice choice imo — it’s still a bird, so somewhat related to the symbol of Nostr. Seems like the way to go.

Yup names are still open. Currently the name is the domain. Any cool names the community have come up with?

Not that I know of, but Kiwi is a cool bird + you’ll have all the New Zealand guys jump right in 😄

Nostorum

This is purple will look awesome

Didn't feel good about the first kiwi design I made, so I made a new one in my post's 3rd reply.

"Did you Nost it?"

"Yeah, it's Nostid."

Nostid.com 😂
