Nostr Talks: nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn on Christianity, Relay commoditization, and Subreddit-like things on Nostr

I got a chance to catch up with Hodlbod, one of the original client developers on Nostr. We started by talking about how he sees his work on Nostr through the lens of Christianity (and his new podcast Thank God For Nostr which goes deeper on that). We also went deeper to discuss how much relay selection should be visible to users and how relay commoditization and competition might work in the future. Finally we did a deep brainstorm around relays and how they could fit into a Subreddit-like/Zine-like thing on Nostr.

Had a great time chatting with you as always!

Always a fun time! 🤙 Really loved this one.

How’s the new pod going?

Nice. Excite to see this.

Great pod, hoping the audio quality can improve though!

tell me more. both mics? the mix?

Great podcast! Loved the sections on relay selection and subreddits (btw nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn & nostr:npub1kuy0wwf0tzzqvgfv8zpw0vaupkds3430jhapwrgfjyn7ecnhpe0qj9kdj8 other reddit-like clients are nostr.kiwi and satellite.earth ).

Methods for (Specialized) Relay selection is likely something that a nostr-native decentralized wiki/knowledgebase could take advantage of. Lots of learning to do - super excited. Need to keep the conversation going on relay selection
