Nostr, I hardly knew her.

Seriously though, I’m using nostr via the Damus app. Honestly, I find this platform difficult to follow and use. I’m going to try better to learn and use this platform, because I’m extremely tired of all the other platforms right now. Wish me luck (Pro-tips are welcome)

Hey👋

It gets better the more people you follow. Maybe check out hashtags like #grownostr #plebchain #foodstr etc.

#asknostr for any questions you have. You'll find someone to help out.

Welcome 🫂

Cool, thanks for the tip.

True, the lack of feed is a big part. I’m used to just seeing a full feed when I open twitter or whatever.

You can get the same effect by following a few hashtags.

Here's a list of popular ones: https://letsnostr.com/topics

Follow more people.

What exactly seems difficult for you on nostr ?

Maybe not to much difficult but rather difficult to get used to the way (for example) comment threads work. I find the the order of the thread strange. Again, something I’ll get used to when I make a better effort to stick around. Thanks for the question. 🐺

Yep. It's a bit disturbing at first, but each client is a bit different and it's something you may get use to over time, don't give up

Try to set up a lightning address too to have more fun 😉

Pro tip. It's not a platform.

Pro tip, nostr is much more than just social media and damus. Branch out.

You have to follow more, my dear pleb. While you’re following more people & hashtags, your feed starts to grow. Don’t forget that you can always unfollow them if you don’t want to see them anymore.

Agree it's not the easiest... We all need to encourage more client & relay development.

post anything you like, youll never be banned, but if you wanna post about b!tc0in bluesky is a place for that, anyway i hope you stick around

1) check out any hashtags you might be interested in. We often add -str to a hashtag, so memestr artstr dadstr dogstr catstr will be surprisingly full.

2) up those two follows to like a hundred or three😅

3) find someone you like and join all their relays, take their follows or people in comments, nostr won't offer you anything

4) welcome🤍

I'm using #primal right now, works great!
