Both terrible 😂 saying this with love. 💕

Rather Nostury, sounds like Mistery, otherwise it’s like Asterix the warrior, but it could stay like it is…

It’s tough renaming your baby. Your passion project you have been so humbly and methodically devoted to. I do not envy your decision. 😂

Nostrixó

Nostur sounds way better than both of those, unfortunately. Hopefully you'll find a better one

Nostuary = nostr + sanctuary

NosTrain

NoStraw

NoStretto

NoStrophic

I dont know about any nostr- combos.

nostr:npub1n0sturny6w9zn2wwexju3m6asu7zh7jnv2jt2kx6tlmfhs7thq0qnflahe how about “Stretto”

Alludes to interoperability, and “an ending climax” 🤠

tretto

/ˈstrɛtəʊ/

noun

(music) The presence of two close or overlapping statements of the subject of a fugue, especially towards the end.

(music) An acceleration in the tempo of an opera that produces an ending climax.

What about Nostrix --- like nostr + unix

# Client Naming Conventions

Client names MUST NOT include the strings "nos" or "str".

I would go for a total rebrand and drop the "nos" and the "str". They make the name difficult to pronounce and even harder to search for

Unfortunately I don't have any ideas for you. But looking through a dictionary is how I found "strudel" for nostrudel

Both terrible IMO, keep Nostur

Not really a fan of either. What about Nostour?

Either way tough job, love the client my man.

Nosturdy

Rutson

My goodness. Please none of those names.

I would recommend NOSTRUM. Which means our in Latin.

Just wanted to start by saying how much I love your client—seriously, you’re an amazing dev, and it’s a privilege to use Nostur. It’s my favorite iOS client and my daily-driver.

Personally though, I’d rather you keep it as Nostur for now rather than another Nos related name. Change the name when you’re ready for a rebranding/design sprint down the road. I think it’d be pretty exciting to release all that at once.

Regrading names: The reason I’m a die-hard Nostur fan is because it’s always got the latest features, it’s fast, and reliable. You’ve kept it true to being a nimble open-source client and have been connected to the broader Nostr ecosystem. You were the first (and for the most part still only) iOS dev to incorporate features like NIP-23, Nests, zap.stream, lists, etc etc. Nostur kind of reminds me of a root, vine, or nerve (or maybe an octopus?)—fluid, has the potential to grow in any direction, able to move and transform in its environment and absorb important “nutrients” from its surroundings.

Things that come to mind for me are: Tendril, Rhizome (or Rizome), Synapse, Dendrite, Dendryx. Some Octopus related ones could be tako, polpo, kraken.

Anyway, feel free to ignore my mostly unsolicited advice. You’re doing fucking awesome job with the client and you’ve got some extremely loyal users. Don’t stop!

It's short and simple.

And there is a hidden message included 😎🤙!

Nostro - Italian for our/ours

Nosturix sounds nice.

I kinda like the flavor that "y" gives off but the "u" in it weighs it down, imo. I think a simple Nostry could be good.

Ignoring my going with neither option, I like Nostury better I think. Nosturix is too many consonants and too harsh sounding. Nostry feels light and welcoming for some reason.

nosturix Asterix fans ✔️

i vote for nostury because theres an x in nosturix, id rather not have xs like simpleX for the name makes it feel like an alternative twitterx app

NoCentral

Nostir?

Nosturix sounds too “domanatrix” like. I always chuckle when someone brands something “-rix or -trix”. Maybe it’s my dirty mind? lol

Hi Fabian, I’ve been noticing that Nostur seems to take a lot longer than other apps (Damus, Nostrmo, Primal) to load new events (sometimes 10+ secs) if I haven’t been on the app for a while. Any ideas why this happens? Is it worth reinstalling, or is this expected behaviour?
