Nostr Web Client

Shawn 5mo ago 💬 27

If you've:

1. Been here a while

2. Deleted your Twitter account, say, > 6 months ago

3. Feel like nostr is stagnant or dying

I recommend the following:

1. Visit X.

2. Scroll any thread for 30 seconds are more. Pick one at random.

3. Close X.

4. Take 5 deep, cleansing breaths.

5. Open your nostr client of choice.

6. Smile and rejoice.

"I will keep posting even if I'm the only one." is the nostr equivalent of "I will buy Bitcoin at $0.01."

My husband goes on Twitter at times, and that's enough exposure for me to be thrilled to be on Nostr, and not X.

I've never taken back an ex, and I'm not about to start with X 🤣 (I do use grok though, but I never check the X feed)

*chef's kiss* This is the start of a nostr ad campaign.

I'm with you. I use grok, too.

AnnSofiNovelist 5mo ago

Hah, yes,

"If you feel icky after scrolling through X, and want a healthier and more positive social media experience, consider joining Nostr, the decentralized social media network where you are your own algorithm."

And then add something about, "you'll never wanna go back to your Ex X" 🤣

There’s a grok app. I use it and no longer have X.

I can appreciate Nostr's value and also understand that user growth is stagnant and/or on a decline. App development is off the charts though. I'm working hard to bring the two together. More ideas. More apps. More freedom. More user choices.

Shawn 5mo ago

I don't think more apps is the solution to the most pressing challenges. Better UX and QA are.

But I do think that more experimentation is better. And more Derek is definitely better. 🫂

Derek Ross 5mo ago

I'm hoping more apps adds to more experiences and more interoperability. And yes I agree absolutely, we need much better UX and more stable apps. The concept of Nostr is cool and understandable by many, but in practice the apps have to be able to compete on stability and usability or no one is going to use them after the honeymoon phase.

I would recommend focusing on the onboarding process. Various clients and two different long strings of gibberish keys is a lot for a standard user to take in all at once. I know some other people have discussed follow groups and I think that's a great idea.

Less people is a feature

X is way more dead and fake than it used to be.

Never felt that nostr was dying. People who think that way are just boring imo.

I've never had a Twitter account at all, nor will I be getting one.

Twitter is a blackmailing honeypot nowadays, and always was (heck, even nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqyehwumn8ghj7mnhvvh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7ctewe4xcetfd3khsvrpdsmk5vnsw96rydr3v4jrz73hvyu8xqpqsg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q8dzj6n ran it for a while, though middle management under him destroyed his chances of improving things).
