I want to collect a list of npubs curated for a specific friend of mine and then send that friend an invite link to a nostr app which pre-populates their follow list with the npubs I hand picked for them.

Is there a way to do this nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 ? #asknostr

It would also be pretty cool to be able to designate a few npubs as “guides” for the new nostrich.

If I were to be selected as a guide for someone else I would want to be able turn on notifications which alert me to when the new nostrich notes something so I can engage with them.

Seems like there’s a lot of untapped potential in using the web of trust to onboard and purple pill friends of friends.

Many people have had variants of these ideas, but it takes code to implement and no one has done it in a compelling way so far.

I feel like something like https://nosta.me/ could do that. Perform the onboarding flow and then guide the user to a new client.

What do you think, nostr:npub10000003zmk89narqpczy4ff6rnuht2wu05na7kpnh3mak7z2tqzsv8vwqk?

Coracle already offers this possibility, and it works well:

But I agree that something like nosta.me, with a good onboarding wizard, could be the ideal path: as soon the metadata, the contact lists and NIP-65 relays set have been broadcasted, the user is immediately free to test more clients (even if only in read mode) and have get a taste of the great interoperability of Nostr.

yea that would be cool to get a new user to try several disparate clients right away. the curated list of follows is super useful to crafting a compelling first impression for someone you know well.

🔜, but I think it would be easier to simply drop someone into someone elses feed and they could create their account from them as a template.

Like this?

This is integrated into onboarding too. If someone follows that link and isn't logged in, they'll go through the onboarding process and then be redirected to your invite page.

You can create your own invite link by clicking your profile picture, then "create invite"
