The #nostr twitter clones are going quite well. What I have always wanted to see is a facebook clone. Real people, with real friends. Privacy, friend requests, apps, games, payments, marketplaces. #ditto might be the best place to start.

Thank you for tolerating my network outages.
Ha! Hope I didnt cause them! Posting from my own #ditto instance right now.
Good! Nope I've just been having problems with my setup, needing to reboot stuff. Self-hosting is the best.
I thought I was a real person 🤪
Zuck credits the secret to their success, in making people have a real identity. And providing a first name and a last name. While nostr will always have a public sqaure for anonymous IDs. There's something to be said for interacting with people and communties that you know, while having the freedom to control who sees what.
I see. Very doable I imagine.
Facebook v1 soured me to that whole centralized experience and I stopped using it in 2016, but as a user, I would probably give it another try here.
