Special thanks to nostr:npub1yaul8k059377u9lsu67de7y637w4jtgeuwcmh5n7788l6xnlnrgs3tvjmf nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft nostr:npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc and nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 for their invaluable guidance during my 3-month journey working on POWR. Their support has been essential.
POWR isn't close to what I hope it’ll become (yet), but as Pablo wisely told me: ship early! Look for the TestFlight and Zapstore release early next week, but please have patience with the release and updates… I’m a Nostr enthusiast, not a dev, and working full time as a physician.
Devs: I'd love your feedback on my NIP proposal for workout event kinds, and if you’d like to contribute please reach out!
POWR On! 💪

Not released yet. I’ll share the TestFlight and Zapstore links soon.
Awesome. I like te idea of Strava, but dislike the privacy implications. This looks like a viable alternative.
Well pretty much everything you post on a public relay is available, but I’m not planning on kyc-ing any users. Also will hopefully figure out a way to store workouts encrypted eventually so you can backup your health and fitness data privately.
Just let people specify their relay and they can use their own relay for the stuff they want very private.
So private relay > encryption on public relay?
Definitely simpler. I think for POWR it makes perfect sense 😅
How do you stop the constant urge to overcomplicate things?
Reflecting on the fact that everything is 10x harder and takes 100x longer than you’d think
Then the simpler, pragmatic solution becomes all the more attractive.
Almost always the simple solution was the right one all along; just look at nostr vs web3 or DID Rube Goldberg machines
But it’ll never scale! 😭 and how can I make sure my ID is unique and no one is impersonating me?! And who will build the roads?!
