Nostr Web Client

based on what i've seen trying to index Nostr, there's tens of thousands of accounts on here, at the very least. someone used the phrase "if Nostr is successful" a bit earlier today, but i'd argue that tens of thousands of users, for such an immature product, is pretty damned good already.

I think there are about 2 million accounts based on a chart someone posted.

yeah, so, what i did was i wrote a program that listened in on relay.damus.io and ran it over the course of hours/days and each time it saw a user or any follow lists, it added those to an index. that relay doesn't represent the entire network and hours/days doesn't represent all users, but i think i got a pretty good idea of the most active parts of it.

the 90-9-1 rule says that for any service that's based on user content, 90% lurk, 9% contribute a little and 1% contribute the most.

if 2 million is the total user count, that gives 20k for the 1%, which roughly agrees with what i saw.

Do you know how I could get a list of ppl that have reported me? Amethyst has it as a feature.

i wouldn't know how to do that without making another tool that checks it.
