Nostr Web Client

Yeah Nostr is still over the average person's head.

I just realized while trying to log in on a computer why the Damus app wouldn't let me post. There was nothing anywhere in that app explaining that because I had used the public key I couldn't post (it DOES make sense after knowing that that's why but I wasn't given this info on that client.)

Now I'm trying to understand what I need to do in order to use it on my phone & it looks like a 20 step process???

There's so much barrier to entry it means this will be an echo chamber if that doesn't change / become simpler & clearer.

ARE there any other iphone apps (even if they are testflight stage, just curious because I AM keeping tabs on the entire social media landscape as major changes unfold.)

To give a direct answer to your question:

Plebstr: https://plebstr.com/

Nostur (a bit rough around the edges): https://nostur.com/

As to getting started, it does take slightly more effort than many social networks, due to the nature of the platform (true censorship resistance comes with some unique challenges) and because we don’t have full UX design teams working fulltime on the clients like the big names do. That being said, it is getting easier.

This website gives excellent guides on getting started with a few clients: https://nostr.com/

I can also say that the #Damus team is working very hard on improving the onboarding experience right this minute.
