30 years ago almost to the day, I downloaded Linux over a 9.6k dial up modem and miraculously succeeded in installing a functioning os on my x486.

Then I sat there.

The cursor blinked at me.

I blinked back.

What now?

I’m kind of at the point with nostr, what’s possible and how can I learn more? How can I find interesting people?

Are there resources, how tos etc posted anywhere?

I seem to remover seeing a regular update with resources posted to the feed a couple months ago but I don’t know how to find it and the Damus search function doesn’t do much yet.

Just a noob blinking at the cursor.

Below link is a nice list to see whats all out there

Primal and snort are great for finding people

But just talking on subjects that intrest you will plenty of times cause a interaction with like minded people

Hope it helps

I also remember the days of downloading Slackware Linux over a dialup modem, writing it to many floppy disks and hoping that none were corrupted so that it would successfully install on a 486! Nostr does bring back memories of those times.

I have a list of some Nostr projects and resources that you might find useful - https://www.austrich.net/nostr/

I was a Slackware guy back then, too 😉

I even managed to get Xwindow + Netcape running.

X was a bit of a challenge to get running back then, from memory you had to have the X server with the right driver for the card you were using and then find the right combination of sync and refresh parameters to work with the CRT monitors.
