#damus booth was like #plebchain IRL the entire conference. What an incredible experience, nice meeting y’all!

I learned a lot! My biggest takeaway:

We need better onboarding in-app. 90% of people I talked to who created an account never set up a lightning address, never experience getting paid for posts, never follow people, etc. will fix this by including a “finish setting up damus” with red notification dot breadcrumbs for pfps, wallet attach, first post, follow, etc.

Learning this on the ground was invaluable. Overall people just seemed excited for the future of nostr. Talking to #plebchain irl was a nice contrast for the otherwise influensoor-heavy flavour of the conference. #nostr is starting to feel like a serious pleb renaissance: Just real people stacking sats and shitposting, no influencer algos, drama or popularity contests. Fucking grateful to be a part of this. Let’s keep growing nostr to show how powerful this community really is.

Back to building!
