Nostr Web Client

I just pushed a whole load of changes to https://www.inmytown.social/ (my Meetups on NOSTR app)

It now uses NIP-52 time based calendar and RSVP events, alongside some unofficial kinds for creating and following meetup communities.

If you were one of the small number of people that had created a community already then you'll need to update the community for it to display correctly, and existing meetup events will no longer show (AFAIK they had all passed the event date anyway)

I've added a breakdown of the event kinds to github here: https://github.com/BrightonBTC/inmytown.social/blob/main/README.md and suppose I'll formalise this in to a NIP proposal at some point soon too.

I'd love your feedback 🙏🏻

but for now it's time to get way from the screen for a while!

Pura Vida!

Why aren’t you using the same events / spec for moderated communities? https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/72.md

Btw, I’m super excited about this. I started the website protest.net in 1998! It was one of the first SaaS social events calendar sites. Unfortunately it’s been kind of broken for the last 20 years. ;-D. I’ve been wanting to replace protest.net with a decentralized network, built on nostr now.

There’s the ok, but not world changing, Mobilizon which runs using ActivityPub, joinmobilizon.org. It doesn’t have the network effect and ability to reuse your social graph in various apps.

Yeah, I think you're right, I should just be using NIP-72 for the communities 🙏
