Nostr Web Client

Introducing Following._ — a simple way to create and share follow packs on Nostr!

Finding interesting people to follow has always been one of the biggest challenges for new users on Nostr. Even experienced users often struggle to discover new communities and voices.

Following._ makes it easy to curate lists of users and share them with anyone on the web. Whether you're helping newcomers get started or building a niche community, Following._ allows you to grow connections on Nostr.

You can create your own follow pack in minutes and share it anywhere. Here’s an example:

https://following.space/d/d27a91a4-6155-4089-b4de-377e24dde08d

I spent months complaining that someone should build this... and eventually realized that someone had to be me. So here we are.

I also leaned heavily on AI during the process — it’s never been easier (or more fun) to create apps for open platforms like Nostr. If you have an idea, you really can just build it. No gatekeepers, no permission needed. Just ship it.

Peace

jb55 8mo ago

calle could you make a NIP for it so the spec is clear?

calle 8mo ago

can do but in the mean time here is the spec

Makes a lot of sense to shift the old Lists NIP to encrypted lists only…

That way follower packs can be public lists and the old NIP list can be private lists.

Follower packs feels like a better name for public lists. It makes it known that they’re shareable more than the word public lists.

relay.nostr.band now let's you search through these events

HoloKat 8mo ago

Any tips for vibe coders to add this functionality? :)

brugeman 8mo ago

And to search through follow packs send nip50 requests (https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/50.md) to wss://relay.nostr.band like {"kinds":39089,"search":"bitcoin"}

brugeman 8mo ago

Pardon, it's {"kinds":[39089],"search":"bitcoin"}

Vincent 8mo ago

Does relay.nostr.band only store events directly written to it by clients, or does it also fetch events from other relays?

brugeman 8mo ago

It fetches from everywhere

calle 8mo ago

THIS EVENT DOESNT HAVE A DESCRIPTION! DESCRIPTION IS ALSO A FIELD!
