I am very excited to finally announce the opening of Henhouse - the first women-only community on Nostr!

Henhouse is built on nostr:npub10qdp2fc9ta6vraczxrcs8prqnv69fru2k6s2dj48gqjcylulmtjsg9arpj, and allows users to enjoy all the freedom of Nostr and the benefits of a decentralized and censorship-resistant platform while connecting in a space made just for us.

After running Spinster, the largest women’s server on the Fediverse, for 5 years β€” I have learned a lot from the mistakes of that platform. Nostr provides solutions, and I believe it is the future of decentralized social media.

LFG πŸŽ‰πŸš€πŸ”₯❀️

And also, congrats!! πŸ«‚β€οΈ

Thank you!! 😊 πŸ’œ

Henhouse offers three ways to enjoy #Nostr:

1. Your Home feed (everyone you follow, same as any other client)

2. Henhouse local feed (only other approved Henhouse users, women-only)

3. Global feed (literally everything)

Women of Nostr: Try it out today by reserving your NIP-05 username at henhouse.social!

very cool!

Legit question: how do you determine that the user is a women and not some AI generated image with a dude behind?

We don't, but since it's an open network where all content is public anyway, there's limited safety/privacy concerns with infiltration like other women-only spaces. Ultimately if they are behaving in a woman-friendly way and not causing problems, they can probably get away with it. That's the trade-off of being more open and protecting user privacy.

If it becomes a problem we may have to be stricter with pre-vetting prior to NIP-05 approval, but for now this is the policy:

how technically hard was it to setup a ditto instance like this?

Easy when your husband is the dev πŸ˜‚πŸ™ˆ

was this a technically difficult thing to setup? what a cool way go segment different interaction mediums on nostr.

Sexist

Could you imagine men creating a men focused app?

They’d all be labeled white supremicists who hate women.

You know, maybe they just don’t want you in the fucking boyscouts.

Exciting ✨✨✨

damnit now there are two places on the internet I can't go lol

Congratulations on all your commitment. I hope that everything that was planned will be higher than your expectations! There’s a long way to go, but as long as you’re focused on transforming and innovating, it can work well!πŸ—½πŸΉπŸŽ―

Girl Power! Excited to have a space just for ladies to talk about our bits 🀣

Very inspiring

Curiosity speaking how do you prevent men from joining ?

Nice initiative. Good for #Nostr. Good for better communication.

How would you actually confirm that everybody is a woman there? Just curious.

I've joined on web and really love the look and feel, perfect for sharing photos as they come out large. Do I have to use henhouse nip5 in order to take part in the community feed? Will it change my nip5 in other clients?

You can still respond on the local feed, but if you want your posts to show up there for others to see then you need to use a henhouse NIP-05: https://henhouse.social/settings/identity

You can own multiple NIP-05 ids, but only one can be applied to your profile at once, so yes it will also change it on other clients.

ps. Welcome! πŸ‘‹

Ooh that would have been a deal breaker but then I remembered npubs are unlimited 🀘 is this the way all ditto moderation will work? Via nip5 identity?

Yup, exactly!

This is pretty huge!

How do you verify sex?

We don't, but since it's an open network where all content is public anyway, there's limited safety/privacy concerns like other women-only spaces.

If it becomes a problem we may have to be stricter with pre-vetting prior to NIP-05 approval, but for now this is the policy:

best of luck with your network fork.

Very cool; congrats!

I feel like the corresponding men only server should have to be called, "6 AM Cock Awakening"

hell ya

Cool. Very cool. Best of luck!

So Ditto federates to NOSTR? I'm liking that! Seems like a killer feature for me. Same privacy control as NOSTR?

Ditto is on Nostr but federates to the Fediverse via nostr:npub1d03clrrrma7mlpxm0mz2dehmhkx3nh9rhxqwltgctpwyduztymustepzfs, and also implements Mastodon API for app compatibility.

,

Under the hood, it's the same as Nostr with some Mastodon-flavored bells and whistles. You own your keys, etc.
