Nostr Web Client

Is it like a chatroom or something?

I'm slowly realizing that very few here now what Instagram stories are 🤦.

It's a way to share pictures, videos, quotes, ... It has a super easy tool built in to put text, buttons, polls, etc on that background. They typically have an expiration date (but don't have to) You can make just one or "chain" multiple in a sort of story Users swipe through the stories of the people they follow, they can comment, like and quote them in their own stories.

Anyway, I see great potential in a html meets Nostr version of all that, as an awesome tool for creators.

not trying to be a dick here but i think if people wanna post stories they go to instagram, nostr need to have something original that no other social media already have, or else nostr is just gonna be another bollywood of hollywood

Nostr has the ability to own your own story.

its cool and all but people are still gonna go to instagram

I don't care about the people that will go to Instagram anyway.

I care about Nostr being awesome for me and the early adopting creators on here.

Onboarding normies is a byproduct of that.

Stories as mini-html pages is 🔥, I need it and will make it happen,

Laeserin 1y ago

I like the idea. Little topic-pages.

If you hadn't said Instragram had it, we would have thought you'd just magicked it up. LOL We're clueless.

Niel Liesmons 1y ago

Magicking things up is and always will be just combining existing stuff in cool ways.

In this case: Instagram meets Hypernotes.

I used Highlighter this morning, agian. It's a real construction site, but I got it working without producing 15 copies and the note came out well, so I chalk it up as a success. 😅

I'm so excited for it to move forward. I was so afraid that it would be put out to pasture.

I actually have a really clever idea for a Highlighter version 3, but I'm going to wait until 2 is over and you finish Hypernotes. Don't want to drive everyone nuts with ideas and clog up the pipeline.

Do you think it would eventually be possible to use Highlighter instead of Primal? As a main client?

Niel Liesmons 1y ago

Yup!

Laeserin 1y ago

👀

So, a client for people who can name 10 books?

Niel Liesmons 1y ago

And a client for people who write those books and wanna keep doing that ⚡

Laeserin 1y ago

I call this work, Highlighter saving damsel in distress from the horrors of Primal.

If the reading feed is too busy and distracting, with moving objects or lots of pictures, then it won't work as a reader.
