I want to see more ambitious projects on Nostr
Discussion
I’m feeling pretty ambitious about Haven for Mac 💪
Drivestr and Ridestr are quite ambitious sir.
How will they get more than 10 users? Genuinely curious
On it:
Trying to compete against ICANN-DNS.
Trying to compete against Steam +.
When my plate empties:
Will try to compete against Google Ads.
Will try to compete against Cloudflare CDN.
Wanted to zap this Ser, something not working.
That is ambitious indeed. What's the plan to make millions use it?
Hm... got people who zap me fine, my LN custodian on this npub is on coinos, i guess it didn't find a route? (or coinos is busted at this time?)
Plan for ICANN-DNS: Attack on all fronts:
- Daemon a user can install
- Browser extension
- Custom forks of existing browsers to add support for it
- Start contacting to have multiple nostr clients utilize it (since that is its second use, a proper nip-05, user relay discovery, and the reintroduction of username/password evolved)
- Create a bunch of buzz (marketing effort)
- Start contacting multiple bitcoin wallets to utilize it (I realized this week that my solution (DNN) inadvertently solved a particular issue with bitcoin)
- Start contacting teams that develop linux distros to add resolves to it by default in their packages, since linux adoption is rising (I'd say linux would hit 20% to 30% of the market by 2050 from my guess)
- Start contacting the Brave team (Brave browser) to have them implement support for it in their browser to resolve it (aside from them finding it interesting and beneficial to their users, since said team likes freedom/privacy/ownership/etc, I'd also be presenting them with points to their benefits that would take take users from other browser to them = increasing their rates of browser dominance)
- Assuming success so far, millions (hundreds of millions) of users now has access to freedom domains, and because of the two points above, it'll trigger market-competitive dynamics, resulting in a domino effect of adoption/implementations in other browsers and OSs
Basically the proper actual success for DNN, in regards to adoption, is with the Brave route as the first rank, and Linux distros route coming in second.
I have a gut feeling coinos will rug me at any moment. Working terribly as of late.
Love the plan. An insignificant amount of people will install the browser extension or daemon. If the tech is more or less sound, marketing is what should take the most effort. (Brave, Linux distros, integration is part of it too)
What pushbacks are you expecting from them?
i'm not following, is there a consensus on "fixing DNS" in the nostr-sphere?
