Nostr

I have a very similar goal and a service like Relay.tools has almost everything already to make groups on relays happen. And it works.

NIP-29, however, overcomplicates everything by not having a 1:1 relaytionship with the group and copy pasting big-tech UX (Telegram etc...) that doesn't make sense on Nostr. None of the current apps work or have a clear goal. So why would relay services bother?

More on this here: nostr:naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzp22rfmsktmgpk2rtan7zwu00zuzax5maq5dnsu5g3xxvqr2u3pd7qyt8wumn8ghj7mnfv4kzumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qq0wd5k6urvv4ch2etnw35k7mnnuquu5l

I might be Naive Nieling this, but I wasted a lot of time believing too much about the NIP-29 hype without checking its assumptions.

I agree. If relay.tools had better threading, in the viewer, I'd just use that. Even better, if I could see the three GC relays and Christpill as 4 sections in a forum-style client or something.

nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn is building exactly that

Would be a relief. I'm tired of all of the fancy encryption-admin stuff.

Just the feed, please.

PRs are open, there's a list of tasks in the readme, lemme know if you want to grab one

Are the issues a good place to start? I'm interested in helping to make the single-relay version a reality so I can use it with my dev team.

What is highest priority in that domain?

hodlbod 1y ago

Sweet! I've moved the to-do list to github issues: https://github.com/coracle-social/flotilla/issues

Feel free to grab any task marked "good first issue". There's also an issue for "single relay version": https://github.com/coracle-social/flotilla/issues/5

Thanks!

We were getting desperate and thinking about piping into Discord, or something, so it'd be nice to have a Nostr client.
