I renewed my Apple developer account to keep Nostore on the App Store for another year. However I am not a heavy Nostr user these days so I will likely not renew again next year.

If anyone is interested in forking it at some point, I would support that.

Curious, why dropping off from Nostr? What are your criticisms of it and/or how could it improve to retain you using it?

I only have so much room in my life for social media apps. Twitter takes up most of my SM brain power.

Unlike most Nostr users, I actually like having a server and an algorithm. My entire Nostr feed is just stuff about Bitcoin and Nostr. I don’t even know if there is anything else on Nostr. Algorithms show me a wider variety of content, and I don’t want everything to be done in the client.

I am not quitting Nostr, it just doesn’t command a large amount of my attention and I haven’t maintained the same passion for it as I did early

Fair enough! Hopefully, content discovery will become more refined over time.

you could follow hashtags to get other topics in your feed

This is a good tip. Maybe I will give it a shot

I do not support Twitter, but you make a good point about there being too much bitcoin pushing here.

This really depends who you follow. So put some work into that, your feed is at this moment really your own curated list of people with their content. It’s not information overload, it’s filter failure.

That’s too bad. Nostore has worked great for me.

Are there any issues or improvements with Nostore that you are aware of that you would have liked to address if you were still interested?

One thing that I always wanted to add, but never did, was that I wanted to move the key management and storage out of the browser part and two the native part.

But that’s really more of a nice to have. Honestly, the app is feature complete and in maintenance mode at this point.

Thanks for explaining! Would you be able to add an open source license to the GitHub repository? It’ll help whoever forks it.

Can you (1) provide a link to the git repo (2) add a license file to the repo to denote it as open source if that is your choice?

Im looking to open a bounty issue as Id like to see nip44 support for users
