Nostr Web Client

The common complaint I see on Nostr is that we only talk about #bitcoin. I disagree. You can type into search just about any subject and find people talking about it, a hashtag dedicated to it, or even a group you can join within the Nostr community.

#Nostr doesn't spoon feed you propaganda, and it doesn't listen in on your conversations to populate currated ad content. If you want something, you go find it. If it doesn't exist, why not start it.

Good afternoon plebs.

I came to Nostr out of curiosity. A video I watched mentioned there was a lot of talk about #bitcoin. I didn't have any but came anyway. I have found many users posting about other things. I am a #pickleball fan (hence my handle) and haven't found much in the way of pickleball postings but I think eventually that will change. Anyway, I have enjoyed my brief time on Nostr and plan to stick with it.

nostr:npub17nvfw7g53nxjghyd2zg552z06cke0jc0k69hj7ns7f9pw26j9kusap4u85 likes pickleball. I don't know what client you use but #amethyst lets you search keywords and I was able to find a bunch of yall lol. I've never played but as much as you guys evangelize it, i might have to try it 😅

Thanks for the info. I will follow you both. So far I have just been using web clients. I am an android user so may have to give #amethyst a try. Yes, give #pickleball a try. I have found it to be a welcoming community with lots of people willing to help newcomers. Kind of like #Nostr.

I think a lot of clients used to offer a limited set of initial users to follow or auto followed some accounts. That’s why the content seemed to be very bitcoin/nostr focused. Glad to hear that this has improved.

I can see where that would be helpful for some new users. You could always unfollow if you didn't like their content. I figure if someone takes the time to react to something I have posted then why not follow them.

Also nostr:npub10chlkc62tk7yr5m9qjc2u7rs3ufhhrq8yukeey0c5lysqkp2gumq93mnex is a pickleballer at heart

Tennis Maxi.

I do like to help the elderly to the pickleball courts though. It’s usually my good deed for the week.

Then I start banging some 100mph serves a few courts down.

Nice. I'm over 65 so I might be considered as someone you would help. We have a gentleman who is 83 and plays a few times per week. Where I play indoors it is open to #pickleball 8 a.m. to noon so most of us are retired but we have a few younger people who join us often. We enjoy the game and each others company.
