Hi, I'm new here!
Is this the right Nostr place - decentralized social media app?
Asking because I couldn't find an actual Nostr app.
Secondly, this looks exactly like Twitter/X. What's new or different besides decentralization?
Thanks in advance!

These are some of the nostr apps. https://nostrapps.com/

Every app on nostrapps.com is a Nostr app. Just like email clients and web browsers, they all use protocols, Nostr is no different. Welcome.
that nostr is a protocol and decentralized.
with that said, the next app could be a decentralized discord built on nostr protocol, or a telegram built on nostr protocol or why not an Instagram built on nostr protocol.
What's new? Two big things are: No adds, no algorithm. You only get who you chose to follow / engage
Welcome. You're definitely in the right place.
And decentralized and uncensorable is the feature.
Dont spend your time and energy building relationships on an app that can be taken from you by the stroke of a key just because you said something someone doesn't like.

Hello and welcome, not sure what app you are on but it’s working on the nostr protocol so yes it’s the right one. There are tons of different apps that run on nostr and new ones coming out all the time, play around with it, post notes of stuff you like, follow people that post cool stuff, and don’t be shy. Enjoy. 😊
that I can zap you, bitch. 😇 get your wallet in order.
Welcome
Welcome to the party! You are in the right place.
You are interacting with #Nostr through a particular client that happens to look a lot like Twitter. There are other clients that look more like Reddit, or that look like a podcast player, or music streaming service... They're all Nostr clients, though, and you can log into all of them with your private key, though we would recommend using an app like #Amber on Android, or a browser extension for web apps. You should avoid putting your private key itself into every app you come across.
Some clients include a marketplace, others include live-streaming, and others are for audio chatting. There are a MASSIVE number of different types of apps and experiences, and you'll want to explore.

Do not underestimate the power of a decentralized network. It's a small difference with huge implications.
