Welcome! What a fantastic picture š„°
We're glad to have you here!
If your android I can help you with any questions!
Welcome to nostr! š«š
ItāsĀ socialĀ š¬ meets freedomĀ and payments.
If your favorite social app had a child š£ with CashApp that had super powers...Thatās Nostr in a nutshell.
What sort of superpowers?
Glad you asked! How about...
Zaps and the power of lightning! ā”
Got a like? Nice. Got zapped for a comment?Ā Cha-ching!
Send money for content you enjoy with a single click š¤Æš„°
Love a meme? Zzzzappp! ā”
Learned something new? You guessed it, zap! š¤Æ
It'sĀ loveĀ in both directions šShare something of value? Boom! You get zapped back. š„¹
Youāre gonna luv it š„°
Or stick to likes š - that's cool. Payments are totally optional.
Itās not a single website or an app...
Say what now?
Yeah, itās all of it. Every app made on Nostr just makes the protocol grow bigger and stronger. Like aĀ raging hulk.
Nostr is like the new internet that connects any app on any platform as long as itās compatible with some very simpleĀ requirements.
Itās powerful š
When a new app plugs into the protocol, it automatically gains access to
ALL OF THE USERS.
Forget building an audience. Itās already here! Just be yourself! š„
Itās an entrepreneurās wet dream. Wait, am I allowed to say this? š
Nostr is a giant mythical octopus with huge tentacles, each capable of crushing multi-billion-dollar industries.
š¤ Music, š adult, š» creator economy are industries that are only theĀ tip of the iceberg.
Just the tip.
Thereās just one catch...
Nostr needs you!
Yes you, handsome developer āØļø, designer š±ļø, memer, couch potato š„, YouTuber, influencer, instagrammer (is that a word?), progressive, conservative, libertarian, mom, dad, son, daughter, hero, villain ...
Someone has to build the new empire.
... and enjoy the journey š
Will it be you?
Oh, I almost forgot to mention the boring stuff...Ā censorship resistance, not controlled by any one company (open source),Ā no emails to sign up, no overlords,Ā no de-platforming like tiktok, no shoving ads down your throat like FB...
Some call it a paradigm shift, we just call it another day on Nostr š¤·
Oh, and weāve got NIPs š²
(Nostr Implementation Possibilities)
Git yer mind outta the gutter, fren! šø
Thatās right, thereās more than one way to Nostr. In fact, the possibilities are only growing.
So, grab a client (app) and join the party! š
ThereāsĀ DamusĀ for iOS,Ā AmethystĀ for Android,Ā IrisĀ andĀ SnortĀ for web, andĀ many othersĀ too!
Please keep in mind: weāreĀ exploring a new digital frontier.Ā Things can feel a little rough around the edges.
Hope this gives you a good basic understanding of nostr and we're all looking g forward to your posts in the future!
