The original source nostr.io/stats has this message on their site “nostr.io began by collecting all events, regardless of kind, and derived statistics from that dataset. due to the wild success of nostr, this is no longer a trivial task. nostr.io is now focusing on profiles, relays, and follows, with the mission of collecting and making them available quickly via REST API.”

The NostReport team has found this new reference stats, and it is quite good 🤙.

New Damus TestFlight build was released with tons of new features, including the long-awaited ability to Zap individual notes. Other features include a relay selector in global feed, nsec password manager support, DeepL translation support, and more. Check out Version 1.1.0's features here #[3] and

#[5] tells us why the adoption of Zaps by Nostr clients has the potential to change the world, promoting positive behavior, an engaging environment, and a value for value economy.

#[15] A new experimental way to use Nostr. Instead of setting up several relays in your Nostr client, you can add only one => Your proxy. The proxy will broadcast events to its connected relays and send back to you all the responses.

#[16]

Most recent Damus (TestFlight) build has integrated DeepL translations. #[17] explains how to set up note translation #[18]

#[19] says “The option to filter global by paid relays on Damus is a game changer. I’m finding lots of people who followed me that I had not followed back and posts from noobs needing help.”
