Cool; and really fast!
nostr:npub1048qg5p6kfnpth2l98kq3dffg097tutm4npsz2exygx25ge2k9xqf5x3nf release: human-friendly URLs
- Defaults to using nip05 and article identifier for readable URLs, Habla nip05 users also get prerendering and shorter URLs
- Adds a Share button to your articles for copying URL or nostr ID
- Adds a URL preview to editor
Long ass URLs will always work but have decided to move to these by default due to community feedback.
Let me know what you think!

Logout button is a major W!
On nsec login, although definitely not ideal, I wrote up a case for accomodating it at least in the short term.
Also related, does it make sense to try and align on a particular logo & colors for recognizability when signing in? The value would be that users can see a common logo across apps and quickly realize, "Ok, I've used this before, I know I can log in here."
I like how Habla's modal explains how things work and provides links to helpful resources, but it is a lot to parse in one go and may be overwhelming to users.
I like Coracle's approach in promoting one method for signing in as primary and having other options hidden behind a button or dropdown. The question here, would be what is the primary method that is best to promote? Is this just something that needs to evolve over time?
I've been continuing to mull over the sign-in flow for Nostr apps. It seems more complex than the legacy system because of the need to account for more than one method of authentication: extension, public/private keys, nostr connect.

Even if one method becomes standard in the future, I think there's still a question of how to accommodate users who continue using older methods. Examples and more thoughts in thread 🧵. cc nostr:npub1r0rs5q2gk0e3dk3nlc7gnu378ec6cnlenqp8a3cjhyzu6f8k5sgs4sq9ac / nostr:npub1x6gxrjdpacjc62x3y0e4lyfedzyy65kyj29t0026g4z0el2g70esc0rtxj

I like how Kiwi is on the cutting edge and offers Login with Nostr connect. But, it is challenging to explain these options, especially to new users.

Very excited and thankful to receive a grant from nostr:npub10pensatlcfwktnvjjw2dtem38n6rvw8g6fv73h84cuacxn4c28eqyfn34f . This will be a huge help in open sourcing the educational resource https://www.21ideas.org/ I’ve been working on for years. It has always beeen free and open for everyone to learn about #Bitcoin, Austrian School and sound money. Now it will become open for anyone to contribute to and gradually turn into a community asset, rather than a “project of mine”.
You can keep an eye on the development updates by following my subaccount here: nostr:npub10kqkn727y9pwa95zctwd4xpswh27wlkrk6rf68kdw3rr6jn24utqh3w94h
That's awesome, tony! Congratulations 👏
Icons Update:
1. Readability increased and colors are integrated with existing accent colors
2. I tried the address book and seal options
All assets can be found on this drive:

Logo Update:
While trying to copy colors from Zitron's logo I noticed the potential for something even more professional. So I adapted it to have:
1. A full compound path for the gradient (the eye of the ostrich was not included earlier)
2. More symmetry and alignment
3. A better integration with the existing colors on Amethyst

Wow; fantastic work. The icon looks great too 👏
I wonder if it'd be good to have onboarding on this site. Flow would be on onboard onto Nostr. Then explore apps.
That's fair. I think the original logo is strong also. I just like the direct metaphor of this person is "in my contacts or address book."
Here Vitor talks about a seal or like a stamp
Visually, these are very clean and appealing; great work!
I wonder if the purple could be brought closer to shades already used in the app. I also like the address book icon someone mentioned. And, I wonder if the tear shaped background of the last one could also just be a circle or maybe a seal like Vitor was saying.
Do you have any recommendations for good place to send a developer brand new to nostr for initial onboarding?
Trying to get my brother, who is a developer, onboarded onto Nostr. Can anyone help him troubleshoot nip5 on his domain?
Communities, I think yes.
I follow hashtags though, so here on amethyst they show up in my follows. I personally, have less of a use case for that one.
A lot of work ahead, but I'm excited that linktr is now online https://linktr-nostr.pages.dev (after struggling with the svelte deploy) You can visit my profile to see a demo https://linktr-nostr.pages.dev/npub1gzuushllat7pet0ccv9yuhygvc8ldeyhrgxuwg744dn5khnpk3gs3ea5ds
You can also create your own link list using pinstr.app for now (thanks nostr:npub18c556t7n8xa3df2q82rwxejfglw5przds7sqvefylzjh8tjne28qld0we7)
I hope you like the project! stay tuned, I will be adding new features and improvements soon!
That's awesome! Will definitely try it out and make myself a site.
