Building the future of news on Nostr. Get a daily news digest from https://newstr.social

Is the lack of quality UI in any way reflective of the protocol itself, or do we think the clients just haven't matured yet?

There was some FUD going around when I first joined NOSTR, claims that the community was somehow toxic.

I've found it to be the opposite.

The community I've interacted with has been more open and friendly than my experience on Mastodon.

Yes, there a lot of Bitcoin talk.

I'll take that if it means the rest of the conversations are genuine, friendly and open.

Another family owned news org goes to Hearst Connecticut. Every daily newspaper in Fairfield County is currently owned by Hearst.

Seems to me that having a server hosted, albeit a virtual one, is about one quarter the price as it was 15 years ago, though there are a lot factors to take into consideration.

If you want to force Big Tech to support local journalism, fine, but find another way. Don't destroy the link, which is basically tantamount to destroying the web.

Good morning summer!

I guess hat I'm trying to understand is that as the number of relays grow wouldn't it be possible that a given key isn't posting to any of the relays ,y client is connecting to? #nostrprotocol #nostr
