Have you tried Proton Wallet? It is a nice option for an on-chain mobile wallet.

Find a few accounts to follow, look through their following/follower lists for more people, and start building out your network. You can also search and follow hash tags like #plebchain and #grownostr. You are your own algorithm here. ✌

In highschool, I once laughed on disbelief at a buddy of mine who told me one of his family members who worked at Apple said touch screen iPods were coming soon.

Yes, some similar and some distinct reasons for that, as I understand it. Like South Korea, Japan is a more westernized country. So they suffer from some of the same moral decay.

This combined with the honor culture and dissafected younger generations who believe they will never achieve what their parents did has led to a steep decline in marriage, childbearing, and economic productivity.

Adjascent to all that is the rapidly declining value of the yen.

I had a few years of a Japanese language class and have close friends of Japanese background so I've learned a bit about this country in particular among Asian nations, but I'm no expert. Those who have a better understanding of Japanese culture and economics can correct me if anything I said is off base.

Oh I agree with you. I think there are many reasons for it on a civilizational level. The deepest being that we have lost the Christian moral foundation that built—or, maybe more appropriately, birthed—the West.

Children are now seen as inconveniences, lifestyle decisions, accessories, etc.

Knock on effects of industrialism and feminism as well.

We murder millions of babies in the womb every year through abortion.

Those that are having children usually have many but there is a greater number of people who are deciding not to have children, or even marry.

There is also the fiat factor, of course, but that is downstream of the moral issues and a neo-malthusian ruling class that is literally hellbent on reducing population.

nostrapps.com is not exhaustive but is a good place to demonstrate a lot of what is being built in the ecosystem right now and a good opportunity for people to better grasp the interoperability of Nostr.

Interoperability, and, what's more, being interoperable with a public/private key pair that allows a person to bring their network with them wherever they go.

All the other features are great, but this is what I believe is revolutionary.
