NOSTRGRAM UPDATES: Web Of Trust, Bitcoin, NostrPlebs Spaces and more!
I'm back again with an update Nogs! A couple of big ones and a few smallers ones today!
Try them out at https://nostrgram.co/
Already in NostrGram? Refresh the page to get the updates.
1. WEB OF TRUST SCORES
On each profile image you'll now see a little green circle with a number in it that represents how connected you are to that person. If you follow them, they get 1 added to their score, and for each person *you* follow that follows them, they get +0.1 added. This is their "Web of Trust Score" *for you*. For someone else their score will be different based on their connections.
Examples:
2. USD VALUE OF ZAPS
When you click the ⚡ symbol to make a Lightning payment, the USD value of each amount of sats is now shown (updated hourly). This gives you an idea of how much USD value you're sending when you support somebody. The day will come when Bitcoin is the standard and nobody will care what the USD value is, but for now it can be helpful to know how much purchasing power you're sending. This also saves you the trouble of having to open your Lightning wallet for each amount of sats to see the value. For "Custom Amount", as you type in the number of sats the USD value is updated also.
3. NOSTRPLEBS SPACES IN NOTES
#[0] has a service (NostrPlebs Spaces) for live audio discussion. Drop a link to a space into a note and it will embed the space. Pin that note and listen/participate in the space while browsing Nostr!
4. BITCOIN AND SATS SYMBOLS
The #Bitcoin hashtag now shows orange with the Bitcoin logo after it, and if you put the word "sats" after a number it's converted to the sats symbol (e.g. 1000 sats). Commas in the number are fine. If there's no number in front of "sats" it's not converted. The sats symbol was designed by #[1]
FEEDBACK AND ⚡ APPRECIATED
As always, your feedback, ideas, suggestions and bug reports are all welcome. Also, please remember to ⚡ this note to support NostrGram if you use it. That literally buys me time to work on the project and keep making NostrGram the best web client possible!
(The first post got mangled somehow so I reposted it)
Just because you follow someone doesn't mean you trust them. In fact, many people specifically follow accounts that they don't, or are adversarial. Consider this approach to WoT:

Same... This is incredibly annoying. Nice for an option, but disabled by default please...
#[2] just added this for profile & follows (Settings->Backup)
It's not necessisarilly that we all want it, it's just that we all recognize that it's inevitable whether we want it or not...
Yea I love games but I don't like gamified finance all that much. If your service is going to give me rewards, reward me for using the service as intended, not for playing add-on games after every transaction or once per day...
Check out Voltage's Flow 2.0, announced yesterday. It's a solid step in the direction of automating all that (:
For your twitter bio url you can just have a redirect on your site to nostr:npub…
Then you don’t need to put the full npub on the bio.
Something like this https://nvk.org/nostr
Or use a NIP-05 identifier... That's literally what they're for; Human-readable identifiers that resolve to npubs.
