Designer that codes. Also #WordStudy #Dadstr #Farmstr

You need the write key to read your most precious data (chat messages, private notes, docs, media, etc)

So that would inaccurate and confusing too πŸ˜•

❌ "Account", "Nostr Address", "Password", "Log In", "Sign Up"

βœ… Name, Nsec (secret key), Npub (public identifier)

Keys can be incredibly fluid & fun to use.

Hiding them behind inaccurate legacy terminology is the worst of both worlds.

How I approach 90% of my social interactions too πŸ™ˆ

Keymoji:

Making normies create & remember secret keys.

Yes, it's a stupid idea.

Yes, it's something you would never do for a bitcoin address.

Yes, it kinda supposes key-rotation will a thing at some point.

Yes, it needs to be combined with a great "login"-flow for other apps (which I'll share this week πŸ˜‰)

But,

It puts keys in the minds of normies. Literally.

(insane how fast people can remember even randomly created Keymoji's in my tests)

It doesn't hide nsecs in honepot-bunkers or behind email-looking sign up flows.

It doesn't use the English-only 12 words seed phrase.

It avoids clipboards and even if users are stupid enough to save a screenshot of the emoji's, it's only one part of the key.

The lazy way is (to let the app generate the emoji's + line for you) is the most secure way.

Think about it πŸ™ƒ.

The Chat-first approach keeps solving problem after problem for me, it's insane.

When a thread turns into a chat, it makes sense to display it as such.

This usually starts to happen from the second level of replies to a post. #nostrdesign

nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z listening to you and nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn pushed me to experiment with this

the main feed is only root kind:1s and then the in-event view is the "chat" of discussing that event -- feels quite nice

nostr:npub149p5act9a5qm9p47elp8w8h3wpwn2d7s2xecw2ygnrxqp4wgsklq9g722q -- maybe this gives you some ideas

Wtf!????

I literally sketched this out last Friday 🀯

Literally inspired by the exact same two minute snippet of nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z talking about Chat UI's with nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn.

Need some inspiration for goodhttps://www.bitcoinlayers.org/ logo. Any ideas? Or maybe there's a designer that would like to try? :)

#nostrdesign

I'll give it a try πŸ’‘

On my list now πŸ˜…

Haha, I remember thinking that exact same thought πŸ˜…

Haha how do you see a lion 🦁 ?

What do you see? #logodesign
