Sharing your post with a selection of Communities speaks a lot more to normies than picking which Relays to use.
Blew my mind that one.
First thing I'd love to learn here is why a public NIP-29 group isn't more appropriate for this use case 😉.
The more Relays overlap with Communities, the better.
In both directions.
NIP-29 fixes this.
Currently the cost of Gigi followers to be here = zero.
I'm choosing to focus on what will replace noStrudel (and all other twitter-like apps) for me.
👉 App optimized for Group Chat, Communities, Stories, Wikis, ...
The usability of Twitter-like apps, though useful now, declines with Nostr's popularity.
nostr:npub1wyuh3scfgzqmxn709a2fzuemps389rxnk7nfgege6s847zze3tuqfl87ez , though not beautiful, is most optmized for all the other things I want:
- in-thread conversations
- custom emoji reactions
- top zappers
- publishing in communities
- relay settings
- ...

On Nostr, wikis can link to a whole lot more than other wiki entries.
They can be curated entry points into any topic, in whatever format.
A wiki page about a Musician that does not let you listen to her music is going to look extremely silly in hindsight, for example 😉. #wikis
Nostr can actually make the other way around not such a freakin cringe experience.
Reading the actual bible with high signal commentary from perspectives that clash.
Instead of getting welcomed by a bunch of close minded InFlUeNcOrs telling me what the "Real" Christ Club is all about.
The first rule of Christ Club is you don't get to tell others what Christ Club is about
Agree.
Keys & Relays (and Blossom servers for that matter) should be front & center.
Most of the other things are distractions, take up valuable onboarding time and confuse users more than they help them.
(NIP-05, PIN code, lightning address, following individual suggested users, ...)
It's all Profile lists (aka Bookmarks).
Just not smart or good UX to only have public lists.
Setting up 1 public and 1 private one by default seems like a good idea for a Chat / Community app.
Who's your designer(s) btw? Any npub I can follow?
Resonate a lot with what you guys are doing!
- As a homeschooling father
- As someone healing from EMF-caused arthritis in my hands
Keep it up 🚀

Follow list 👉 Public 🌐
Contacts list 👉 Private 🛡️
Taylor's Version:
Putting communities first guides people straight to a curated experience creators can actually monetize .
Profile page that puts Keys, Stories & Communities first. #nostrdesign
- Npub = Only ID you need
- Stories (aka Hypernotes) = Interactive Billboards for the profile to literally display whatever she wants
- Communities = A quick and PoW way to get an idea of this person's Topics of Interest + Social circles
