Just need a female version of this because I'm none of these 😄

Throw this on if you need a #laugh today. It's too #funny 🤣 nostr:note196hvvnd544ctpeyyqa4lmsyvqz5hln3020czuav57nd8304kk5sqz8tlzn

The best 🤩🤩🤩 Enjoy every moment 💛💛💛

Hold on to your Kids by Gabor Mate or Weapons of Mass Instruction by John Taylor Gatto were some of my favourite books in the last year. Took me a bit to get through the Gabor Mate book, but I learned so much! 💯

Muchas gracias ☺️😊🤩

Yesterday we moved from our paradise at the beach. We aimed to leave at 12, ended up leaving at 2pm. 🤣 Not too bad of an effort with almost everyone in the house feeling less than 100% 🤷‍♀️

Now, we're bouncing around friends and family until we fly out in just over a week. ✈️

We'll miss these #sunsets, I'm sure. 🌅

But I'm also excited and filled with wonder about where we might end up and who we will meet along the way. ✨

nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240 asked, "What does a Nostr Community Growth Team look like?"

Maybe a coalition of folks from the different teams working on Nostr? Team Damus, Team Primal, Team nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg, etc all joining together virtually to foster growth is what comes to my mind.

I’m on Team #V4V, which includes my podcast, #RadioDetox, nostr:npub13qrrw2h4z52m7jh0spefrwtysl4psfkfv6j4j672se5hkhvtyw7qu0almy, Wavlake, nostr:npub1h8gzew8am6cezuq7cpjgudldra40hgnruqrqlsrqnxnzs5wjtczqztps02, nostr:npub1gr65v2hqq83n3vqfh6m65eej65hxlqwyjp0echc9ghvw5p6pvqpse3mmjc, nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5, & nostr:npub1t6njrhtc9q3f5wdrwfrhpypq3kes5mpdx4u4rw9w2pxjanuxcpkqveagv3.

(Much of the above stems from nostr:npub1jwev660jrdrfeaw2u9sssv3v4jgsxqs32qmd5yhpgzlesg5j0gase4qha6)

I’ve onboarded 4 people to Nostr and I’m observing them having the same experience I had:

You join, kick some tires, and go, “OK, this is cool, but now what?” You don’t “get it” yet or don’t get the interaction you’d hoped for so you bounce for a bit. The learning curve scares you off. Or maybe you just don’t use it often enough because you’re still having to “be everywhere” to promote music or business.

I joined Feb 2023 and didn’t come back til the end of the year.

I just onboarded 2 coworkers who didn’t need my help setting up wallets and who haven’t been very active.

I onboarded a social media client of mine who likes it but doesn’t have the time to be active and who wants to learn more about Bitcoin. (Because, again, we’re very Bitcoin-centric here).

I onboarded nostr:npub10e6utz6xjhjz8juv2kwp8t7dmn0l9juukrzs04pw9s8qtl4dcrts733v0p, who hasn’t been active since. He’s a musician in the UK with a day job, and I keep poking at him to get on here more.

Which leads me to the purpose of #RadioDetox, and that is to tell the V4V story. I’ve so far had 3 music artists plus one music business executive on as guests. An interview with a dev is next.

I’m currently on a journey to talk to a few devs and BTS folks right now to make sure the podcast covers this aspect of the story.

I do plan to get back to talking with people like Chris to see what their impression of Nostr is (so far). Radio Detox is about detoxing off the old systems of the music business, money, and social media.

Guests (so far) like Ainsley, nostr:npub17yemy3hswcelmcdgjsfn4sns4wr4q5ptvj5h08qt4s7fy2qe3hdqsczs99, and nostr:npub1ucgf8qyuxpqrkape9mqc20qmcs9nxe8axy069edfr8hkcl5tlhssueflfw have shown a good use case for V4V using Wavlake and Tunestr.

I’ve talked to nostr:npub1a6c3jcdj23ptzcuflek8a04f4hc2cdkat95pd6n3r8jjrwyzrw0q43lfrr, who runs Tunestr about the use case there and where he sees that headed.

There’s so much potential here and we’re only getting started.

I was talking with Phantom Power about how some of what we talk about on RD can become case studies in this movement.

I agree 💯 that we need a plan or program of some kind to support the creators we onboard. It can’t be just, “Hey come join!” And then we walk away… We also need to ensure these creators gain traction by being active on here and sharing content, which means some community involvement. The #Nostr community as a whole needs to embrace these creators—whether they’re in music, art, photography, etc.

If you want to continue the #GrowNostr conversation, LMK 🔥

I've had such a similar experience. I'm also from the February 2023 squad but dropped off towards the end of the year for a few months (dropped off everything- I was just completely exhausted).

I've brought at least ten or so people across but sadly they posted a couple of times and didn't stick around. Also one or two musicians! I've been nagging my husband to do something here & even he's taking a while.

It's a tricky one! Good on you for trying!! Keep up the efforts 💯

I agree. I think we will have to do it again soon! Come to DR for Christmas?! 🤣

I hope he feels better tomorrow 🤞 we have a bit to do!

And GN 🌙

😂 always is. Funny I never get it though 🤣

We are travelling to see friends and family around NZ for just over a week, and then heading to Malaysia for a bit followed by Spain 🤩

Must be like Covid on steroids or something 🤣

It's a husbands version of the flu. I had a headache for a day and a scratchy throat and slept. Kids have had varying degrees of headaches snot noses and coughs. Husband is up all nights,totally congested, can't breathe, sickest out of everyone 😂

I'm so lucky to meet all the best people while travelling 💯

Half of Australia probably doesn't even know. There's probably some other drama distracting them...

Like during 2021 when most of the continent was conned into believing no one would ever travel internationally again without the vax. 🤦‍♀️
