Those solar panels look happy that the leaves are gone. LOL, Have a great Christmas and drink something nice on Old Years Night! See you in fall 2025. Tried to Zap but not setup.

Congratulations, Wordpress is the easy button for many but it totally sucks for security and performance. Your site gets a great score on https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-www-scrye-com-blogs-nirik-posts-2024-12-22-hello-from-nikola/4yoa0hex7x?form_factor=mobile. Most WP sites are in the red/orange zone due to misuse/abuse of plugins.

I successfully edited and deleted posts. Your client and relays probably need to support edits and deletions but I'm just using defaults and no issues thus far.

It's not Christmas till you get some Stanley and the Ten Sleepless Knights

# A Website Hosted on NOSTR?

The **Nostr** landscape is changing every day. **https://npub.pro** came across my radar and clearly it cannot work well, basically a website hosted almost entirely on Nostr relays. **I was wrong!**

I'll be honest that at first, things *did not go well*. I posted several issues on https://github.com/nostrband/nostrsite and within a very short time the problems were addressed. Right now it is working so much better. While there is always room for improvement, it is incredibly easy to create a website.

I've invited podcaster/blogger friends to give it a try and most now have a working website in such short time.

### Quick Start

* Visit https://npub.pro

* Login

* Select a theme.

* Make some settings adjustments (icon, backdrops, colors, etc)

* Press the `Publish` button and that's it!

Here's where it gets interesting, there is no cms backend for your posts. Instead, use any Nostr client to create your website post. Here's a small list of popular clients: https://nostr.com/clients.

### Tips

The site previews work best if you already have content on Nostr.

I would start out with all content, no filtering. Once you finalize your theme choice add filters because you may not want all your Nostr posts to be visible on the website. For example if you have a DIY blog, add the `#DIY` hashtag to all the posts you want to see on the website and set your filter to only show posts tagged `#DIY`. No-one wants to see your `#coffeechain` posts on your DIY blog, LOL.

### What I Like Most

* Automagic RSS Feed

* Looks great on mobile devices

* No database, no CMS, no server maintenance

* Plenty of themes

* Beautiful OG/Twitter sharing

* Built in likes, zap and share plugin

* Theme customization for those that know how to

* Ability to add contributors without creating accounts or managing user databases

* Ability to filter Nostr notes via tags or format (long/short notes)

* Use free subdomain or use your own custom domain

* Fully working site comments with zero effort

### What I Dislike

* Not a problem for me but some probably won't like un-moderated site comments

* Not all CSS is manipulable, or example, some CSS is loaded after the custom css like the Zap/share dialogs (perhaps this is a theme specific issue)(also most creators probably won't use custom css/js code)

### Website Examples Created By Others Using https://npub.pro

* Sport news - [https://gsc.npub.pro/](https://gsc.npub.pro)

* Podcast - [https://directordetour.npub.pro/](https://directordetour.npub.pro)

* Someones personal blog - [https://marc26z.npub.pro/](https://marc26z.npub.pro)

* Custom domain + custom CSS styling - [https://news.pivx.org](https://news.pivx.org)

* My test website with custom CSS - [https://palmtree.npub.pro](https://palmtree.npub.pro)

### Conclusion

I would 100% recommend [Npub.pro](https://npub.pro) to anyone who wants a website. It should take the average person under 30 minutes to get a fully functioning website. If your familiar with the admin interface, you could probably spin up a new website in under 5 minutes.

Revised article to fix spelling errors and update image.

On the post page, yes. On the homepage, no.

Soothing Jazz Winter - Watch The Snow Fall With A Cup Of Coffee

Soon come "The St. Patrick's Youth Steel Band"

Playing Christmas music "Island Style".

It's awesome to see young boys and girls taking on the 'stilt walker' skills of a Mocko Jumbie, a Caribbean tradition for over 200 years.

10 days till Christmas, are you hoping for that perfect present (do tell) or is the joy of giving to others better than any gift?

Anna @ "For the Love of Cigars" cigar shop said I only need one. But it's Christmas and I'm gonna try all three!

Of course I left with a handful of cigars to try as well.

#cigar #christmas

I've reported several issues to npub.pro devs and all have been fixed, added, or improved. Awesome project.

Hey Amethyst, testing **markdown**.

#amethyst gripes, add option to scroll the other way. It sucks that you have to swipe down and read the bottom part of a long post before the beginning. Latest on bottom...
