Hmm I have noticed this concern gets hand waved away as nothing. This makes me think this will forever be a niche thing.

Command your whole identity with a single key, but a single rogue app, or someone getting access to it somehow, and it is lost. People have a lot of energy and time tied into online identities. Being able to recover from lost or compromised keys is essential I think. Hopefully some work is done on that, I think a solution is necessary for Nostr to succeed.

Wow, you seem nice πŸ«‚

Is that why there are so few users here πŸ˜‚ if this is ever going to be a thing, not just a tech demo, real people need to be able to use it, not just tech nerds.

It's very different. Some ways good, some ways bad.

The "keys" thing is a blessing and a curse I think. It's great to enable easy sign in, and sharing your identity between different sites. But what about people who always lose passwords. Afaik there is no way to recover an account? That seems like a major missing thing for most potential users. Amber is a good start, but still, a key being lost or stolen means you basically lose your entire identity, with no possibility of recovery. 😬

I finally figured out how to "bunker login" with Amber. It could be made easier πŸ˜…

It took a few clicks to even find it, then creating a new entry, then copy pasting a link, then a notification I had to bring up with another click, then another screen where I had to select from some options. It's great that it works, but being more streamlined would be nice.

I'm just trying this out. I have a little bit of engagement, and haven't posted much. I don't think there's a ton of people here.

Nostr is a neat project, but is still very confusing. I think it needs more work before it's ready for normal people. I finally figured out how to "bunker login" with Amber. That was a struggle πŸ˜…

Both Chachi and Flotilla have "forum" functionality and they both work great. What else do we have?

Do the hamster people need anything else? I don't think so.

I know it doesn't look like phpBB, but that can be arranged.

These both look like they could be good options with some work, but they are so confusing. I tried to make a new space on flotilla, and immediately there is a Bitcoin paywall for starting a relay. I thought notes could exist on any relay, that's what makes this censorship resistant?

This works just fine on mobile, and if nowhere near as confusing as either option you mentioned.

Nostr is a really neat idea, but it's not for normal people yet. I can't imagine a non technical user understanding a lot of this. My mom wouldn't have a chance πŸ˜‚

You need to be able to sign in, create post.

Chachi let me sign in, but has a tendency to lock up. I'm using it as a PWA.

I tried flotilla. I need a code to login to the pyramid it says.

Needs extra spicy Cheetos for some rouge on the cheeks.
