'Nostr for Normies' nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240's Talk @ Nostrasia

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pGZ2epF8ZY

I'm watching the whole thing now, imo opinion one of the most interesting presentation from Nostrasia. I don't think his app is for me mostly (eg I don't need negative-content curation, following other people's Mute Lists) but I'm pretty much on the same page with his introduction, especially his focus on the major complaint of the B!tcoin Tourettes Chatroom dilemma.

Not sure if Rabble has seen nostrdit, but I think their Onboarding Wizard is a clever idea which tackles some of the issues he raises (screenshots below).

And he didn't mention nostrudel, although I'm sure he would be aware of it. Nostrudel profile pages are also a great resource for discovery, the show Community membership of that particular user, and Communities in general list members, so despite them being quiet Communities offer a some pretty good potentially recommended users. It's not unimaginable that Community Membership could be used as a way for an app to offer recommendations in future.

Questions I still wonder about:

- Who are exactly the 'normies' devs somewhat fetishise?

Nostr devs seem to be after the 'typical' tiktok and instagram user, despite those platforms having a lot of their most active and engaging content being from subcultures. I've said all this before but I think the normie is slightly mythological, but even if they were to exist they would arrive anyway if The Content was here. (Which goes back to the introductory problem of b!tcoin tourettes chatroom spam, that stuff is not considered content by anyone outside of BT).

- If 'normies' can use discord, they can work out eg nostrudel ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

- The normies are already here.

Just because you've bought b!tcoin doesn't mean you're not a normie. Whatever is left after you've appled a lot of b!tcoin filter words would be considered 'normie'. Nostr should focus on attracting the non-normies if anything.

Sorry, I'm both using and not wanting to use 'normie' lol, tbf I don't think Rabble is using it as a pejorative tho, I think it's mostly just used as it's a nice snappy title for a talk. 'non-dev users' and 'non-b!tcoin tourettes sufferers' might not be as snappy a term ;)

Anyway, the washing machine beeped and I need to hang my laundry.

It's been fun typing this.

I may add to this depending on how defeated I feel after wrestling the clothes horse.

Do all #lightning wallets provide a way to export all transactions into a report like nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq does? #asknostr

Thanks a lot ๐Ÿ™

Hey plebs ๐Ÿ‘‹

What's your take on the recent issue about lightning not being secure, witnessed by people in the bitcoin-dev mailing list?

https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2023-October/022032.html

I see some freak-outs on social media. I am not knowledgeable enough to decide what I should feel
