Universal social interface
Holy moly Nostrudel is amazing. 🤩 I’ve only had the desktop experience so far but looking forward to trying it on mobile too.
What fun! I love the tile view - super nifty. Love the toggle controls. Very interested in the “communities” section. Super playful and intuitive UX. Bravo, devs! 👏

That's really cool, I didn't realize they were geographically distributed like that. I like how it shows the latency from each location
Yes and that the moment of the new moon is objectively simultaneous for every person on earth
transform the https canonical of your relay, ala "please connect with a nostr client" or generic strfry page, into something beautiful and informative. Customizable without a build.
v0.1.0 of myrelay.page is up, includes:
(1) customization via NIP-78, many more to come (theme, feature enable/disable, generic blocks like text/image/video)
(1.a) block order
(1.b) block visibility
(2) dark/light mode switcher
(3) added example Caddyfile (nginx/haproxy in progress)
(4) general code maintenance
next releases focus on customization, some state improvements and then some work around svelte stores to clean up the templates.

Wait so are you running monitors in all those cities?
Looks great!

I think this didn’t get picked up enough in Nostr, but nostr:npub108pv4cg5ag52nq082kd5leu9ffrn2gdg6g4xdwatn73y36uzplmq9uyev6 is launching building a substack like competitor on nostr, called letr.co.

Interesting
Yeah the past and the future are an abstraction. Which isn’t to say they aren’t real. Abstractions are real.
Still it’s an odd feeling to realize that there never has been, and never will, anything other than the present moment. That there really is no “whenelse” to be. Not even like as a metaphor, but like *actually*
I can perceive this only fleetingly. Sometimes I wonder what it would feel like to be able maintain this awareness- maybe some people can.
The siren song of ecash schemes 🤣
I sense a rabbit hole. This one goes deep.
Relay based communities add connection overhead and not everyone can run one, is that a fair assessment? nostr:npub1lunaq893u4hmtpvqxpk8hfmtkqmm7ggutdtnc4hyuux2skr4ttcqr827lj nostr:npub1ye5ptcxfyyxl5vjvdjar2ua3f0hynkjzpx552mu5snj3qmx5pzjscpknpr nostr:npub149p5act9a5qm9p47elp8w8h3wpwn2d7s2xecw2ygnrxqp4wgsklq9g722q

> relay based communities add connection overhead
Increase connection overhead? Hmm maybe if you're aggregating community posts. But if you only want to see the posts from a specific community, and you only have to connect to one community-specific relay, that would actually *decrease* connection overhead. It's a different use case than global nostr.
> not everyone can run one
We're fixing this :)
> Nostr is still very centralized. There are a few big relays that everyone needs.
Agree, and one of the reasons for making communities based on relays is to massively increase the total number of relays. Instead of 10,000 communities using 10 relays, there should be 10,000 communities using at least 10,000 relays.
I think non-community-specific relays will still be useful to bootstrap the discovery of other relays.
If it censors people, you can fork it

> Feel moderation should happen at the relay level rather than at the message level
You are 100% correct. Building communities on top of the protocol is too complicated. Communities should be based on relays, like how nostr was supposed to work all along.
Me and nostr:npub1ye5ptcxfyyxl5vjvdjar2ua3f0hynkjzpx552mu5snj3qmx5pzjscpknpr are building this right now.
