This starter pack website is great not only because it can help some with onboarding, but also because it's the first non-kind-1 app to have enough usage to become useless in its normal form of "just display all lists by anyone", and now some anti-spam or curation mechanism will have to be invented.
It's even better that, since it's made to be used by people who have just joined Nostr, using their follows as a filter can't be a good solution because they simply do not follow anyone.
I just hope whatever solution
calle 👁️⚡👁️ (nprofile…v72v) comes up with isn't centralizing and specific, but something more generic and interoperable (like relying on relays).
Introducing Following._ — a simple way to create and share follow packs on Nostr!
Finding interesting people to follow has always been one of the biggest challenges for new users on Nostr. Even experienced users often struggle to discover new communities and voices.
Following._ makes it easy to curate lists of users and share them with anyone on the web. Whether you're helping newcomers get started or building a niche community, Following._ allows you to grow connections on Nostr.
You can create your own follow pack in minutes and share it anywhere. Here’s an example:
https://following.space/d/d27a91a4-6155-4089-b4de-377e24dde08d
I spent months complaining that someone should build this... and eventually realized that someone had to be me. So here we are.
I also leaned heavily on AI during the process — it’s never been easier (or more fun) to create apps for open platforms like Nostr. If you have an idea, you really can just build it. No gatekeepers, no permission needed. Just ship it.
Peace
