Bluesky is an app that runs in on the AT protocol. Nostr is a protocol. People can’t go to an App Store and download Nostr.
The apps need to market themselves. Marketing the protocol simply gets you more developers.
There are other factors related to branding that are not helping Nostr, but starting with the apps instead of the protocol goes a long way.

I think the focus has shifted to Milton. My mom was hit with flooding in Florida and there was coverage down there until Saturday when it switched to gtfo now.
It’s also not clear what out and what safe will be given that there may be inland tornadoes and definitely flooding from rain, plus 100+ mph winds. A lot of the newer housing is shoddy stick built so if the winds sustain inland it will be a huge mess.
Because of disinformation and the fact that the region has not been hit in a lifetime the national news is trying to encourage families to get their relatives out of harms way.
Most of the fundraising / disaster relief I’m seeing is focused on NC region. And rightly so.
It’s disappointing that Nostr is completely void of any mention of what has happened and what’s coming. Likely bc those impacted have been in recovery mode for the past week like myself, but I’ve also heard from journalists on the network that they receive little to no engagement from this community on any posts.

We have been talking about adding this tag only to follow list updates on a temporary basis to try to track down the lost lists problem. We don’t believe it is a Nos problem bc we’re only seeing partial lost lists.
In general I don’t think it’s a good idea to add these tags w/o user permission but the Nostr ecosystem also needs to stop losing user follow lists. If all the clients added the tag temporarily we could likely pinpoint the issue and stop frustrating users and also wasting dev time trying to figure out if it’s our respective app.

Based on user research we did last week on onboarding, there are a lot of active Nostr users without NIP05s. Some still don’t know what those are for. Everyone might want to make this a lower ranked criteria until that’s sorted.
I realize publicly explaining how you are defining POW is likely not the best idea, however I hope there are options for recognizing legit users vs spam bots when it comes to new accounts.

You need to have at least one relay in common with everyone you follow or you will not see their posts.
You can go to each person’s profile check to see if you have a relay in common and add one if you don’t.
Having too many relays will cause some apps to slow down. So be mindful of how many you add

Yes you need to enter your nsec to get full features of the clients. Many of the mobile app and desktop clients use the on device keychain to store your nsec. This means when you enter it into the app it goes into your private on device keychain rather into the app. Nos.social does this and I’m pretty sure the other major apps do this as well.

Presently zaps are a way to show loyalty to the most popular people on Nostr. They reinforce existing hierarchies and social norms in the space. Zaps are not working for Creators or Journalists unless those creators and journalists talk about Nostr or Bitcoin.
Exhibit A: this quote post which is opaque but said by someone with clout receives more zaps than over half of the creators combined in the Nos Creator residency.
Why are we zapping a billionaire more $$ but not zapping people who are making original content on Nostr?
If we train an LLM on Nostr today - 100 people would get all the zaps and everyone else would get pennies which is what the current fiat system has evolved into.
If the goal instead is to use AI behind the scenes to improve the ledger / accounting then we need to ask how the llm was trained and by who and have transparency about the connections to it etc.
Lots of people have experimented w/ micropayments for journalism and they have all been unsuccessful for various reasons. When it comes to social media and journalism, the payment experience is in the wrong place - meaning it’s before the link is clicked, rather than onsite after the article / media has been consumed. Nostr potentially solves this bc it supports long form content within the ecosystem but first journalists/ news orgs need to migrate to Nostr.
And they will not do that if we keep zapping hot takes about how cool Nostr is instead of original, thought provoking content.
Instead of zapping this reply find a journalist or news outlet and zap their content!

I unfortunately got sick, but not before I discovered some of the amazing things about Riga:
1. The public transit system is 💯! You never need to wait long. It’s clean. You can scan your card in multiple places so all the doors open and close!
2. The National Library is amazing! 5 floors of donated books plus incredible architecture and fascinating exhibits on the history of books, printing etc. Definitely worth a visit!
3. The food! I’ve mostly eaten vegetarian and it’s actually vegetables and not weird processed soy products!
3a. Everyone should adopt their style of cream cheese.
3b. Dark rye bread is the only rye.
3c. The carrot salad which looks like spiralized carrots is 😋!
3d. There is kombucha everywhere and it is very good!

Some inspiration for rethinking the social compute enabled experience:
“How can we align our interests with what living organisms and systems naturally do? How can we yoke ourselves to what they’re doing so that our relationship is no longer exploitative, but rather one where we’re putting existing capabilities to productive ends? That might mean adapting how we work, how we think, and what we’re building. But I can guarantee that whatever comes out of that approach will be more fascinating, generative, and sustainable long-term than what we have now.”
Particularly interested in new experiences that are non-exploitative. Living through Web 2.0 feels like surviving a slash and burn approach to co-existing with nature where there were some benefits but at such enormous costs.

Based on other posts of yours you are actively creating communities on Nostr. What is motivating you to have separate accounts in addition to the communities?

2024-08-07 13:11:03

Not all clients store the nsec in client. Many store it in the device keychain and equivalent for Android. They simply reference the nsec where it is stored on device.
Which means when you paste in an nsec, it is not always being stored by the app.

Are you open to sharing why you post from multiple accounts? I’m curious in general but specifically if it has anything to do with curating content or interacting with particular communities?

2024-08-04 23:40:30

- reply

I agree that we need to talk about the clients and not reference the protocol.
2) I’m curious how you define V4V? When we talked to Nostr users in January the thing they all agreed on was the need for more diverse content. What is the incentive for Creators and Journalists to come to Nostr if they can’t get paid for their work? Maybe not fully make a living but at least cover equipment costs.
3) At this point I think the ux is fully optimized for engagement and dopamine hits. Even in the programs Nos is running we are finding that a subset of people feel the need to make Bitcoin or Nostr related content so they fit in. This is instead of the content they applied to the program with. I would argue that by implementing the corporate social ux patterns the clients on Nostr are reinforcing the dopamine effect. At the same time we need to enhance discovery of other types of content - especially for those who are excited about the tech but aren’t interested in building it.
To this end Nos launched a replacement for reply counts on the main feed last week. In part bc it’s too process intense to do the counts while generating the feed. It’s the first of many experiments to move away from infinite scroll and update the experience of viewing content on Nostr.

2024-08-04 18:20:08

- reply

If you look at the data from nostr.band leas than 2000 people per day send zaps to ~800 people per day.
The message of V4V doesn’t add up when you look at the data for zaps.
I don’t think its the fault of zaps per. They have been implemented in a way that mimics likes and feeds into our dopamine receptors. In addition much of Nostr resembles the UI for algorithmic driven feeds.
If zaps are going to support creative work on Nostr both the work and the zaps likely need to be represented differently in the UI.

One of the things that is depressing about Generative AI and imagery is that the outputs all start to look the same - high gloss illustration/ animation-y.
Today the only popular magazine cover that features art in the states is The New Yorker. Previously Life, Time and others often featured original art.
This link features a set of prints from agricultural magazine covers of the previous century. The amazing thing is the wide diversity of art and styles and even mediums.
We need AI to clean bathrooms not do art.

Excited to share an interview we did with a couple of the Nos Creator Residents who stream on Nostr.
Having worked on streaming software elsewhere I learned that technology has enabled streamers to single handedly do the work of 10. What used to require videographers, audio engineers, lighting specialists etc is now undertaken by the streamer. It’s quite incredible when you think about it. It’s also the reason Nostr has the potential to change the game for these creators.
Both @npub1rr3…nywd and @npub1q33…mqu0 are at different stages of their streaming journey but both were excited about the experience streaming on Nostr offers.

Nostriga Workshop Proposal!
Sometimes you build something and no one is using it. Often people chalk it up to marketing issues and call it a day, and sometimes it is a variation of a marketing issue, but often it comes down to one of three things:
- The thing you built solves a problem that people aren’t that interested in solving
- The thing you built solves a problem, but you haven’t quite found the audience it solves it for
- The thing you built solves part of the problem, but needs some tweaks to see real adoption.
You can understand which sector your product is in by talking to users, however asking them directly will often not get you honest answers.
I’ve proposed a 90 min hands-on workshop at @npub1nst…rg5l on how to ask the right questions when everyone is lying to you. Based on over 10 years of user research experience and tips from Rob Fitzpatrick’s book, The Mom Test, this workshop will help you identify the right questions to ask to understand where to take your product next.
Interested in seeing it happen? Please take a couple of minutes to like it on Github.

This is helpful! Do you think the default zap amounts are too low? I did the math last night and 1000 sats is the equivalent of $0.60 USD. Granted this is a lot in some parts of the world but it seems like 6 tenths of a cent in USD the current default is too low

Among the things Nostr has going for it - it did not emerge from Silicon Valley and nor is it tied to SV in a binding way. Which is exciting for several reasons, but the biggest as this article points out is that there is a dearth of innovation emerging from Silicon Valley and the US in general. https://www.garbageday.email/p/american-digital-backwater

Country borders no. Private property on a small scale. Balaji wants to take over parts of SF and restrict who can enter. That is not freedom. There is a massive crisis of migration bc of western wars (Middle east > Europe) and climate change (central America > USA) and even in the US we have a housing crisis bc its become a commodity rather than a right. Instead of solving the problem Balaji wants to hide from it while also exacerbating it.
The fact that capital moves freely and people can’t is a global problem. It is fueling the concentration of wealth globally.

There’s no freedom if certain parts if the population can’t access parts of the city etc. It’s a return to feudalism at best and at worst its a dystopian hellscape future.

Web of trust works for a social use case however people use microblogging/ blogging platforms for other things. Journalists will follow people they don’t necessarily agree with to see what is happening on their beat. Scientists who used Twitter a lot before it’s downfall also may not have trusted everyone they followed but they were using the connections to see what else is happening in their field or adjacent fields - this is especially true when there’s a paradigm shift happening in science.

“many disciplines are focussing too much on the past to make predictions for the future. We need more imagination for something new to emerge. And sometimes that means starting a process without knowing where you will end up.”
Our current challenges whether in business, politics or the environment are in deep need of outside the box thinking. It’s exciting to see how this architect is working in rural areas to build anew.

The left gets shut down all the time on other social platforms. They very much need a decentralized tool for sharing information. The challenge for adoption is the perception of who is on Nostr based on how it is messaged publicly. The current message is “freedom to” and misses the important aspect of “freedom from”. The left hears freedom to and thinks Nostr is the new 4chan, but that’s not really the case.

Thanks @npub147w…selt for pulling together a great panel on decentralization via Nostr in NYC! Great to hear about @npub1yfg…v6vg ‘s efforts to rewire the music experience and @npub1yzv…rf8q ‘s commitment to decentralization. @npub14qz…2q26 for reminding us all that Nostr is genuinely a nice place to hang out. 🎉

At a concert on Saturday the singer told a story about how some of his fans in Germany - a mom and daughter watched his live streams throughout the pandemic but didnt use venmo or Paypal. When he started touring again they showed up at 4 of his shows in Germany and presented him with a piggy bank full of 5 euro notes - 2 for every online show they watched. It was over 300 euros!
Women give $ often at much higher rates and with less strings attached. Imagine the potential in Nostr if this were a place women felt comfortable sticking around in. Noted in a week when we’ve lost yet another community building woman on Nostr.

lol you are assuming hardware companies talk to users about things other than marketing…. Software especially, is always an afterthought.

Lol this assumes I even have cell service at home. The telcos have been enabled by the FCC for decades. 10 years ago cell service was better in Southern Sudan than rural Northeast and that is likely still true today.

Hmm… I haven’t had an issue with Primal and mutes in the past. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll do some testing on our end.

Not all the clients support the same mute implementation. So if you switch between that might be the issue.
If you are seeing issues in Nos, lmk.

They do not seem to understand how the feed is populated. How to find people. How threading works. I think we forget that there is a learning curve for twitter bc we’ve been using it for so long. In general they just didnt understand how it worked so they gave up.

In user research multiple participants mentioned that the “Twitter UX is xperience” is not intuitive. It requires people to think.

There’s an assumption the US legal system is fair and leans towards justice and that is not true. Trump’s legal troubles are a distraction from the fact that we have 3 geriatric men of questionable competence running for president and a sitting president who thinks its fine to bring in the police for peaceful resistance to US funding of a massacre. We are in real trouble with no discernible leadership to get us out of this mess.

I like the framing of a holistic approach to future technology development. I also think we should be mindful of how we use energy intensive technologies.
