quoting nevent1q…dg2qWe’ve released a big update of nos.social (npub1pu3…tfch) in the leadup to the launch of of the creators and journalist residencies.
Check it out: note1kne…dqe3
We’re working on performance and hygine in the app while we also redesign the user discover and search functionality. In the last few months we did about a hundred user interviews with current, former, and future Nostr users.
We found a few things which jumped out at us.
* We discovered that the Nostr community is broadly considered friendly and welcoming.
* Almost everybody wanted there to there to be content on other topics beyond bitcoin. This was the case with both people who considered themselves bitcoiners and also those who didn’t identity themselves as bitcoiners.
* Most Nostr users felt welcomed, but a small number of people were agressive in harassing other users. We need to develop decentralized permissionless solution to these problems if we want Nostr to grow to it’s potential with hundreds of millions of users.
To address these issues we’ve created a program to highlight content about other topics beyond bitcoin. These folks are using bitcoin, they’re being setup with lightning wallets, and promoted in the app to help them be discovered without the centralized algorithms. Once this launches it’d be great to welcome these creators and journalists and validate the business model of micropayments and subscription content over zaps.
