🎙️Quote of the Day🎙️

“A lot of Bitcoiners only use Lightning a few times a year when they head to conferences. They pay for food, merchandise, etc. while at a Bitcoin conference and then don't use Lightning again until their next one. It's a sad truth. Lightning should NOT be a novelty. Nostr is the best damn use case for Lightning to date. This point needs to be sung from the mountain tops.”

Zapathon Themes! (npub1w20…nhed) Speaking of #zapathon, if you noticed cats 🐱 taking over your feed yesterday, now you know why! Zapathon Themestr was started by a couple of nostriches that love zapathon, as a fun way to suggest themes for your memes to keep things fresh each week. We all know #zapathon has a mind of its own, but if you want to participate in the suggested themes then be sure to give them a follow! 💜⚡️

Set your zap targets 🎯 to @Karnage to show your appreciation for all the good stuff that feisty furball does for the #nostr community! All zaps to this account will be directed there until next Monday. Want to target zap another cat? Do it! 🥰 They will appreciate the love & support!

sarakeshtix (npub1zum…pl4x) is developing Memestr, a new #nostr client focused on memes, humor, and trending content. Still a work in progress but you can try it out at https://memestr.app

quoting note1s0s…084v

Since i am tagged in this note, I would like to take the opportunity to answer it.
Karnage (npub1r0r…q9ac) Can add his own views 😀

memestr is definitely usable and enjoyable. It is a social network for memes and trending content and it is in working state. That means, feel free to play around https://memestr.app

Is it completely ready for seamless user experience? No. Its a work in progress and with time it would grow into a more stable product. More people are coming in to contribute and I am sure in next 2-3 months, it would be a well established nostr client dedicated to a special community of people who likes memes and humor. Without a lot of status texts.

Martti Malmi (npub1g53…drvk) Iris and Snort are working on the same code base. The old Iris can still be accessed at old.iris.to.

quoting note1gad…2fph

Wow, Iris is Snort and Snort is Iris.

We're now working on the same codebase (from Snort) to avoid duplicate work and get more done. MIT license. Looking forward to bringing together the best of both clients.

If you prefer the old Iris, you can find it at https://old.iris.to.

Gzuuus (npub1gzu…a5ds) Nostree v0.1.4.2 Added summary field, improved hashtags and bugfixes, added e.nos.lol relay, njump.me for nostr links, added magnet prefix, minor bugfixes.

quoting note1clw…c2mv

## Nostree release note
### v.0.1.4.2 Added summary field, improved hashtags and bugfixes, added e.nos.lol relay, njump.me for nostr links, added magnet prefix, minor bugfixes

Before I start I would like to thank OpenSats (npub10pe…n34f) again for the opportunity to receive their grant, thanks to this the project can continue to grow in a more sustainable way. 💜

This is a minor update of nostree, and we could say that the most important new feature is the new field for the lists, "summary", with which you can make a brief description of your list, you can see it here for example: https://nostree.me/gzuuus/repos (maximum 120 characters) (thanks Tony (npub10aw…5ys7) ), also have improved the display of hashtags in the explore section, and has added a hashtags search engine. Also thanks to the pr made by dtonon (npub1000…vwqk) all nostr links will now open using njump (formerly nostr.com). Another new change has been the addition of e.nos.lol relay, and the magnet: prefix for links in lists, yes, now you can share your magnet links too 🧲. On the other hand and as every update some small bugs have been destroyed :)

Finally I would like to talk about what's coming next for nostree. This is the last update in which I add new features until the next phase is completed, developing a design system, from now on I will focus on developing and improving the design of the application, thanks to the prototypes of Karnage (npub1r0r…q9ac) and nielliesmons (npub149p…722q), I will also focus on developing the customization of the user pages, this way in the next releases users will have the ability to customize themes for their personal pages, this is very cool, and the truth is very exciting for me to develop. I imagine a kind of mySpace coming back to life with a new spirit and capabilities thanks to nostr.

With nothing more to add, thank you for following the project, I hope these new features and the new ones to come will excite you as much as they do me.

Greetings, love y'all

quoting note1www…063q

A small update to the follow recommendations during profile creation. They are now dynamic (via the nostr.band trending profiles API).



This is part of the thenostrworld (npub1nst…rg5l) hackathon work. Shout-out to brugeman (npub1xdt…ntxy) for the API.

While testing, it became clear that the transition from creating a profile to then viewing it is not smooth, so that will be the next thing to improve.
