I grew up on AOL Instant Messenger and I’m tempted to vibe code a Nostr app that’s identical—same features, same door opening/closing sounds, lol. Has anyone done this yet? It’d be so cool to use it for private messaging. I haven't kept up, but how far have private DMs come on Nostr lately? I know we have a NIP for statuses, which was a notorious feature on AIM.

Good morning, Nostr! With the year coming to an end soon, what was your favorite app, new use case, or favorite moment on the protocol in 2025?
Also, what would you like to see improved in 2026 that would help more people stick around?
Good Morning Nostr. Getting ahead means starting before everyone else waits for the 'right time'. The best time to start a New Year's resolution was yesterday, so start today.
Want to try something fun? Take a picture of your Christmas tree and ask Gemini to edit Santa into the photo delivering gifts. Then, show your kids what the "security camera" picked up last night. Watch their heads explode! 😂
Merry Christmas 🎁 🎄
Merry Christmas, Nostr. I am a simple man. All I asked Santa for this year was the Bitcoin supercycle the influencers have been telling me about for multiple cycles now....
Hey Nostr, I'm looking for a Christmas movie to watch tonight 🎄🎁. What is the most underrated Christmas movie of all time?
Hope you’re all having an amazing Christmas Eve! 💜
Good morning Nostr. My baby girl is standing on her own for ten seconds at a time and just took her first steps! She's determined to get moving. She spends half the day standing up, falling, and getting back up. Where does the time go? It feels like time has gone at warp speed since she was born. Life is good though.
What is the state of Lightning wallets for Nostr zapping? I tried zapping people who commented on my recent post, and it seemed like half of them failed. I think most were people who have Alby but, I guess, never updated to self-hosting? I am still using a centralized solution, Coinos, but the most functional seems to be the Primal Lightning addresses—another centralized solution. Who is using self-hosted solutions for zaps, and what is the best seamless solution you’ve found compared to centralized ones? Any friction is a turn-off to new people.
