Someone should probably offer domain name reselling and a website setup service using this scheme. Much better than trying to sell advanced Nostr tools for the current pool of 34 Nostr users. Could be expanded to something like
tube.sh - Members-Only Content Creation Services
Radical small business offering members-only content creation services to content creators and their fans.
 too. Once someone is looking for a website and you tell them there is also livestreaming, paywalled content and closed chat/forum groups, all within a network that already exists with tons of clients they'll have to be impressed, right? View quoted note →

@reya what is this? "No room for message"? image They keep showing up, I don't understand. I have 10 of these in the screen, one vanishes, a new one appears. They were there yesterday too when I tried, but I was running out of patience so I didn't tag you.

If we had infrastructure for curating entries, allowing groups to vote on proposed additions and deletions and simple UIs for viewing the list of all items in a list then it would be easy to get rid of the NIPs repository. It's sad that after so many years all we have are "feed" views. And GitHub continues to be a better platform for browsing and updating text lists of things. Notice that I'm not asking for much. We would also have to get rid of the NIP numbers, but we could just say "the longform NIP", "the badges NIP" etc and it wouldn't be hard to know what were people talking about. But if you're reading this and thinking about a complicated system with events being published with votes, proposals, lists of replaceable events with other lists inside or whatever absurdity, please stop. Just use a relay and normal events inside, add and delete. Custom write policies, standard Nostr read API. #pyramid has a moderated subrelay that is probably 25% there already. If you disagree please let me know. View quoted note →

I just realized people talk about "Android". They know that many different phones and even other types of devices all speak this same "protocol" called "Android". They know that there are many different apps that can be used in Android but not on iPhones. They know that there are many flavors of Android, but that there is something that is the same underlying all of them. It's not a perfect analogy with Nostr, but regardless of that UX specialists would have led us to believe that no one would be able to understand or care about such technical details, and that these technical details should be hidden at all costs, but they're proven wrong again. Are there other examples of this phenomenon? I guess there are also email, podcasts, SMS messages, web browsers and HTML (although this is a bad example it's still valid).

YouTube has a subscriptions page that used to show me just videos from channels I've subscribed to in chronological order. It was great. Now most of the screen is filled with some recommended content "for me" (or "most relevant", who knows, they're still tweaking things apparently), which is basically just reordering the same few videos I have in my subscription, such that I can never get a clear picture of what is new and what isn't or what I have already watched or skipped and what I should take a look at.
