Snort - Nostr
Snort is a feature-packed, decentralized social media client built on Nostr protocol. Fast, censorship-resistant, and open source.

I like the RSS+ idea. Did you know that all Substacks have an RSS feed (just add /feed to the end: yournewsletter.substack.com/feed)?

Why try to convince existing newsletter writers to post on long-form nostr if the existing feed can be used as a starting point?
