Anyone have any advice for blogging platforms? Want to convert my blog to static for speed and versatility (it’s currently on Wordpress) but also still want a gui editor with easy image support (drag/drop). I’ve also heard of people hosting their blogs over Nostr, so preferably a platform that integrates with Nostr.

Is there work underway to fix search in Nostr? Damus’ search is useless, and without a good search mechanism, discovery is hindered. Maybe ideas could be taken from bluesky, relying on large centralized indexers to recommend content? Obviously this is not ideal but what other options do we have? #grownostr

It seems the most commonly pitched Reddit alternative is Lemmy. However, it’s federated, and as I’ve previously said, federation does not seem like a viable solution. I hear there is work to build reddit-like communities on Nostr with NIP-172, which looks promising.

The main issues I see with anything federated is that people will not run their own instances. Users will flock to large instances, and everything will be centralized again. And even if people did decide to host their own instance, I predict it would end up somewhat like how hosting your own email server is. Your reach is at the mercy of the moderation of the larger instances, and who they choose to federate with. But someone smarter please explain how I’m wrong.

What do people think about the AT protocol vs Nostr vs ActivityPub? It sounds like the AT protocol was designed to fix shortcomings with ActivityPub, namely portability, but how does it stack up with Nostr?

How do I switch back to the old Damus icons? Not a fan of the new ones
