Hey Nostr - What's your take on this: I have been toying with the idea of creating an npub for This Week in Bitcoin. And then posting show releases and news there, but also maybe making it easier to tag for feedback/show ideas? Or is it simpler just to keep it to my personal account, IE, only one account to follow?
