Today I took a break from my meat-only diet. I hope you’ll forgive me, but I’m Italian: pasta with tomato sauce is in my blood. 🍝

Seeing the most die-hard Primal users drooling over Wisp is priceless. "Wisp... Just works."

Picasso was an old fox, or a 'paraculo', as we say in Italy.

I'VE BUY THE DIP, YOU?

I’m glad I haven’t seen the Cash App Wand here on Nostr yet.

Many artists came to Nostr and left. I'm still here. Not because I'm stronger or more consistent. It's something simpler and more human: I found my own way of moving with the current. Freedom without structure, without immediate returns, without clear feedback for many, it becomes silence. And silence, if you mistake it for emptiness, pushes you away. I know that silence. It's the same one I find in front of a canvas when the mark won't come, when the painting gives nothing back. I don't read it as failure. I read it as space. Nostr doesn't reward speed. It doesn't reward vanity, except in brief flashes. It rewards a quiet, almost agricultural resistance: sowing without knowing if it will rain. Many come looking for a mirror. I've instead accepted that, in here, the mirror is sometimes absent but this doesn't make what I do any less real.

Nostr doesn't have a protocol problem. It has a people problem. We've built clients, chats, communities, marketplaces, and streaming apps that often don't talk to each other. The result? 1,000 users spread across 100 different places experience a network that feels empty. New users don't want to learn about relays, NIPs, and client differences. They want to join, find people, and start interacting. Instead of building more islands, let's build a shared "Nostr Core Experience": • A minimum interoperability standard for clients, communities, chats, marketplaces, and streaming apps • Identity, profiles, contacts, notifications, and messages available everywhere • Shared discovery of people, content, and communities • A unified onboarding experience • Public certification for projects that follow these standards The next breakthrough for Nostr isn't a new protocol. It's making one network feel like one network. Otherwise, we risk building the freest network in the world... while making it harder and harder for people to find each other. Thank you so much for reading this far. 🙏🫂🎨

Discover what my amazing art lovers have to say about me.

Hey Nostr, every now and then it's worth introducing yourself to those who don't know you yet. My name is Carlo Isolabella, known as isolabellart. I'm an oil painter. I've shared my work on various platforms over the years. But only here on Nostr have I found real connections — dozens of paintings sold to nostriches, shipped around the world with complete trust and no friction. My paintings draw inspiration from the visible beauty of the world and from everything that exists just beneath its surface. If you're curious, visit my site to explore my work and buy original paintings in Bitcoin:

I’ve just read a comment on Twitter that says, “If you’re doing a 9-hour job, it’s because that’s what you want to do with your life!!! Otherwise, change it!!!” The “where there’s a will, there’s a way” philosophy has really messed with your heads.
