The ability to access #nostr without a username and password combination is one of the most underrated features of the design.
Generate a public/private key pair and use it on any Nostr client. No need to be tied to any one client/app.
What if nostr had private groups?
Similar to private profiles or FB groups that could be private (or public if desired).
Could be done with a private relay, but for the masses, it would be awesome to be able to ditch FB because there’s the option to share just with encrypted groups, family circles etc. on Nostr.
Thoughts? #[0] #[1] #[2]
In a recent interview, #[0] mentioned nostr as great, but that it doesn’t solve the bot problem (think unlimited impersonation bots spamming the network).
He’s talked about it before, but an orange check that involves proof of work.
Paid relays are a step in that direction, but will we end up centralizing around just a few paid relays?
I’m not suggestion an orange check, just wondering what others thoughts are as the protocol grows and gains more traction.
