HELLO NOSTR! ✌️ Spent the lots of recent weekends and evenings putting together a new Nostr educational site. My plan is to continue to add to this to cover loads of other awesome Nostr clients and tools to help people get started. (and for you awesome people to share with your friends!) For now we have: 🟣 Simple onboarding via @primal 🟣 Nostr 101 🟣 Nostr protocol explainer 🟣 Nostr glossary 🟣 An intro to 'other stuff' 🟣 An intro to Nostr utilities 🟣 Some incredible video content from @Ben Sessions, @Derek Ross and @Student of Bitcoin It's early days and there's lots more to come. Project is on GitHub, and I welcome feedback, suggestions and external contributors. Would LOVE it if you could share this post for me to help get the word out! πŸ™ Thanks to pals @ODELL @OrangeSurf and @Seth For Privacy for their feedback l β™₯️ hellonostr.xyz

Amber/Amethyst is one of the next I plan to do. Will use some of this and credit you if that's ok?

I know I'm rarely (if ever) on Nostr, but I see my favorite robot doing amazing work I zap it and I reshare it. Keep kicking ass, @QnA πŸ”₯

hey! WIthout yet looking... the one thing that was SO HARD was how to get a TOTAL noob onto Nostr. I mean compare it to installing X on a phone. Has that improved much? So assume the noob is not literate with computers much more than using a browser or installing an app. Unfortunately the decentralised part of it MEANS they have to get to grips with keys... that is a tough ask for anyone new to decentralisation and even for some non-noobs! πŸ—‘οΈ Great work though!

Love the idea! When I was first onboarding I was slightly confused if it was better to sign up through a client like Primal or set up an Alby node first and then connect everything from that hub. Might be a good topic to cover for your resources.

Very nice! Primal was probably a good choice for simplicity however it may also reduce confusion if it included a warning that Primal doesn't connect directly to Nostr relays, a feature that can't be disabled in app and may cause then to see posts from relays they don't add, or miss posts from relays they did add. Much of nostr benefit is customizing the experience through relay management so they'll learn it eventually but possibly after frustration.

Yeah, it definitely has the best cross platform onboarding experience. Completely understand your point, but didn't want to dive too deeply into relays in this part of the site. The main aim is getting people off zero. I'll be doing many more intermediate and advanced stuff where we talk about relay selection etc.

Loads of great suggestions. Do you fancy making a PR? If not could you turn this into a GH issue for me to track?
