My 2 cents... Storybrand has good advice for how to approach this. You act as the guide and first present their problem and then guide them to the solution. Problem Statement: "You spend countless hours creating content, making memories and building a network on your social media accounts. Do you want to set your social media free from its walled garden? Are you scared that your account can be deactivated? Do you censor yourself to avoid being shadow banned?" Solution Statement: "There is a solution that puts you in control and ensure you never lose your content or your followers. Welcome to NOSTR, the social media protocol without the Big Tech gatekeepers. Avoid bundling choices and triggering fear reaction: I would change "Join thousands leaving Twitter for a protocol that puts you in control." to not include leaving twitter. It now looks like you also must decide to leave Twitter, which will trigger a fear reaction. Do not say anything about leaving Twitter, Facebook etc. Just focus on NOSTR. Respect is too vague: I am not sure 'Social Media That Respects You' captures the essence, because respect is too vague for me. 'Free your social media' could be an alternative. Or maybe 'Take Control of your Social Media'. Yes=Positive=Nostr / No=Negative=Big Tech: You have way too many No on the front page. Try and change it to a positive statement. No is negative while Yes is positive. Nostr is positive and Big Tech is negative. No should only be used for Big Tech and Yes for Nostr
I’ll have to scroll way too much to see the notification about zaps, it should be more present that you can earn and that it’s in #bitcoin Furthermore you could highlight the twitter migration tool & bridge, put it on the main page… 💪
Love the mission! 💜 Worked well: The step-by-step onboarding flow is a game changer. Most Nostr sites feel like an 'inside joke' for devs, but this actually feels like a welcoming front door. 🚪 Needs fixing: We need a clearer visual distinction between Relays and Clients. Newcomers often get stuck thinking they’ve 'signed up for an app' rather than joining a protocol. A simple infographic there would stop the bounce! Keep building! ⚡🚀

Centralized platforms have had it too easy for too long. Nostrich.Love is the bridge we've been waiting for! 🌉 Worked well: The tone of voice. It’s friendly, non-technical, and makes me feel 'respected' as the landing page says. Needs fixing: More 'What's Next' prompts after the setup. Once they have a key, beginners often feel like they’re standing in an empty room. Give them a 'Starter Pack' of interesting people to follow immediately!

Checked it out! 🚀 Loved how smooth the signup is, but the navigation could use a little love, it got me a bit lost at first. Can’t wait to see it even better!
What worked: The visual design and branding. It feels welcoming and modern, which is a huge breath of fresh air compared to the "dev-heavy" feel of early Nostr clients. What needs fixing: A "Find Your Tribe" feature. After learning the basics, users often bounce because they don't know who to follow. A curated directory of active NIP-05 verified accounts based on interests would turn a "lesson" into a "community." Keep building the bridge! 🏗️💜

Sure! When I mentioned signup, I was referring to the onboarding process that gets you started on the platform, it felt smooth and straightforward, which is really good for newcomers. As for the navbar on the progress page (https://nostrich.love/progress), I think it could be clearer and more intuitive. Maybe having more descriptive labels for each section and making the active page more visually distinct would help users understand where they are and what they can do next. Thanks!
This will help a ton of people in the near future! Congratulations really good work! The little birdy avatar is also so super cutee *_* , how can somebody not join! ~~~~~~~~ WELL DONE!! ~~~~~~~~~
I like Nostr a lot. it's how decentralized social media should be. Here are the few things that I don't like about it: 1- Very high volume of cached data: Your average Nostr client amasses a HUGE amount of data compared to X or FB for example. You can easily find 1 GB of data in one Nostr app after just ONE day of using. 2- I don't know what NIP is. Never found someone or something to explain that to me. 3- Tried linking my wallet many times and for some reason, it keeps failing and I have no idea why. linking your crypto-wallet is a pain in *** for regular users such as myself. I'm sure all the geeks here look down upon this behavior from their successful crypto-mountains. 4- There's a huge descrepancy between the Nostr apps and they're not working well with each other. I could be getting reactions from other apps such as Iris and won't be able to see them on Primal. I used Nostr via different apps simultaneously and some factions never get to others platforms at all. 5- A lot of times, it's kinda laggy and clunky. You cannot remove a reaction after it has been done within the same app, let alone remove it from another app. I think Nostr is a wonderful wonderful idea that is still in need of some serious work. Thank you.
Not necessarily the kind of review we're looking for - you reviewed Nostr not nostrich.love guides 😉 Nevertheless you've made some good points there and we can definitely improve based on this ✌️Thanks 🙏
Broken links fixed, landing page improved based on your feedback 🫡 Feel free to have a look and tell us what you think 😉
