Hi! My name is Amy and I am new here. My amor @Duarte ⚑️ introduced me and said this is the place on the internet that keeps it real and loving. So here I am 😊 What keeps me sane is being with animals and my loved ones. Part of the time I live with a lovely community off the grid in central Portugal. The other part I live in The Netherlands at the coast with my family. What keeps me in the now are the breathtaking views in nature and being with loving creatures. I bet I will show some of those moments on here. Thank you for creating this place and participating in this experience. Happy to be here ❀️ #introductions image

Welcome to #Nostr ! image Suggestion to find whom to follow: Follow topics using hastags, you can follow hashtags... Suggestion for Nostr Clients: Exclusive for Android: @Amethyst is an excellent choice, feature rich, supports privacy, tiktok like feeds, multi user, supports #Amber (more security), #TOR, private chats, excellent look and feel, it is ahead of most clients by far. Working for Android and iOS: @0xchat is a good alternative, more like Telegram, including chat groups, channels and voice and video calls, all encrypted e2e. It is powerful with privacy as well, it has secret chats and it supports Amber, #TOR in the settings "Use SOCKS proxy" (just install Orbot and in the settings be sure it allows background starts you don't need to have it running as VPN). It has a wallet built in and interesting features of its own. Exclusive for iOS: @Damus (users talk positive about this client, give it a try) Suggestion for Wallets: Depends on your technical level and how much time are you willing to spend understanding and setting them up: 1. The impatient with no time to waste and who doesn't care to use custodial wallets (your money...): Go for Wallet of Satoshi (https://www.walletofsatoshi.com/), add it to your profile, it doesn't have the NWC (network wallet connect) setup, but you really don't need it. When you try to zap someone, the wallet will open and the invoice will load, easy and setup free. You are set. (they don't work in USA, unless you use a VPN) 2. For the impatient with no time but looking to have a non custodial option plug and play. The most complete web based non custodial wallet is definitely @Mysterious Hamster, https://coinos.io, rich with features, you can receive emails every time you are zapped too. Very cool wallet, the dev team rocks, they are doing the good work creating more Bitcoin awareness and helping businesses to accept it. There is more... Coinos does support ecash, Bitcoin L1 (legacy, segwit and taproot), LNURL, #Bolt11, #Bolt12, LIQUID, and the cherry on top... now it supports signing in with a NIP-55 Signer like #Amber, Nostr Connect or Browser extension, you get as well a cool customize LNURL, like your username@coinos.io to receive your zaps from or SATs from wallets that support BOLT11 & BOLT12. What is not to love! 3. The curious one with not much technical expertise but eager to learn: @Minibits (mobile app, you can buy from them your own address like yourname@minibits.cash BOLT11), the app is well polished, user friendly and the devs are hands on, responsive and active in the #Nostr community. 4. The tech savvy 4.1 GetAlby running AlbyHub (a bit pricey unless you do all yourself, not my cup of tea, but people in the community loves them) 4.2 npub.cash - get your npub followed by @npub.cash and use it as your wallet address to receive anonymous private #LN payments and #cashu payments. You can pay in the wallet web site for a custom address as well (cool) Check my nostr site: https://rod.npub.pro You can get your own site, give it a try, start writing! visit npub.pro Subscribe to my free substack content: Last but not least: Enjoy Nostr!

Welcome! Few things you should know: 1. get a check mark in #Nostr, there are few options, I suggest nostrcheck.me, once you get it, edit your profile and update your Nostr-Address, not having it will hide you in some clients 2. follow hashtags, a good way to find like minded people 3. think of your nsec as your Bitcoin private keys, act accordingly 4. chose a client that respect your privacy, meaning, you can sign in with a Signer protecting your nsec, it has TOR built in and above all, you can manage the relays you use. I suggest @Amethyst t 5. add your lighting address in the profile so you can get zap, few options out there, I suggest @Mysterious Hamster for most people have fun!
