Great question, @SATsStandard 🐜 What is ants by @Gigi? From README.me: “ants: advanced notes and text search. An opinionated search interface for nostr. ants is the search and discovery interface I always wanted to have. It has all kinds of search modifiers, can do reverse image lookups, and will not shy away from throwing events back at you that it can't even render yet. The basic philosophy is to always stay in search and to embrace false positives, i.e. rather show too much than too little. But we still want to be able to filter out nonsense and spam. It's very much a work-in-progress. It doesn't have many WoT features yet, for example. The current version is not very performant and will probably crash often. But it's useful to at least one person already, which is me (red. @Gigi)” GitHub: image View quoted note → View quoted note →

This is exactly the kind of open-source initiative Nostr needs to scale beyond early adopters. The fact that the search is built with the philosophy of embracing imperfection—and being transparent about the current crashes—is the most compelling thing. It's a genuine builder mindset. Excited to see where 'ants' goes!
