Yayy thank you!
Tysm!!
Best way to get your home feed populated to check out the following list of people you like and copy some
Ty so much for all your help!!!
Roger that. Thank you!!
It’s a little weird at first because you’re not being told what to look at. No real feeds except live universe. Take your time and find people and content that interests you. Setup/link a bitcoin wallet to participate in true value exchange. Welcome to the open protocol. It’s not just for messaging, but it’s great for that too!
Welcome 🥳
Thank you so very much!!
Welcome
This is a dumb question but what are relays?
welcome! 🫂💜
💜🤙💜
Welcome! 💜👾
Welcome to Nostr
You follow peeps, you engage in conversations, you zap, you get zapped
Easy
Welcome! You posted, you set up your lightning wallet. Looks like your all set! #plebchain
💜🫶💜
I see a lot of people using 🫂 is that a special emoji on Nostr?
Ty 🤙 !!
Dumb servers that receive posts from smart clients. Sort of the opposite of most platforms. Nostr is actually a protocol. Developers are adding some interesting features/services on relays that you can opt-into though.
Welcome! It just works!
Welcome! This functions similar to Twitter for user experience, but your secret key can be used for other clients (apps). Plus we send sats!
Just like this! Welcome 😊

welcome to nostr!
Welcome! You just live freely and send notes. Send zaps while you can!
Welcome to the future!
Welcome!
Welcomen. You say a thing, someone else says a thing, someone else says a thing about another thing, you say something about the thing.
Repeat.
👋🏻🧡👙
Hey 👋 I am new too 😃
It's quite easy and I really enjoy it.
I am using Plebstr and Amethyst on Android - works well (still able to #zap)
Hiii!!!
Hiiii 🫶
Thank you very much 🤙🤙🤙
Followed :)
Living free is what I’m about. Ty!
You’ve come to the right place.
I like the future!
tysm - also your music is 🔥
I’d like to say something about the thing you responded to on my thing. THANK YOU !!
Nostr official friends!
Thank you.
Not my music obvi. I'm a Filmmaker/photographer.
But I appreciate you. I keep hearing that which is interesting because I always thought I had terrible taste and musical A.D.D.
Tysm - I like easy. And I think I’ll like zapping. Thank you!!
👋🏾👋🏾
Thank you! Jw - What does #plebchain mean?
My pleasure.
Btw, I’m now following you 😄
It really just worked. Damn. 🤙🤙 Ty!!
Add some relays to your profile. Depending on which client you’re using you can just look at someone else’s relay list and add them straight from there. This will improve your experience 🤝
Ohhh What other clients are people using it for? And thank you so much!!
So easy! Thank you very much.
Welcome 🤙
What does adding relays do exactly? Excited! And thank you for your help!!
Thank you very much 🤙
Relays are the computers on the network that store (and relay) all the data. Having a few more will ensure that all your notes get archived, shared, and will be searchable later on. Plus it can help speed up the loading times!
No problem, psyched that you’re here and curious and asking questions.. keep at it!
Damus is the most popular on iOS and Amethyst on Android, but new ones are popping up almost daily. Nostur, Plebster are also mobile clients. Iris, satellite.earth, snort, are good desktop clients. I use about 6 right now to test and learn, but go at your own pace.
Followed.
Welcome!
Tysm I feel very welcomed!
This is insanely helpful. Thank you for breaking this down.
🥹🥹🙏🏾
Woah! A lot to learn/explore. Thank you for being so helpful.
Anytime friend 💜
Merci 🤙
Welcome 🥳
What desktop client do you personally recommend?
I like Iris and satellite.earth for different reasons. Iris is the closest to model the traditional, but it’s a little slow, but satellite.earth is great design and has a breakout for reading threads which is really smooth.
Thanks 🙏🏻

Greetings 🖖 👾
It looks like you've figured it out. Welcome.

Qq - is there a place I can see new users who join? Do I just scour global?
scour global for what you like.
Roger!
Welcome to #nostr
Ty 🤙
Sorry long time for the response, but it’s basically like a hashtag and will help new users grow their audience and connect with others. It’s a nice way to interact with the community
Don’t apologize. Appreciate you!
Of course. This place is great and very welcoming so whatever questions you have, ask away and your almost guaranteed to get your answers
I’m floored at how kind people are. Super magical place!
One last question - what is a Nostr nest? How do I join them? Can anyone start one?
I haven’t personally been a part of one or hosted one, but i think of it like a Twitter spaces, if anyone wants to correct me, please do so!
