I have found the project description a little confusing, the title "Decentralized social network fueled by Bitcoin." is too broad and doesn't much help, you are building some sort of marketplace for PWA apps? I would put more technical details on it. Please don't be discouraged by the lack of feedback, but I think the funding would be easier if you have some sort of prototype going as most people will fund projects that they are already using it to support the development.

Damn I just removed that required one-liner snippetby turning it into an empty space. Let me rephrase it

Changed it but yeah its easier to show instead of describing with text. It's my first crowd funding campaign. Frankly, I wasn't expecting such a small 7 days time window from Geyser to reach a threshold in order to keep the campaign open. I thought I would just create the campaign and add PoW updates from time to time with no hurry.

That’s not what it means (correct me if I’m wrong, @Geyser ). What they’re trying to say is that in 7 days your project will be moved from the “Launchpad” section, where all new projects are showcased. They won’t delete it, it’ll just be available in its respective category, and will be harder to discover.

The project is a platform (a regular website with some tricks) that abstracts away the boring parts of making a nostr app like multi-account login/signing and notifications. Then devs are free to build simple Nostr apps that are just static websites that handle just one already logged-in user. It is supposed to help with app discovery too like app stores do.

Let's see. I think it goes to the graveyard after 7 days without reaching the minimum amount. But one can always start over again a campaign later.

What else will you abstract? Just abstracting login is not enough to justify this. Login is easy with bunkers and something like window.nostr.js. Or even if you don't think it is, that's the same thing the Spring browser tried to do, and you could do it on a platform by rehosting web clients and force-including a window.nostr global that implements NIP-07 even for people that do not have an extension, and done. But why? I think it could be more interesting if you done something different like abstracting the UI and providing all apps with a homogeneous theme, or doing what I said on the note above, or perhaps also abstracting relay pooling, connection and selection and smart relay picking on behalf of apps, I don't know.

I'm aware of bunkers and of that lib. I've already seen that mysterious lib's button floating around on some webapps ^^. Spring Browser is good and very similar but I think I can bring new ideas to the table that could work better, I hope. There are some problems when trying to rehost web clients like api calls that won't work from different domains or blocked iframe loading. For now I think if devs depend on my lib or on custom api calls to handle relay connection it may centralize things or be one more thing for them to learn. Though I definitely want to help handle things like user relay migration (copying events) that would be too much for every app to code and something the user shouldn't suffer with. Thx for the ideas. I've added some extra explanations to the bottom of the campaign page.

You can also addon the built-in nostr specific customazations on my browser having the built-in key management. Most of CORS issues would be mitigated if your features worked in the background of web extensions. I don't have much time to develop anything beyond the key management, but I'm open to someone else developing the built-in add-on! Note that it's firefox only, though.

Introduction - Documentation

Is it a custom firefox build? The <browser|window>.ssi was your addition I suppose. I want to use default browsers/web apis to lower adoption barrier.

One more thing I don't know if was clear: App storage is on relays (new spec). I thought of ways to ease the life of not just users but also devs.

7 days passed. It's like I said, campaign isn't listed anymore, the link now redirects to /project-not-found page. Graveyard it is

Damn. That’s cold.

Did you collect any sats through Geyser though?

Yes, ~32k sats. The contributions were sent to me as soon as they were made, after deducting the 5%. Geyser is overall very good.
