It's a great concept. I hope solutions can be found.

Hmm I have noticed this concern gets hand waved away as nothing. This makes me think this will forever be a niche thing.
Command your whole identity with a single key, but a single rogue app, or someone getting access to it somehow, and it is lost. People have a lot of energy and time tied into online identities. Being able to recover from lost or compromised keys is essential I think. Hopefully some work is done on that, I think a solution is necessary for Nostr to succeed.

Is that why there are so few users here 😂 if this is ever going to be a thing, not just a tech demo, real people need to be able to use it, not just tech nerds.

It's very different. Some ways good, some ways bad.
The "keys" thing is a blessing and a curse I think. It's great to enable easy sign in, and sharing your identity between different sites. But what about people who always lose passwords. Afaik there is no way to recover an account? That seems like a major missing thing for most potential users. Amber is a good start, but still, a key being lost or stolen means you basically lose your entire identity, with no possibility of recovery. 😬

I finally figured out how to "bunker login" with Amber. It could be made easier 😅
It took a few clicks to even find it, then creating a new entry, then copy pasting a link, then a notification I had to bring up with another click, then another screen where I had to select from some options. It's great that it works, but being more streamlined would be nice.

I'm just trying this out. I have a little bit of engagement, and haven't posted much. I don't think there's a ton of people here.
Nostr is a neat project, but is still very confusing. I think it needs more work before it's ready for normal people. I finally figured out how to "bunker login" with Amber. That was a struggle 😅

These both look like they could be good options with some work, but they are so confusing. I tried to make a new space on flotilla, and immediately there is a Bitcoin paywall for starting a relay. I thought notes could exist on any relay, that's what makes this censorship resistant?

This works just fine on mobile, and if nowhere near as confusing as either option you mentioned.

Nostr is a really neat idea, but it's not for normal people yet. I can't imagine a non technical user understanding a lot of this. My mom wouldn't have a chance 😂

I've used zenni before, 5 pairs for less than one cost at the optometrist. Glasses are way better when they become basically disposable. It's a racket, a monopoly preying on peoples health.

Multiple relays would be more resilient to server take down or blocking, an important consideration. This also makes it so one relay operator can't censor people, bypassing a problem common in the fediverse.

2025-03-28 16:48:15 UTC

- reply

And even when on the radar it becomes a game of whack-a-mole, stopping UK relay operators as they pop up & blocking international ones. Good luck to the ministry of truth 🫡
The greatest threat is probably removing apps from app stores. That would block a lot of people from accessing relays. It makes good web interface even more important. If they can be totally hosted on Nostr, without depending on centralized servers to host then, even better.

If the maintainer is anonymous, that might help. With Nostr there is no web host to speak of that can be punished, the data just lives on relays. It depends on if the interface needs a server to host. Can it be an app, or entirely hosted on Nostr somehow?

Bring able to be simply themed was a nice feature of traditional forums too. Most modern replacements just all look the same from community to community. Communities should have personality.

The embedding quotes is the important part I think. That way one can be on page 42 and still get context without having to scroll forever and read 20 pages of unnecessary posts. It's nice to have a link to jump back though.

Make old school forums, but decentralized. That interface worked so well for small communities, before being destroyed by junk like reddit & discord & telegram. Look to any older phpBB style forums. They still exist and people still use them. They just aren't VC friendly, or a hot "design" trend.
