(2 of 3) WHY A RESIDENCY? We heard from Creators both in Nostr and on other platforms that Discovery presents the biggest challenge for them. Instead of spending time creating their work, they are instead figuring out how to navigate the latest algorithmic changes. On Nostr Discovery is still in the early stages. The Creator Residency is a 2 month opportunity for Creators to focus on their content, while we help amplify their work across the network. Follow this account to be the first hear about the new arrivals or existing Nostr Creators you may not have known about. If you have friends or family who are frustrated by platform social media, share the program with them. https://www.nos.social/creator-residency Support the Creators in the program by following them, engaging with their content, or zapping them for their work!

(3 of 3) If you did not hear from Nos yesterday and you applied to the Creator Residency, please check your spam folder or Nostr DMs. There are a handful of Creators on Nostr who applied that did not schedule an onboarding session. We’re happy to include you in future cohorts!
