Oddbean new post about login | logout Good news everyone! 💜🚀 After a year of haggling with the domain troll who got nostr.org we managed to get it back! The site will forever be a pure/simple protocol splash page. Repo has committee of great nostr people to keep pure. Extra special thanks for Elidy for graphics and theme 🤩 https://github.com/lnbits/nostr.org https://image.nostr.build/59ba7aa0aa1a574bb34e64f77dffd77826cb79c6a1c5a1f9d4de111cd421fc76.jpg

I'd like to help with the Spanish translation!
what ever happened with nostr.com and your attempt to sell it for 5 million dollars? i assume it never sold? are you going to commercialize and roll nostr.com under the lnbits wing now that you have nostr.org to dedicate towards the the protocol?
I didn't sell to shitcoiners, despite them offering eye-watering money - this also scared me into pursuing dot org much more, as I imagined they would try and get for shitcoins. Having dot org does make for profit activity less evil on dot com, as it was being a protocol and commercial page before. Dot com will make this very clear and have load of links to dot org, and won't overstep 👍
thanks, ben.
hang on, so you saw this nostr protocol that is for the people, created entirely someone else, and you decided to go and buy the dot com domain to make money out of it, and now you own the dot org and you want to be called the saviour? that sounds really messed up. i thought you were the good guy.
Well not entirely created by someone else 😂 Its well documented me asking for months when our community could be counted on 2 hands for someone to secure these domains. I eventually secured (at a substantial personal cost may I add), shitcoiners offered me $5m for dot com and I didn't sell, sooooo
I see. Well the concept of Nostr was created by fiatjaf and I can understand why from a very tech perspective a domain may not seem relevant then. Even now, a domain is a marketing and sales portal. And a bridge from the traditional internet to this renaissance internet. Shitcoiners probably had some bad intentions, but your intention is to make money out of this. For every dev out there working on Nostr to bring in people, nostr.com might be the first thing people see - which means hundreds of millions of users. How do you plan to generate profit from the website ? And who benefits out of it?
This is great, thanks! Can we get something up on nostr.com directing folks to nostr.org and making it clear at least for now the .com is a developer docs site. I know you’ve got some ideas about what to do with the .com in the future, but we can start getting SEO juice and traffic to the user facing nostr.org site while that’s in the works.
I use the dot com site almost every day to link to stuff like your post nostr.com/nostr:nevent1qqsv0jtpzhgwwg9qts0ghm3qvklftg4fwap7enyhgvfd40ey999q37cpzdmhxue69uhhyetvv9ukzcnvv5hx7un8qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqg6waehxw309a3kzcmgv5ezuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgtmkxyq3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwpexjmtpdshxuet567gqlw
This ☝🏻
Great job, @Ben Arc 🤙💜
you fucking rock!
Awesome! The site looks great and feels much more friendly than the dot com. Nice work!
Would be good to showcase the "other stuff" in the apps and web apps section. @zap.stream @NWC @wavlake come to mind
No idea, someone who swiped when I stoopidly let elapse back in the day.
Can you imagine damage if someone used for shitcoin scam of the like. Phew
Glad it has been sorted
