 Welcome aboard buddy. Setting up a profile and writing up a quick post to #introductions will help you connect with folks.

Relays are essentially algorithms/feeds or networks that you can subscribe to, allowing you to see the contents from those networks. You can kinda pick and choose between them depending on the level of privacy that you want, and if you're crafty you can create your own too.

https://primal.net tends to be pretty popular on desktops/web while Damus tends to be popular on mobile devices. I'm writing to you from primal while it looks like you're connected to ones like Damus.

Culturally, things are mostly open-source here so hacking away will help you a lot with engineers and designers (which is why you're here already) and generally we follow a "verify, don't trust" philosophy since we're dealing with Bitcoin and software.

 Hi juan, and welcome to #nostr!

Just checking your addresses... 🤓

▶️ #Nostr address (NIP-05)
❌ You haven't set a nostr address in your profile 🥺 Nostr addresses help verify that you're a real person. We'll give you one for free at "yourname@minestr.app", if you like. Just get in touch! 😊

▶️ #Lightning address (LN address)
❌ You haven't set a lightning address in your profile yet 🥺 Setting a lightning address allows anyone to zap you some #sats (bitcoin). An easy option for beginners to get a lightning address is the Wallet of Satoshi lightning app 😊

Once you've fixed your addresses, just post a note including #checkmyaddy and I'll check them again for you! 👌 I'll also send you some sats ⚡️
