What we can do to make nostr more friendly to all:

1. Better onboarding: follow lists of hashtags

2. Other login methods: keys over email. Don’t shoot the messenger!

3. Hardware key management

4. Abstracting away technical info and using progressive discovery to learn over time

5. Better accounts to follow recommendations (news feeds, clone feeds, non-bitcoiner recommendations)

6. Mute lists - option to edit

7. Personalized algos (optional)

8. More content

9. Regular user testing implementing the feedback

10. Micro targeted communities - identify which communities are good candidates and go after them.  (Streaming, music, as examples)

11. Traditional marketing. Every client worries about their own marketing.

12. SEO

13. Community incentives - incentivize “leaders” to onboard their circles

14. Normie clients with bitcoin stuff disabled by default optional in settings

Probably 100 other things

Have you seen this client? Their onboarding wizard is p nice and is trying to solve a lot of the problems brought up in #nostrasia and generally spoken about as major complaints (too much b!tcoin content).

What about a username and password, but in the backend it is the hash or a random algorithm that creates the key pair? Not sure how that works, doesn’t solve the lost key or ‘password’ though.

Looks like a good start. Made me laugh too 😂 I love my daily dose of #nostr

there is not “too much” of anything. that is the natural expression of the people who populate nostr.
i dont talk about bitcoin all the time because i’m interested in other things.
if there IS “too much” of something its people trying to turn nostr into something it isnt because they long for profit and popularity, and are too controlling to allow things to grow naturally.


how come you are not one of the speakers ? #GetPurpleKatOnStage!


Stop trying to market nostr. Real estate agents don't market hammers.


Looking forward to your #Nostrasia talk


Thanks for your feedback 🤗


Learn about #decentralization, #bitcoin & #nostr


Gamifying learning about clients would be cool. If there was a way to collect badges from doing certain things in the client and show off you've done it.

It worked for PlayStation and Xbox games and might encourage users to collect more.


Agree. Designed part of that for snort


I know its dumb... but if non custodial wallets are popular to onboard. Wouldnt a non custodial nostr service do it too? Just think if a service held relays, gave you your account using an email and can recover through it, also advertise who is posting and is popular on said service, and also provide services directly like translations and etc. Think the all in one service for nostr onboarding could help.


I think a big thing i missing here on this too is making it so when you follow someone it automatically will add relays that best provide that persons content.


yes yes yes yes yes!


Re 5: But if we don’t give them Bitcoiners to follow, how will they get OrangePilled? It’s so a cool thing that Nostr is doing, even if it started out as not the intention. Maybe we keep it a hidden intention 😅 #OrangePill all new comers 😎🧡


Think of it this way
 Nostr is a tool a hammer. It will be judged by the houses built with it
 And no real estate agent markets hammers
 Or builders. Unless the builder is frank lyod wright
