For the TikTokers in #introductions, we don't have media consumption in the ways that you're used to seeing, but we do have alternatives for media consumption. Amethyst for Android has a TikTok-esque media feed. Zap.stream is a live video streaming app. NostrNests.com is an live audio chat app. Flare.pub is a video sharing/watching site. Highlighter.com is a toolkit for creators to produce content for their subscribers.
Not to mention wavlake
This list is just a quickie and not the end all of Nostr awesomeness 🫂
They'd love Stemstr too.
Amethyst has a content tab that looks and feels like tiktok
Yep. That's why I said that 🤣🤣
Is there anything like that for iOS
Are there really new users coming in today, and not another round of Cassie’s? Just seems suspect - I assume TikTok still works for now… right? Did a few brave frens dive into TikTok to do some recruiting? You know I love new nostriches, so I hope you’ll forgive my skepticism 😉
Probably a little of both.

I just came from TikTok. I still works, but looking into alternatives before it doesn’t.
In that case, welcome to the last social/communication protocol you will ever need! Delighted to have you here — say the word if you have any questions on setup or anything else. If you add the tags #plebchain or #asknostr you’ll definitely get some feedback. Enjoy 🤙🤙
Okay, thanks.
Welcome 💜🤙🏻🫂 Nostr is a grassroots initiative being built by developers in their free time. We have a couple small startups building on Nostr, but the vast majority of people building here are humble devs pushing the envelope of freedom technology in their spare time. Nostr is very rough around the edges. A lot of things don't work, but wow, the potential and the love from the community is incredibly intoxicating. I dare you to embrace it. You won't want to turn back when you experience humans just being humans. Pura vida.
We've actually had some interactions so not all are bots. But I am right there with you on that skeptical front.
This is great info. Thanks.
If you have any questions just ask!
Great to know! Thanks :)
You're welcome.

Tap the 3 dots at the top right of a post. Each client is a little bit different, but on most that’s how. Then select “add bookmark”

You see, the thing with what you call consumption is something else. On Tiktok I am angaged all the time. The content is made directly for me. Here for now I'm testing this place. But if engagement will be low, I will not hesitate to just move where the attention is provided. I Wonder what is your plan to scale this
Here’s the thing Gaja, if you like to be spoonfed dopamine hits by an algorithm, #nostr simply isn’t the place for you - it’s just not how the users here are wired and as such no-one has built apps for it. Now if you like to get paid directly and instantly for your content, and want to cultivate your own community and feed, then you’ll have a great time here because all the Apps enable that! Once you see social media with micropayments integrated (you need to add a lightning wallet) then you’ll at least know what this place is all about
No, I do not want to be spoonfed with dopamine. The dopamine hits are everywhere now, so I'm glad that this app is one that does not want to support such effect.
That's the spirit! That's the essence of Nostr.
If you want an algorithm to control your feed, you can try the Primal app. But to get the most success on Nostr, you need to be your own algorithm and do the work yourself. Get back to being social and being human with one another. Welcome to Nostr. I do hope you give it a try here. It's addicting. 💜🤙🏻🫂
Short form video content is lacking because we lack that type of content creators here. Those videos can be made and shared here, but we just lack the makers.
That is a lie.
The availability of content or the lack of makers?
Some of us are artists but chose not to market here
I’m not arguing nuances. We can’t verify artists that don’t art. The short form video content scene isn’t here.
Right on @isolabell.art 🎨 has done it as well as others … it’s growing
I'm working on getting a few things started but it's tough when you work in a gold mine and work 7 days of straight 12 hour shifts at a time. The 7 days off are great, but i also have a family. It's slow but it's on the way.
Heard I come from a very long line of a Harlan county Kin & I’m workshopping ideas in my head on how to proceed best 🫂🙏🥰
As a filmmaker myself, it's hard to wrap my mind around this concept. I'm not techy nor a dev on any capacity to really articulate what I want. But I CAN say I like the Idea of #Creatr but I wish it wasn't so also you in the face with the subscribe stuff. Yes v4v I get it. But in most of these art sell kind of situations you sort of have to tease and entice to attract people in before they really do anything. I'm not a creator on creatr so I'm not exactly sure how it works to be fair. But I wish like my photography would just not be on creatr, zap each post you like man, in happy. But if I were to upload my films, I would LOVE to have it begins a paywall but I'm a regular post the video you see be the trailer for it. But if you click to my profile and pay, book you have the full film. Still the same wouldn't be for tiktok like videos. Is just want those on a regular relay where everyone can see, with the most viability, so I have the most opportunity for zaps. 🤷🏽 It's really a situation thing I think. Or maybe it's my artist lack of confidence and needing you people to blow up my ego. It just doesn't seem like putting all my photos and short form work would behind a pay wall would make anyone see it ever🤷🏽
You are the sexiest man alive and no one knows that more than you. That’s my shot at an ego boost 🤣🙏💜
😍 is working Tell me I'm clever
You want me to say No. So I will say you’re the most beautiful person ever. Infinitely humorous too. Clever … maybe 🤣
That's the spirit Im ever looking for in a partner. Boost my ego when needed. But know when to pop it when it's too big. Fuuuuuucccccccccccck You're not tank girl are you? Or Dita Von Teese? ...Brody Dalle? ... @𝓞𝓷𝔂𝔁.𝓥𝓲𝔁𝓮𝓷 ?? 😍🤍🖤🤍🖤😭
🤣🤣🤣. Those are nice fantasies. If I could pick a character it would be what someone else suggested: Æon Flux. Though I look nothing like the Goddess that is Charlize Theron. I rocked that haircut for years & her general vibe is who I’ve been in the past. With far less style. Blending in is best 🙃😊🙌
Drool
Hahahaha. Right! She’s a rockstar worth emulating.
I just have an artist $1000 last week on Nostr. Don't give up so easily here.
Videos shared here? This looks like a Twitter-like app, not a tiktok-like app
Someone just needs to build that experience. If you have Android, there's an Android app called Amethyst that has a TikTok style feed of videos.
Nostr is like the internet. There are many websites with different looks and styles, but they are all the internet. We call these clients. They can filter or focus on any specific type of content or style like twitter, instagram, etc. Many people that have been here wanted twitter like clients perfected because that’s where most of us left. There will be all kinds and already are many different ones. Look at nostrapps.com
Don't forget cornychat.com nostr:nevent1qqsvgdlg433ytyjn2l6gznf0y4m4k2e28ygjrd4dpkzsy8uqxs2g7fgprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvqgsr7acdvhf6we9fch94qwhpy0nza36e3tgrtkpku25ppuu80f69kfqrqsqqqqqpy6jsv9
https://slidestr.net/ is a cool photo centric Nostr app.
I want to shill lumina.rocks Still very early alpha but also mainly images centric
I don't know if I've seen this before... 👀👀👀
Maybe because I did not advertise it that much yet :)
Derek doesn't follow me, so he misses out on a lot of the cutting-edge stuff. Just saying.
Fixed.
Here's a list of cool nostr stuff https://wikifreedia.xyz/%22other-stuff%22-nostr-apps/1d7792404ebfae1ce8
Looks better, now. Less flat, and stiff. The next trick is to arrange the different-sized tiles in a pattern limiting blank space. A dense, varying grid. https://image.nostr.build/feda0f08694d57d94bd478ad1371b065316a4247a4a6220d1d7d10f24d4bdb8c.png
