not really it's something that i'd sign up for being funded to build in a heartbeat though i have all the libraries, i have a good relay to back it, and a good understanding of how to build one, would be fun, if i could just quit my main gig chasing after rainbows building social network grids on shitcoins

Broke millennial here but if I were to pretend: what would a funding request for such a thing look like, how much for what outcome? I assume to get you out of a main gig, that would be a lot since you have stability and income to invest in Bitcoin. Is it just like grant/gift or is it an investment with ownership? I'm assuming with this stuff it's all just "gift" for love of free speech as the return of investing in Bitcoin is likely greater. Also I'm thinking about NPR funding model where a big donor promises to matche small donations so it kinda restores some market signal.

nah, just literally "i wannan TUI client for nostr that is complete" and everyone who wants this throws sats and someone makes it happen it's not a gift, it's me delivering a product, like a boss hires a worker to do a job

Is there a Project page with Bitcoin address. Dumb question what is TUI. Is this a client that doesn't swallow a full length post when you switch screens like Amethyst? I will look it up, but just saying that's how dumb I am and maybe I'm not only one.

no, but i have one on geyser for my relay your daily reminder i made a thing https://geyser.fund/project/realy but i haven't poked at making a text user interface based nostr cliend and as far as i knows, nobody has really taken it that seriously yet

sorry buried the answer about TUI Text User Interface it's like GUI for video cards versus for a text console terminal (monospaced, grid layout, paints using TTY commands like form feed and line feed and tab and shit)
