Oddbean new post about login | logout Would love to see what you have in mind since this is a project I want to tackle too leveraging what I demoed a few days ago wrt account creation. What do you have in mind? Have you put together any sketches or goals, etc?
Yes. I saw your video. Haven’t put ideas down formally, but have been thinking about this for a while. Would love love love ❤️ to work with you on this! TBH nobody has more experience with nip-46 than you AND (as your video shows) nip 46 (native or web) key storage will be the glue that plugs new users into the entire Nostr ecosphere.
It all starts with a link or a QR code shared by an existing user. THIS “already invested user” is the key to onboarding success missed by others. Leveraging natural relationships to help people explore nostr is the key to keeping them interested. I’m gonna stay up late tonight to sketch a wireframe that demonstrates how this can work in an onboarding app.
Mock-up of new Onboarding client. Meet Me On Nostr An app for sharing nostr with friends. Do you love to share nostr with friends and family? Could you make use of a “QR code” app to get them signed up, following you, messaging you, and discovering your favorite people in one step? #grownostr #nostr #onboarding Feedback requested from nostr advocates, and devs and designers alike. (View mock-up on desktop, tablet or big phablet for readability) https://www.figma.com/proto/OLyx7impZHfyUPXNMZfqtO/nostrmeet.me nostr:note1hzqfzzmp64npz9wkh59zqcff07jm03hwpqjju0a2vvm6940mpjyq83rq8z
Some think good ideas are like assholes. Everybody’s got one, but only few can act on them. As a freelance designer AND developer of SMB and EDU web solutions for over 20 years, i might not be the smartest or most well known asshole in the room, but at least I get shit done. Whoever thinks nostr needs a dedicated onboarding client, check out this mock-up. With a bit of funding, some nip-46 guidance from pablof, and coding assistance from a junior Node dev, I am ready to deliver on this for the early new year. Please comment with your support. nostr:note1n56dpv3ck393nz9axmf5j9esnyaj642sfawqne4zs9ufy9865cvqu056gx
Wondering who might want an onboarding app to support nostr advocates in doing what they do best? See mock-up above Add comment bellow. @rabble @walker @Derek Ross Ross @Vitor Pamplona Pamplona @Magoo PhD @Strider nostr:note17vwud38r7cgct79jytgwelnlyzfq8mkx6sxe6xfpd6j50y5hu8lqytm5e9
We’re in the process of doing user research on this and more generally what will make the new user experience work in a way where they stick around and keep using nostr.
Does your research involve leveraging “in person” or “existing” social connections? There are a lot of hurdles (technical and conceptual) in nostr onboarding. GUI flows won’t tackle them all, but lots can be accomplished by having a real life friend to help pave the way. How has you researched looked at this variable? Have you considered what experienced wd be beneficial to grow the advocate base? Thanks.
Word of mouth promotion. Local onboarding support. Social recommendation engines. Web of trust solutions. Because nostr is a “different kind” of social network, developing tools for nostr advocates to share nostr with family and friends is how nostr will grow and scale. How can I help? nostr:note1ts9jvs2nzun37qqfdwf09faez4vzkx0cpfzaw38fl4k6sng78qyqs38ccy
