 Seems like #nostr is mostly USA focused. I’m wondering how we can attract other countries to join. There is translations implemented but what is missing point here 🤔 
 👀 
 Gotta spread the message outside somehow. I definitely know that a tiny Ukrainian community that been on here left for some reasons 🤷‍♂️ seems like we need to figure it out as well 
 Nah. You just loud ;) 
 create a mentorship program 
 A lot of users from Thailand as well for some reason 
 🤔 gotta search my global properly but based on my interactions almost everyone is from the 🇺🇸 
 Check #siamstr to find Thai users 
 Ahhh okay the hashtags 😂 
 I see a bunch of Japanese notes quite often 
 Yeah Japan has a bunch of users as well. They use Nostr very different from everyone else though. I had to unfollow all of them because the air replies were too much for me. 
 How are they using it? 
 All their notes are top level notes. They don’t reply or use mentions, so your feed gets blasted with tons of notes if you follow them. They use Nostr more like a chat room. 
 One giant global chatroom 
 Interesting, do y’all know what clients they’re using? 
 🤷🏻‍♂️ 
 I think a lot of them use Rabbit

 I was seeing all of their notes until snort stopped loading my follows feed. Need to tinker with relays probably. 

Japan chat is quite busy because of the reasons you stated. 
 It sucks that DeepL doesn’t support Thai :( so purple translations don’t work. May need to integrate other translation apis. 
 I think translations is a core of nostr and maybe turned on by default during onboarding 🤔 
 LA 🤙 
 If you want more Indians, translations will not help at all. Initially you'll get the Indian tech crowd, if enough devs, techies talk about it. Then you'll get normies, if nostr can offer an Insta private account, or FB friends like experience  
 @jb55 remember I mentioned about switching themes inside the client few weeks ago? Idk if it’s possible but what I think is you go into settings click “Facebook theme” option and you have the same experience as there. Click bitcoin theme and it opens up zaps. Something like this 
 Only theme we need https://i.nostr.build/KGKJ2.jpg  
 Dude ! 
 🦙🍑💢 
 The best! 
 I don’t you can recreate this level of artwork anymore. The skills are lost. 
 It really whipped the llamas ass... 
 You old enough for this!!! I thought this would be before your time. 
 those were the days. 

I can even recall the feeling just by looking at this picture 😁 
 💯 
 Our justice Alexandre de Moraes is doing a great job attracting Brazilians to #nostr recently.
