If you haven't given it a listen, you should!

We have interviews with nostr:nprofile1qqs8d3c64cayj8canmky0jap0c3fekjpzwsthdhx4cthd4my8c5u47spremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59uqs6amnwvaz7tmzwf3zu6t09uq3wamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e5kuen09uwm2xkq , nostr:nprofile1qqsrhuxx8l9ex335q7he0f09aej04zpazpl0ne2cgukyawd24mayt8gpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59uq3jamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarjv96xjtnrdakj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7f5uxyd , nostr:nprofile1qqs8nsk2uy2w529fs8n4tx60u7z553e4yx5dy2nxhw4elgjgawpqlaspzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43z7qg6waehxw309aex2mrp0yh8x6rfw3nx7unrv5hx7mn99uq3kamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wvdhkjmnxw4hxg6t59e3k7mf0m4t092 , and Alex Pacheco — none of whom are Christians. We also read great books on the problems and possible solutions to social media, including The Shallows and Digital Liturgies.

The goal is to be a resource for deep, rooted — and yes, Christian — thinking that the nostr community can draw on to design more human, and more soulful social media products.


People think Christians are slaves to rules, but the slavery is in sin. Living for Jesus is a privilege; a freedom like no other


Next on my list, can't wait!


Interesting app, a lightning network powered podcast platform: hallelujah


It's excellent. I learn so much technical stuff along with diving into the deep thoughts. Thank you


When are we going to talk about private DMs?


From: nostr:npub1y90z6st2se3atvhyfucdd3r82rdhy4xdh5k0sll2fs25nkt5sm2qdqay5r


Good question, asap? I'll DM you


Private DM, or metadata leaking DM? 😁


We can also do a zap.stream :)


Everyone will know


Please don’t look at mine lol


Is it the case that all the Amethyst livestreams are zap.streams? I was wondering earlier today. If so, I think a link or reference would be great within the app :)


yep :)


Let’s goooo


nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn we were discussing how bitcoiners are the early critical mass on nostr with the #damus team.

I believe key to bringing on steady growth could be speaking with non-bitcoin (i.e. folks who are on nostr not because of bitcoin) communities, and asking how might we make their nostr experience even better.

Take the Christian nostriches.

Are there non-bitcoiner Christian nostriches who joined?

Joined nostr and left (if yes, why)?

Joined and remain (why?)

How might we improve the experience for these folks, and make it even easier, more pleasant, and enticing to join nostr for more of these folks?


Hard to say, but probably. I haven't even started onboarding my friends onto nostr yet, because until recently I had no way to deal with porn. At this point, with WoT score I think things are safe and inoffensive enough that someone can wade into the shallow end. My people are much less interested in global social media than in local social media, so private groups may be more their speed. I'll start working on adoption once I have a good solution together for that.


That’s a fair concern. Do we need WOT if we have private relay? Do we need private relay if we have WOT?


I think they reinforce each other. A private relay is exclusive, but can still have subgroups who many not be interested in talking to each other (a politically divided town with angry outliers for example). WoT is enough to mute people you don't want to hear from, but not hide your content from them. So we need both.
