 If you are a bored developer maybe you will be interested in implementing simple NIP-23 Nostr sources support on some open-source RSS reader apps out there for something like $800 each. 

The goal is to make it work, record some screencasts and open PRs. If they will merge or not that's their decision and we don't care.

The feature is just to support pasting npub, nip05 or nprofile URIs, use relay hints if available or fetch write relays from kind:10002, then fetch new kind:30023 articles from these relays periodically just like the app already fetches RSS feeds from URLs. No need to bother with comments, likes, anything for now.

Eligible apps:
