🚨 SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨
—--------------------------
TL;DR - Daily report rugged.

We can’t believe The Nostr Report is approaching its 1-year anniversary next week! We want to take a moment to reflect, and to make you aware of some coming changes. The year has flown by in a whirlwind of protocol and app development, unexpected hurdles, multiple conferences and meetups, and amazing new friendships. We began with a simple goal—to help you keep up with what’s happening on Nostr. If there’s one thing you quickly learn about Nostr, it’s that things can move fast here. You can blink an eye and miss a major announcement or development in your feed, and we’re here to help make sure you catch it.

Our team believes that #Nostr , #Bitcoin , and #FreedomTech in general, are crucial tools for humanity in the world today. Our passion is to learn about them, use them, and help inform you about them, and we believe that passion shows through the countless hours that each of our team members pours into The Nostr Report every single day bringing you daily news, articles and newsletters, interviews, cartoons and memes, and the Lightning Round each week on #PlebchainRadio.

A week ago, we posted a survey asking for your feedback, and we appreciate the nearly 40 responses we received. We are grateful and humbled by the overall positivity toward our efforts, and we are incredibly thankful for the sincere criticisms and suggestions for improvement. We also appreciate the ongoing feedback we receive each week from our readers. Your honesty and candor will help us ensure that The Nostr Report can serve you even better moving into the future.

One of the most obvious and immediate changes you’ll notice is that we are moving away from publishing a single comprehensive daily report. As the ecosystem and variety of Nostr client apps continues to broaden, it is difficult to ensure a consistent user experience when reading our daily report. Also, as we look to broaden our topics of interest, a single daily report continues getting longer (much like this announcement, haha) which we recognize makes reading it a challenge in some clients.

Instead of a single daily report, look to our Nostr feed and our Telegram channel ( https://nostr.report/premium ) for ongoing news and updates throughout the week, and a weekly recap of important news. The #NostrTechWeekly newsletter will continue bringing you the latest tech updates and conversations. The #MarceFiles interviews, #Rita cartoons, and our #LightningRound on Plebchain Radio will also continue. And memes. Gotta have the memes.

The Nostr Report is just getting started. As we look ahead to our next year, we are excited to continue creating great ways to keep you updated and aware of the amazing things and people on Nostr, as well as exploring how we can do our part to spread the good word about Nostr and bring in new users. Stay tuned for more to come, and as we close in on our 1-year anniversary, be on the lookout for some year end updates and highlights.

As always, stay classy, Nostr.
