Nostr seems to be where all the kids who grew up in the 80s and 90s, and all the kids who wish they could have grown up in the 80s and 90s, hang out. I love it. 😂💜
I think people that grew up to see the early days of the internet remember how much fun it was and find something similar in the new-ness and free-ness and novelty of nostr. Plus we had the patience to wait for dial up and deal with hacking things together so we don’t mind shuffling through the mess here. That’s my theory at least 😂
For written content, nostr clients/apps handle it well natively, especially if you use one of the longform article apps such as Habla.news or Yakihonne. I’ve used Habla more, but Yakihonne recently put out an update that I’ve seen some good reviews about. These articles are published to relays and many of the other nostr apps automatically show them to your followers. They are also web based, so you have nice web links to share on other platforms.
For photo, nostr.build and Satellite.earth offer great hosting plans and integrate well with nostr apps. Nostr.build costs a little more, but offers more features for managing your uploads. Satellite.earth is more cost-friendly, but fewer features.
For video, nostr isn’t the greatest yet but it’s getting better. You can upload video files to nostr.build or satellite, but no one has built a very good way to organize them and display them to your followers where they are viewable and searchable as a catalog. My recommendation would be to post casual social videos and short teaser/trailer videos to nostr, and use Rumble and YouTube for your catalog. Hopefully that gets better.
Nostr is also becoming a great place to share audio content. Fountain and Wavlake have fantastic apps for that.
Hope that helps.
That sentiment is shared by merely a few people. The ability to transact without a central authority being able to interfere does not necessitate anonymity.
Do you never pay with a credit/debit card anywhere? Do you never go to restaurants that ask for a name they can call when your table is ready? Seems extreme man.
Same. My dad was nearly 50 by the time I was born and died from chronic illness in his 60s. I have siblings much older than me that describe a lively, adventurous man full of life that I basically never had the opportunity to know.
Idk the rules don’t say it needs to be original so probably wouldn’t matter. At best this is a small annouance, but still… lol. It’s not just one person that does this, which is why it irks me after a while enough to post about it. It’s one thing to share a funny meme you find because you like it, but I feel it’s a whole other thing when you’re intentionally entering something you didn’t make into a contest trying to win money for it.
