“notes” is a far better label than “posts”. and more unique to #nostr

“Events” is also a good naming convention. For a protocol being worked on by so many different teams, it’s being constructed very thoughtfully

Notes for short form, but posts for long form.

Posting a note sounds like you are writing a note on a Post-It

I can write notes without posting them, though. "Post" is a better description of something that has been shared online.

"you should note that through nostr" it feels a bit unnatural

Post is the verb, note is the noun Stay humble, post notes

Notes capture essence, lasting treasure; posts fleeting, shallow pleasure.

Eh, I don't like "notes". Too ambiguous with actual note taking

Great idea. First Qs that come to mind How does Nostr user experience compare with Twitter? What client(s) do you use? From what I’ve seen, current user base is highly concentrated among Bitcoiners. Thoughts on implications this has for user experience and network growth? What do you think of Twitter blocking Substack links? Is Block building on/for NOSTR?

You can learn most of these answers just looking at his past notes and replies tbh
Got it. I haven’t reviewed his posts thoroughly. Anything in particular that I *should* ask?
1. How does Nostr user experience compare with Twitter? It’s both at parity and far more advanced. Zaps are far more advanced and a leapfrogging. As is logging in with a key pair. As is autopilot relay model in some clients. 2. What client(s) do you use? Primarily Damus for iOS, gossip for desktop, and a variety of web clients (snort and coracle). 3. From what I’ve seen, current user base is highly concentrated among Bitcoiners. Thoughts on implications this has for user experience and network growth? Bitcoiners tend to be pretty principled and focused on building tools to enable more self sovereignty, so I think it will turn out very well for individuals. But like Twitter, I think there are many other niches you aren’t seeing yet because you aren’t on those relays. 4. What do you think of Twitter blocking Substack links? I don’t believe Twitter should block any links. Is this true? 5. Is Block building on/for NOSTR? Yes.
Can you break out questions next time? 1 q per note.

Best way to gain adoption in global south? How does he foresee zaps being utilized in the global south that would surprise us?

welcome to nostr. regarding your third question, hope you stick around and contribute to a more diverse user base!

I believe there are many applications for nostr beyond being a "Twitter clone". Value4value (zaps) is a very interesting concept with a lot of avenues for monetizing on a peer to peer basis that may have otherwise been unscaleable. Perhaps #[3] sees it that way as well? Any thoughts or imaginative ideas where we can go from here?

What are 'those relays'? I wanna see the niche relays. Would be great to see a relay directory searchable by keywords/topics/niches.

Real time thrift shopping. Find an object in store, list it, walk around and keep listing items. Get paid what you're asking, then check out and ship it to buyer when you get home. Something like that. Or have a list of items people are requesting that they can't get where they're at or are hard to get...
Definite
I can see an online marketplace/listing type relay service. Make it a paid relay (one time, sub, or per note) and you can cut out the spam. Would be great to have a client that allows you to toggle bundled relays with a single click. For example, turn off all your normal social relays and turn on your merchant relays. (Or just make an alt account)
