1. What do you think nostriches? 🫵🏻

2. Here is the result of his experiment 👇🏻
GM,
I took two months off as an experiment to see how it would feel. Nostr is the only thing on my phone that consistently generates new content so I found my screen pretty boring, which had it's benefits... I definitely got more writing done.
At one point, maybe two weeks ago, I noticed that nobody around me was talking about nostr. I began to wonder if it has any future or if any notable adoption would happen. Maybe nostr was a flash in the pan... I sat with that for about a week.
Maybe it's true, but I also couldn't stop thinking about it and I missed being here. A couple of days ago my two months was almost up and I COULDN'T WAIT to hop back on, but I did because I committed to it.
Many pent up notes to follow 🤙
3. Indeed, we need more non-bitcoin content on Nostr 👇🏻
I came here thinking I had no particular business being on Nostr. The more I understand what you’ve built, the less I understand why so many of you use it primarily as a Bitcoin discussion forum. I suspect this place has considerably more to offer than its locals have yet had occasion to discover.
4. Here is the very first feeling of a nostr beginner 😉
Okay, I’m curious…
How did everyone here discover Nostr?
I literally just arrived and it already feels like I walked into a completely different corner of the internet 😂
5. They need our prayers! 🙏🏻
Nostr fam, please send prayers for safety for my oldest and peace for my family. She left this morning and flew out of state without telling us and left her phone and reset the laptop she had been using. We have not heard from her yet and just want her to be safe and bring her back to us. God bless. 🙏
6. A nostrich shares his Nostr experience concisely 👇🏻
What is up with NOSTR lately? I'm not getting all the notes I'm supposed to be seeing, including some of my own replies, and it's not isolated to one client (appears to be both Damus and Primal; Primal is usually my go-to to find if something is off in Damus). But lately I'm getting most complete results on Yaki and Jumble.
I don't expect a helpful response, as these things are highly individual, and I suspect the answer is just "something is up with your relays," which won't help since as far as I can tell they're the same across clients and haven't changed in a while. I blame Divine though...I think using it did something.
7. This forum would be so useful for especially new Nostr relay maintainers 🔥
Do you run a relay? Share your experience.
Running a relay is still a bit of a black art: choosing the software, sizing the box, handling spam, deciding on policies, keeping costs sane, and dealing with the surprises that only show up once real traffic hits.
I opened a room to collect this knowledge in one place, so that new relay runners don't have to rediscover everything on their own:
https://nostr-proto.org/room/relays
If you operate a relay, big or small, please drop in and tell us what worked, what didn't, and what you wish you had known at the start. Setup guides, war stories, tooling tips, cost breakdowns, anything is welcome.
Feel free to mention your preferred relay wizard to catch their attention.

8. This is 💯% true 🤟🏻
I talked with my Uber driver about AI while on the way to the airport in Minneapolis. He thought AI was going to kill us all. I told him that I thought otherwise. I said:
The thing to fear the most is a handful of companies and governments controlling the most capable intelligence on Earth. We've seen what they do with power.
Open source and open weight models are how we stay free from oppression. It's how we empower all of us.
9. Actually, what is the reason? 🤔
Why are you on nostr?
#nostr #asknostr
10. That’s really a nice bunch of tools 🫶🏻
My nostr projects over the years
WoT Relay - clean public relays
Haven - best personal relay

Hope you enjoy frens, love y'all 😘
11. This is the humanity on Nostr 🫶🏻
If you have a chance to make someone's day better, take it.
Kindness costs little, but can mean everything.
