Show Notes

What happens when our obsession with building the “perfect protocol” blinds us to the real problems users want solved? It's time to slay some sacred cows. In this conversation, we unpack the hype around Nostr, the pitfalls of developer-first thinking, and the lessons Bitcoiners should learn if we want adoption that truly matters. Check out the original article Nostr Unpopular Opinions by Aleks Svetski (Link: https://primal.net/svetski/Nostr-Unpopular-Opinions-p53tc9) Mentions & Resources from the Episode Book: The Cold Start Problem by Andrew Chen (Link: https://tinyurl.com/52y98f3f) (Link: https://fountain.fm/episo...

Sorry guys, last weeks boost I whined and gave you the wrong Nip, it wasnt 21, but 23... Long form content. Though now I do put out to Nostr, using a custom Kind so users can sync their feed list. So peek at https://nostrfeedz.com

So, my app NostrFeedz pulls data but does not post. But it's a feed reader, which has no reason to post. But it provides for reading and catagorizing nip-21 content. So it's not a Nostr app?
