hi,
i tried nostr last year when i heard of it, and just like blockchain nft and ai i go excited. i always get excited about tech. i left because ux what pretty tough for a non-tech like me. fast forward a year and i’m back, with a colder head and a better will to understand nostr. first thing i noticed is it’s getting better uxwise, i have way less bugs and the products (sorry, clients) got better. i found the same active core community that was here last year and that is still here, pushing nostr further a little bit everyday. i also get a feeling there is more people and activity than before. anyway this time i’m likely to stay and to to slot myself in this beautiful community and be part of this beautiful movement.
i’m an introvert and never enjoyed social medias, please don’t think i’m a freak if i don’t post so often. i’d much rather read content from better content creators and focus on building stuff on the side, which i’m conveniently better at. i first did ux design for a living and went into different aspects of startup management. i’m a chaotic creator with an optimistic entrepreneurial mind. when i don’t work, i like videogames basketball and arts in general. that’s it for me. oh and i like friends, so come and say hi!
i have five ongoing nostr projects, here’s what they are, what i’m looking for, and how you can get involved and help. did i tell you i’m not great at chit-chat? i’m actually pretty bad at it, but i’m actually a nice guy to talk to, i just like talking about projects.
1/
what is nostr and why it matters is a document to explain the purpose of nostr, mainly by vulgarizing the protocole, and oppose web2 to web3 with pros and cons. i haven’t even started ideating on the subject by the idea is that if people understand the value of nostr, then they'll get onboard.

use nostr is a document to help newcomers who aren’t tech-savy (sometimes when i scroll my feed i feel like a minority but in my hometown is filled with muggles) get into the ecosystem. this guide is a very pragmatical step by step creation guide. it doesn’t show all the options available but it provides the most ux friendly approach to nostr. for the masses, plug n play.
i need help with #factchecking #copywriting #ideas # feedback
to make sure people have an easy time getting into the ecosystem, this document has to be crystal clear, and it’s pretty fuzzy in my head still. i need help finetuning the doc with savy people.++ ask for a link if you want to see where it’s at rn.++

nostr city, a way more ambitious project as i wrote down a script to a 1 minute video. it’s punchy it’s witty and it actually explains what nostr is in a few words and stagings using metafors. i actually have shitty soryboard i want to collaborate on.
i want to collaborate with people who do #illustration #graphicdesign #motiondesign #editing #voiceover #copywriting #beatmaker #musician #soundtrack.
since it’s a real project with a real ambition (i want to make it happen and have expectations on the final render), we’ll have to come up with an association of some sort to all get the deserved amount of bread.

a documentation website with the three projects from above. the benefit of making a website is no one wants a pdf, and it would make updating the documentation as nostr evolves much easier. also could add small features as we go (better use nostr, build on nostr, etc). rather small dev project, i can even do the frontend with webflow.
i need help with #dev #cms #ideas
5/
pretentious claim but the ambition is to create sort of an operating system, with your apps and all the options each of them have to offer, much like widgets. there’s a store to add more apps. relay management, community index (map/listing/meetups). a whole saas. it’s a raw idea but with the right tech team we could do magic.
i want to collaborate with people who do #tech #tech #tech #product #ideas
there are different apps that tackle some aspects of some of those features, but i have a feeling there is a need for these macro platforms to easily browse nostr and web3. it’s very b2c oriented and i feel like the 1.6M users today could quickly grow bigger if such a plug and play solution existed for the mass. tough technical project, we’ll have to come up with an association of some sort to all get the deserved amount of bread as well.
so yeah, i always keep my plate full that’s what i like. happy to be back on nostr and glad i took the advice of gugafigueiredo@primal.net and wrote my formal introduction post!
please please please dm me if you have some time to spare for the above projects, even proof-reading as you peak into my drafts for a minute a day. also just with random ideas that could help make the projects better.
since joining nostr i’ve felt nothing but confused by how hard it is to do web3 in 24, and then i had positive, helpful and friendly answers from most of the people i reached out to. then i realized it was the perfect spot for me, i could do what i do best and make web3 more accessible, to all my questions i’ll have tailored answers from field experts. who needs chatgpt or stackoverflow when you can have nostr. also some people here are funny here!
thank you for reading this far, here's a local musical gem w3.do/ROhMdu5_
ok bye.
