Here's a selection of things built on the protocol: https://nostrapps.com https://nostrapps.com
- danabramov 1y agoNostr is not different from atproto in that sense because atproto also supports arbitrary applications (the article uses Leaflet and Tangled as examples). There's a good comparison of atproto vs Nostr: https://shreyanjain.net/2024/07/05/nostr-and-atproto.html https://shreyanjain.net/2024/07/05/nostr-and-atproto.html
- kevinak 1y agoFair enough. But it is a more complicated protocol that, I feel, makes it a lot harder to diversify and build different applications on.
- brody_hamer 1y agoI really like the approach of nostr, but when I tried to use it, each client I tried would start me off following ecoin pump and dump influencers. It was really off putting. I would’ve preferred starting off in an empty room, an experience more like using signal.
- kevinak 1y agoI've heard this multiple times but I don't know what clients do that? Most allow you to click something akin to the Following tab, just like Twitter, BlueSky, or what not. Are you asking for an application that does not have other kinds of feeds?
