I got a chance to catch up with Hodlbod, one of the original client developers on Nostr. We started by talking about how he sees his work on Nostr through the lens of Christianity (and his new podcast Thank God For Nostr which goes deeper on that). We also went deeper to discuss how much relay selection should be visible to users and how relay commoditization and competition might work in the future. Finally we did a deep brainstorm around relays and how they could fit into a Subreddit-like/Zine-like thing on Nostr.1:05 Thank God For Nostr5:50 Ira Glass - on creative work9:51 Christianity and Nostr30:30 Relay selection and visibility39:49 Commoditization of relays51:58 Gossip model1:08:53 Subreddit-like things/Zines on Nostr This is a public episode.
