Just a suggestion on popularizing: There are a few popular people who crosspost to various sites beyond Twitter. Maybe you could find out what solution they use to cross post and write a nostr plug-in. This way nostr could quickly gain the following it deserves.
I can’t judge on the protocol specifics but if installing and getting a userid can be as easy as literally pushing one button this can pick up. Currently it looks very slick and thus promising!
I like the name. It reminds me of GNU, which is Not UNIX. So nostr is no str, or something ;-) But is compact and not a monstr either.
Naming things is very hard, as the saying goes, this name is turning out to be better than expected now that you uncovered the secret "no str" meaning :)
On the contrary I kinda see the point in the pocket and send to bridge the gap between desktop and mobile for the users that own both.
But the small brainless degradations of the UI in Firefox make me worry about its future.
For example it’s not possible to permanently add exclusions to the privacy shield. Because of it the sites are often broken.
And this is a feature that is directly user facing on the main screen!
Formerly known as "Read It Later", it's a reading list service. You save pages for later reference. There's subscriptions to unlock features.
I loved RIL but Pocket is but a shadow of what it once was.
Similar to Evernote web clips, or Instapaper. I now use OneNote instead with the webclipper plugin, mostly because it puts the clips in a place where I can also add my own notes.
I switched to Joplin. It's completely seamless once I authenticate with the service I sync with and toggle the web clipper support in the desktop app. You can even clip those pages where the site blocks the Evernote and OneNote crawler since it all happens in your browser and on the local clip server.
Best of all, it's all in Markdown. There's a beta rich text editor, but the Markdown editor has a preview and a little button bar for common stuff like lists and formatting.
