I suggest we stay on here untill an app with better communities support for Nostr is developed. While waiting we don’t just wait but actively support the developement. That means the developers develop, the people with the money donate and the people with advertisement skills advertise.

My proposal is to keep using lemmy with native good communities support while also step by step we migrate fully to nostr when it is ready.

As you may have noticed in the recent days EH was down for some time. The issue was that the version of lemmy that the site is running is nkt very stable. I would suggest we switch software with something more complete backend.

If @admin@exploding-heads.com has no issues I would like to run a vote. A vote that would chanve the future route of EH if the admin agree to follow the outcome of the vote.

The things that I would like you to vote are:

  1. Would you like to keep the site running?

  2. Would you like to ise another software like lemmy but better functioning?

    I agree. Let me ask a dumbass question I already know the answer to. Are there any developers who use exploding heads that have the capability to make a reddit style nostr app? I’m sure the answer is probably no.

    I mean if I could I would do it. But I lack the knowledge for that. I’m only asking out of curiosity I don’t want to sound like ‘MAKE THIS SO I’M COMFORTABLE BITCH’’ type thing. Cause that shits annoying.

    It’s frustrating bc I WANT TO make an app like that for nostr but I don’t fucking know shay developers know and I’m impatient as fuck.

    I guess basically what I’m saying is, I feel like developers need to stop with the Twitter tunnel vision and appeal to different audiences.

      spot on. i mean, they can work on whatever tf they want, I’m just not interested in Twitter-style shit and if they are tryin to get me onboard, there’s gotta be interest in reddit/lemmy-style too.

      that said… feel a little bad as i know how to code (java and large relational db’s mostly). but i haven’t studied any of this stuff since i’ve been mostly focused on stuff that pays the bills and puts food on the table and haven’t had the energy to pick up side project/stuff like this.

      Yea, I don’t know what’s up with that. Everything is fucking twitter ever since that one year that the media at large mysteriously started pimping them for no reason.
