Bluesky = “Twitter, but portable” Mastodon = “Email-style Twitter (many servers)” Nostr = “RSS meets Bitcoin-style censorship resistance” Matrix = “Decentralized Discord/Slack”

Here an article that explains the vision of nostr https://primal.net/jack/1681236782798

Currently nostr world seems to be somekind of silly place of bitcoin nerds. Hopefully there will be more different type of crowd soon, this bitcoin crap has already starting to piss me off.

That’s because you’re special!

Yeah, I liked IRCvery much, but it’s server based. Nostr is not and should be resistant to censoring attempts. In theory that is :)

Trying to log in to forum with Onion tor browser on iOS dosen’t work. When trying to log in it says “Authorization code mismatch”. On desktop computer with Brave tor login works fine.

By deafult, when loggin into Primal web app there is only blue button named "New Note". To get to the button to write a new Read there are a couple of ways for this 1. Via the Reads tab When you're on the Reads tab (primal.net/reads) in the web app, there should be a "New Article" or pencil/compose button that appears contextually — similar to how the "New Note" button appears on the home feed. Navigating to the Reads tab first puts you in the long-form context. 2. Via your profile page Go to your own profile and look for an "Articles" tab. From there you should see a button to create a new article alongside any you've previously published. 3. Bookmark the URL The most reliable workaround for a free user is simply to bookmark primal.net/myarticles in your browser — that takes you straight to the article editor every time, making it just as quick as a button click.

But Primal dosen't support group chat function. Doing fast search, it seems that Nostrord client is specifically made for nostr group chats. Probably there are some others too, like Chachi, Flotilla, 0xChat. Chachi — most user-friendly for beginners Chachi is a web-based NIP-29 group chat client with a clean, Telegram-like interface. It's widely considered the most accessible entry point for Nostr group chats. Just open it in a browser, no install needed. Flotilla — best for Discord-style communities Flotilla is modeled after Discord — groups function like Discord servers or Slack workspaces, where users join an entire group of chat rooms at once, rather than joining individual chat rooms one by one. No Bullshit Bitcoin It describes itself as "the decentralized Discord alternative built on the Nostr protocol." Flotilla Great if you want structured communities with multiple rooms. 0xChat — best for mobile/privacy-focused users 0xChat is a secured chatting app built on Nostr that prioritizes privacy, with features like private key login, encrypted private chats, and public channels. It is a free, open-source, non-profit project that does not collect any user data. Google Play Available on Android and iOS — good for people who want a mobile-first chat experience similar to Signal or Telegram. Nostrord — newest, most cross-platform Nostrord is built with Kotlin Multiplatform, meaning it runs as native apps on Android, iOS, desktop, and in the browser via WebAssembly — with over 90% shared code across all platforms. Nostrord Very new (launched April 2026), so less battle-tested but promising.
