Info

Nostr (Notes and Other Stuff Transmitted by Relays) is a free and open network that nobody owns or controls.

Nostr uses relays (servers) to store and share information, and clients (apps) to let people read, write, and interact with that information.

Every account has Nostr keys. Your public key is like your username and can be shared with anyone. Your private key is like your password and must be kept safe. These keys give you ownership of your identity, rather than a company owning it for you.

Because your identity belongs to your keys, not a specific app, you can move between different Nostr clients while keeping the same profile, followers, and content. Unlike traditional social media platforms, your digital identity is not locked into a single company or controlled by a CEO.

This client uses

NIP-01 The basic protocol: signed events, filters, relay subscriptions, event validation, and relay publishing.

NIP-02 Contact lists, used for follow lists and follow-list publishing with relay hints preserved where possible.

NIP-04 Legacy encrypted direct messages between users; useful for compatibility, but can leak metadata.

NIP-05 Human-readable identifiers like [email protected] that resolve to Nostr public keys and relay hints.

NIP-07 Browser extension login and signing, so users can publish without giving the app their private key.

NIP-09 Deletion requests, used when editing your own short notes by publishing the corrected note and disowning the old one.

NIP-10 Thread and reply markers for building conversations around notes and publishing marked replies.

NIP-11 Relay information documents, used to understand relay capabilities, limits, and supported NIPs.

NIP-15 End-of-stored-events notices, used by relay queries to know when the initial batch of stored events has finished.

NIP-19 Readable Bech32 identifiers such as npub, nsec, note, nevent, and nprofile.
