Nost(rasi)a

Alrighty, I registered Nosta for the Nostrasia hackathon. TBH, I don't have a huge amount of time, but it will help me slowly pick away at my backlog in GitHub and improve things.

The idea of Nosta is pretty straightforward. You create your own profile, and look at other people's profiles. It gets complicated though because we now have so many different things people can do on Nostr, and everyone has their own unique combo of stuff.

Another aspect is that during my summer vaca, 3 new NIPs were added. And the existing ones also keep evolving as the ecosystem marinades in them and figures out their natural fit. A moving target.

I still have to figure out which area of the site to focus on during the hackathon. Highest priority is probably revising the profile creation flow, polishing and testing every detail. Most of the recent work was on supporting more NIPs on profiles. But profile creation is really the primary use case and entry point, and there is definitely lots of room for improvement.

Should be fun. Let's do it.
