Nostr Archives

I've had this idea for a while to start a Nostr-native cooperative to do things like run a reliable relay, host a multi-sig signer, and dogfood Nostr tools for organizing. Also it seems to me like a cool way to find and meet other lefty Nostr users. I'm a member of the https://social.coop cooperative Mastodon server and I'm imagining something similar. Is anyone else interested in starting or joining something like this?

Yes possibly, but what is involved?

I am really hoping to find some collaborators who would be excited to help build, figure out the processes, and share the stewardship and sysadmin work. But there is room for more consumer roles too who pay some money, get to use the services and vote on major things.

Great initiative! Looking for similar projects. Can we discuss more?

Definitely something I'd consider (joining at least, hosting services without verifing users in my home state of NY is likely going to come with a 10k per user fine in a bit)

I'm new to nostr (created key last year but now actively using it that is), I run the relay wss://relay.dontyou.click and plan on doing more. So happy to hear what this entails.

Sounds like a great idea! I am also a member of the social.coop and I am pretty sure people there would be happy to share their experiences. Count me in at least for "business" analysis! ;)

Ah OK, yes unfortunately since I retired I've packed a lot onto my plate so my two servers, blocking, YT videos, disaster management volunteer work, etc is just swamping me right now. I'd certainly keep an eye on it and see where I can help maybe on promoting it etc.
