You can now follow others on Nosta profiles. Just press that "Follow" button. Or press "Following" if you don't want to follow them anymore. Up to you. Heads up, this is new functionality with lots of new background logic. It may not work properly. But more testing is going to happen the next few days and it will solidify (fingers crossed). There are some follow-up features planned. Like showing which people you and the person whose profile you're looking at have in common. But first, time to test and solidify. Your patience during this time is appreciated. Stay magical.

Nosta now has tracking (GDPR compliant, no fingerprinting, no cookie banners), and the dashboard is public if you're curious. Reason is to get a rough sense for how it's being used (and if anyone even uses it) to improve the experience.

A nasty bug that sent you to a broken page when trying to access your profile should be fixed now. Reach out if you still encounter it.

The site should load much snappier now due to an improvement on how image assets are being loaded. Let us know if you come across any issues.

The website should be a bit snappier now and manage relays slightly more intelligently (which still is not very intelligent, but progress is progress).

Nosta profiles now show Pinstr boards (

). Example profile:

Nosta

Nostr profiles. Nice and easy.

Boards are only rendered from the nos.lol relay, because that's the only one Pinstr currently checks, and Nosta links out to the site for board details. No dead links this way. That will be updated when Pinstr updates relay handling (already discussed it). Nosta now renders about 20 different kinds. People can be active in so many different ways, so hopefully everyone can have a unique and personal profile that reflects their interests.
