List of Businesses on Nostr:

I started this list so I could keep track but since I'm not sure if such a list like this exists anywhere else, I thought others would benefit from it too.

Many of these businesses are actively using #Nostr as a marketplace through which to sell their goods or services.

This is not exhaustive so feel free to add businesses I missed to the comments.

Here's to the early adopters, to seeing these businesses supported, and to seeing the #bitcoin circular economy grow:

And shout out to Untapped Growth. Not sure if his handle males sense on this list but you should follow him anyway. nprofile1qqs2d0qm73kmvjynznwdknv9uxvcd6fe9f4ctu5ye88egdmtxpvr8dcpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgjwaehxw309ac82unsd3jhqct89ejhxqg5waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t0h6h2ec

It is a common tendency among artists and designers to not handle compliments well. There are many reasons for this, but I think it is most often because we see all the faults in a given piece and are therefore unable to accept that others see something worthy of praise. We are quick to respond to a compliment with reasons why it is actually not as good as the person thinks or by pointing out how the piece falls short of our own artistic standards.

Sometimes we simply mistake downplaying our work as being humble. But this is really a false humility. If I am good at what I do—as compliments from other people can bear witness to—denying it is tantamount to lying.

What's more, we often think of pride as boastfulness, but its less obvious form is self-denigration—or even self-pity. The ironic thing about denying my own skill as an artist, or the effective execution of particular work, is that it forces the conversation down an channel of prideful egotism. The person is complimenting me, the artist, yes, but they are likely doing so because something about my work moved them. To then give them reasons why they actually shouldn't be moved makes the whole thing about me in the worst way.

What I have had to learn over the years is that when someone compliments my work, I should ask them what they like about it or how it spoke to them. Most often I give them the social grace of simply saying "thank you."

A feature that I've been complaining about NOSTR not having exists. it's probably existed for a while.

Absolutely REVOLUTIONARY night for my NOSTR future

I love the Vibe here and make a point to post and scroll the Primal Trending 24hr feed every day.

I would LOVE to spend more time here, but I've never been a fan of the 'Latest' algorithm.

Until there's more choice in algorithm, it's hard to see me consistently spending my 'scrolling time' here.
