I still don't understand it. I mentioned it in another post, but I felt like I was command-line LARPing in Neuromancer.
Maybe I am approaching it the wrong way? What is the easiest way for a new person to engage with it? What even is it?

Caveat. I have about one day's experience with nostr. I am no expert. It is a framework upon which clients can be built. You can "log in" to any with your own keys, create many profiles with new keys, or don't "log in" at all. To date, I have found clients that mimic Twitter and reddit, and some clients include a lightning wallet with your keys. It's pretty primitive right now, but Jack Dorsey's development donation has created excitement. Decentralized commerce through lightning seems inevitable down the road.

nostr.rocks for android. People also talk about Damus for its, but I'm not an apple guy

Ahh I see we are still early. I still have no idea what any of this stuff means. I hope it becomes a lot easier to engage with from UX side if they hope to get broad appeal, otherwise it feels just like Tildeverse / Mastadon.

I agree. It's very early. Why I'm hopeful is because nostr is really just a decentralized framework upon which anything can be built.
