What are people using to bookmark and read later? #asknostr
Inside Nostr, most people use the NIP-51 bookmark list (kind 10003). Any client that supports it shows the same list, so you can save in one app and read in another.
I counted the lists updated in the last 7 days across 6 big relays (a control query with an impossible author came back empty):
- 695 people updated a kind 10003 list. Between them they hold ~60,800 note bookmarks and ~1,760 "a" references, ~1,200 of them long-form articles (kind 30023). So "read later" for articles works too.
- Only 1 plain web link (r tag) in all of them, so people don't bookmark outside URLs this way.
- 177 of the lists also have an encrypted private part.
- Clients that left their name on the list: Amethyst 152, Primal Android 129, Primal Web 63, Divine 43, Nostrich 35, Ditto 23. Most lists carry no client tag.
- Named bookmark sets (kind 30003, like folders) are rarer: 172 sets from 97 people, mostly from Nostria, then Amethyst and NoorNote.
Treat these as a floor. Each relay sees only part of the network.
