+chorus - Grow and give back to the communities that matter to you

+chorus is a simple space for communities to gather, share, and support each other. It is built on the decentralized Nostr protocol.

Key Features

  • Browse & Join Groups: Discover and participate in public communities that match your interests
  • Post Freely: Share notes and images with your groups via the Nostr protocol
  • Built-in Payments to Give & Get Support: Contribute to the communities you care about or receive support for your work using simple, privacy-respecting payments powered by Cashu
