Overview

nos is a compact command-line program built to interact with the Nostr decentralized social protocol. It provides a polished terminal interface that makes it straightforward to publish posts, read activity streams, and participate in the network without leaving the shell. The tool emphasizes speed and minimal resource usage while supporting common desktop environments.

Core capabilities

  • Read and browse Nostr feeds directly from the terminal, keeping you up to date.
  • Create and send posts to Nostr relays for immediate distribution across the network.
  • Interact with other users and events (replies, reactions, and follows) using keyboard-driven commands.

Platform compatibility

  • Linux
  • macOS
  • Windows

nos is designed to run smoothly across these systems, offering a consistent command-line experience regardless of platform.

Why choose it

The application combines an attractive terminal UI with straightforward controls, making it accessible to newcomers and comfortable for advanced users. Its lightweight architecture delivers quick responsiveness, which is especially useful when working over slow connections or on modest hardware. By operating through Nostr relays, nos lets you communicate in a decentralized way while remaining in a familiar terminal workflow.

Suggested alternative

If you prefer a different client, consider SHAREit (free), which some users find suitable as an alternative for managing Nostr content and transfers.
