If you have an RSS feed from your own website, like a Ghost blog, and would like to cross publish to Nostr, we have a parser on Decent Newsroom, that creates long-form notes from the RSS feed.
If you're interested, let me know, and I'll enable the feature for your npub.

2026-06-22 18:25:49 GMT

I've been trying to optimize load times, and I've possibly made some progress, but I have also been seeing a lot of errors on DN, so if your experience has been less than stellar lately, I'm aware.
I've been trying to get the world to notice the articles, and after publishing the sitemap and some other SEO tweaks, have now been drowning in crawlers.
So, yeah. 🫩

Essayist relay is live.
Members can now broadcast articles to it, and read.
Members, you can add the relay to your list: wss://essayist.decentnewsroom.com
On Decent Newsroom, members can use the 'Broadcast to Essayist' shortcut on article pages, to add any article to the curation.
Writers can choose the option to only publish to Essayist in the article editor, to create a members-only preview of their work.
There's also a dedicated homepage, where members can browse the collection: https://decentnewsroom.com/essayist/home
First time you're hearing about this? Check out the intro here: https://decentnewsroom.com/essayist

Thanks for reporting.
I updated the editor recently. Including a fix for the crash.
Can you try again, and let me know if it's helped at all?
I'm a bit partial to serif, so it's a personal bias of mine grating on your nerves. I'll look into it. Maybe I can make it configurable in the editor, so you could switch to sans and adjust font size.

2026-05-28 09:01:33 GMT

Can you give me any more info?
When I try my own drafts, I can see them in my profile page and in the editor, so I can't tell from that what goes wrong for you.

The relay goes live next month. To get read/write access you need to become a member. You can sign up at https://decentnewsroom.com/essayist
It will require AUTH and only accept long-form, but it will otherwise be a regular relay you can publish to from any client.
Within Decent Newsroom, I do intend to offer some shortcuts, like broadcast existing to Essayist, or publish a preview to Essayist members only.

You are all on our radar as authors. You're invited to join Essayist. It's intended for you and your audiences, as a way to build a community and a slice of nostr dedicated to thoughtful writing, commentary and opinion.

The members are free to publish anything, there is no quality gate or a global editorial team. The membership requirement is designed to reward honest actors. The intent is to build an engaged community that will be willing and able to spot fake news, point that out in the comments (or reports), and debate its merits. And members have control of their own dials, to mute or follow contributions based on their own judgement.
Since this is a platform and an opt-in service, the relay reserves the right to remove content for legal reasons. This does not in any way affect the writers' ability to remain censorship resistant on the protocol level.

2026-05-19 10:29:11 GMT

Members get access to a personalized front page dedicated to long-form writing.

All articles are nostr longform. There are more articles than are shown on the front page within each category.

2026-03-26 20:24:26 GMT

I am totally doing this for me, but now you get to have it, too.
Whenever you upload an image on Decent Newsroom, it will show up in the Media Manager so you can come back for it later and reuse it elsewhere.
Or you can upload images in advance, and then grab them directly from the article editor to include them in your latest piece.

Had a rash of 502 errors on article pages recently.
That was... a mess. The issue has been fixed and everything should be loading normally again, if not better than before. The bug hunt was serpentine and resulted in multiple loading optimizations that otherwise might not be there.

Hi.

📰 The Inflation of News: Why Reporting Alone Is No Longer Enough
News used to be valuable. Knowing what happened, where, and when was essential. But today, that information is everywhere—instant, free, and often flooded with noise.
The value of raw reporting has dropped to zero—or worse, gone negative. Why? Because fake news doesn’t just disappear. It demands time, effort, and resources to verify or debunk. The cost of filtering truth from falsehood is now higher than the cost of producing misinformation.
The future of journalism isn’t just about reporting; it’s about curation, verification, and meaningful storytelling. That’s what we’re building with Decent Newsroom—a space for curated, high-value journalism that cuts through the noise.
