Are there any established Nostr clients for memes? I'm not sure about any.

Search for the #meme in any of those clients and you immediately have it 😃
(plus everything else that comes included, like zapping, bookmarks, muting, reporting, etc.)

In future, memestr will have its own hosted relays with a unique algorithm for providing personalised feed based on data accumulated and processed from the relays but as of now, Memestr is a community for members who like seeing all their memes/news/random stuff at one place without having to go through a lot of text statuses.

Should we be putting that in readme?

Memestr is a community for members who like seeing all their memes/news/random stuff at one place without having to go through a lot of text statuses.

That summary seems great.
I'd suggest keeping readme fairly short and to the point. People should understand what the project is about from a few sentences.

You can link to a more detailed, or a more technical document (for longer explanations) for anyone curious.

**`🛡️ Open Source and Censorship Resistance`**: Memestr's commitment to being
open
source
and censorship-resistant is a key differentiator. It embraces freedom of
expression and ensures that content is not restricted or removed arbitrarily.
This sets Memestr apart as a platform that values user autonomy and a diverse
range of humor, even if it's edgy or unconventional.

`💸 Zap the Laughter`: Memestr introduces a novel concept with "Zapping." Users
can
send sats (online currency) to creators whose content they appreciate the most.
This adds a layer of engagement and rewards to the platform, encouraging content
creators and making the community more interactive.

`👥 Community-Driven Development`: Being open source means that Memestr actively
involves its community in shaping the platform's features and improvements. This
collaborative approach fosters a sense of ownership and belonging among users,
making Memestr more than just a website but a shared project.

`🤠 User-Friendly Features:` Memestr offers user-friendly features for content
creation, interaction, and account management. These features make it easy for
users to upload their content, comment, like, and share posts, and seamlessly
log in and out of their accounts.

`Diverse Content Library`: Memestr aims to provide a vast and well-organized
library of memes and trending content, ensuring that users can easily discover
the funniest and most relevant material. The commitment to staying up-to-date
with internet trends keeps the content fresh and engaging.

`🌟Unique Identity`: Memestr is forging its unique identity in the online humor
community, driven by its values of openness, censorship resistance, and user
engagement. This unique identity can attract users who appreciate these
principles and want to be part of a more community-driven and transparent
platform.

`🌐 Inter-app Operatability:`
Memestr is built on Nostr, a Nostr client, allowing it to fetch details
available on other Nostr clients through the use of pub keys. This means you can
explore a complete ecosystem, seamlessly accessing content from different
platforms all in one place.

## why should people use it?

On Memestr, you can not only see and engage with funny memes and trending
content but you can as well upload Posts yourself.
You can Like, Comment, Share, Zap and maintain a profile
on [Memestr](https://memestr.app/)

👩‍💻 **`Open Source:`**
But here's the best part – Memestr is open source! We believe in the power of
collaboration and giving back to the community. That's why Memestr's source code
is freely available for anyone to access, modify, and contribute to. Join us in
shaping the future of online humor!

🛡️ `Censorship Resistance`:
At Memestr, we stand for freedom of expression. We understand the importance of
an open platform where no one dictates what's funny or not. Memestr is designed
to be censorship-resistant, ensuring that your content can always find a home
here, no matter how edgy or unconventional it may be.

💸 `Zap the Laughter`:
Here's something that makes Memestr even more exciting – you can Zap the notes
you like! Zapping is our unique way of sending sats (online currency) to someone
whose content tickled your funny bone. Show your appreciation for the funniest
posts with a simple Zap!
