Awesome, I've heard great things about events on orange pill app and now I can build my own calendar view :) I notice an issue with the events structure though. Its not mentioned in the NIP (for some reason) but commonly there are multiple "g" tags. one for each level of the geohash. that way its possible to lookup events by a wider area For example a geohash of "dntp5s" would be 6 tags: - ["g", "d"] - ["g", "dn"] - ["g", "dnt"] - etc... Its an annoying side effect of how relays index tags and events and I'm not sure why its not mentioned in the NIP

See my NIP-G0 proposal on github, meant to address this for events and news and geo-centric event kinds.

I'm not sure how well this will work but I just pushed "OPA Release - map on /events" to nostrcal. This release is geared to let you view our /events page displayed over a physical map. It's an early push to get it out to celebrate @Club Orange awesome move bringing their catalog of Bitcoin Meetups to nostr. Expect issues with improvements coming over the next few days!

Bold move. Do you worry about your moat? Either way, thanks for doing this.
