It’s sad to me that bitcoin has become political or associated with the cringe “crypto bro” scammers. A *lot* of are against bitcoin now because it is perceived as a tool used by the right or tech bros.
Lots of people are going to suffer if they make bitcoin a political issue. It’s the one lifeboat we got. Hopefully nostr can help change that perception.

Alternatively we can have a “merged list” view that takes any number of lists as input into a single column. Will do both, why not. #note16wz…w4z6

2024-09-13 19:53:53

trying notedeck today with 4 columns of timelines from 4 different people.
One immediate thing that stands out is that there is a lot of overlap between who follows who, so the same note appears at the top of each timeline when it comes in.
It would make sense to have a “unique” view mode that only shows notes at most once across all columns 🤔

on primal you only read from a single relay, theirs. when you configure a relay its only for which relays you write to I believe.
on damus the relay list are both the relays you read from and write to.
some clients even go further and allow you to configure relays you write to and read from separately.

Opened damus X account to post about notedeck and the first thing it popped in the algo feed was a video of kids playing with a gun and accidentally shooting their cousin in the head and then shooting themself. Now I feel ill. Fuck that app and their algo.

2024-09-09 16:49:38

If you are seeing lots of replyguy spam make sure you aren’t casting a massive net and adding a bunch of public relays with no rate limiting to your relay list. Keep a smaller list of relays that you trust. If it’s a public relay, ask the operator what kinds of spam protections are enabled.
Think “know your farmer” aka “know your relay operator“.
I’ve seen so many accounts with like 30 public relays. You’re just asking to get spammed 😅
Maybe one day you can do this and clients spam protections will handle everything, but we’re not there yet.

2024-09-09 15:55:24

I see people claiming that a single solution solved all spam issues, but in reality each solution has different tradeoffs. Web of Trust has lots of collateral damage. You filter out legitimate posts from people completely outside your circles. I would hate to lose that.
The best anti spam will likely be a combination of anti spam algos and WoT, allowing people outside your circles if the message doesn’t trigger your spam algo.
Lightning is effective as well, but not everyone uses that.

Building open source code is like building a perfectly preserved structure that exists forever in time without degredation or decay.
Our DNA/RNA is kind of the same. Once the initial hard work of constructing the code is done, and as long as the information is copied and persists through time, we can construct new versions of ourselves over and over.
Software is "alive" in a similar sense. The main downside is that it is not self-replicating or self-constructing.
Software lines can die out once the system evolves and the APIs become incompatible, so open source code must be contually evolve so that it works in the surrounding systems (OS, hardware), but that is probably the same with any subsystem within ourselves as well.
I like imagining my software as some alien obelisk that stands alone in the universe, waiting to be discovered millions of years in the future by some curious ancient-earth archaeologist.
Maybe code that renders json blobs to reverse-chronological feeds will be as quaint to future intelligences as hunter-gatherer cave paintings. More likely I have just been reading too many hard scifi space operas.

HLS video streams are made up of different encodings of the same video, some high quality and some very low quality. The encodings are also chopped up into segments so that the video can switch from high quality to low depending on the bandwidth conditions.
Here’s the lowest quality stream from my previous video upload:
https://cdn.jb55.com/hls/notedeck-large-threads/stream_3/playlist.m3u8
Almost all social media sites use this format, because it makes videos just work without loading spinners.
Damus can make these on uploads, we just need a place to host them, as they are not a standard single-file upload. Will work on this!

he's not right. if FBI shuts down Damus that will mean nothing. They will have to shut down every other iOS client and forks of Damus to disrupt iOS nostr users. Even if iOS becomes completely locked down you can still use PWAs and Damus android. Damus doesn't require any special infrastructure except relays.

Counting follows is counting the number of contact lists you are on. Contact lists are large so relays will only allow you to pull so many at a time. To know how many people follow you is knowing every up to date contact list on every relay. Clients can’t really pull all of this information down, so depending which relays you are counting from you will get different numbers, but it will always be inaccurate. Follow counts are a centralized concept.

the way to count follows on-protocol is to fetch contact lists, these are huge though, so downloading 800 of them is quite expensive.
damus is a pure protocol client and doesn't rely on special servers that count things like primal does.
follow counts isn't that useful though, since anyone can spam contact lists to raise follow counts
