Same about relays btw, I added relays on coracle and didn't see them in other clients like they didn't save in my profile meta info at all. Then one client (presumably) removed or reset my relays and I only had like 3? Imagine installing a buggy client that does that and suddenly everything is affected and your posts no longer have the same reachability for this reason that's quite hard to notice.

I had issues with snort and coracle regarding post loading. Infinite loading and all that. I'm starting to doubt that "simplicity at the center and complexity at the edges" is that good of a paradigm... all clients lack something very fundamental like showing and making posts reliably, following people and such, but they're very eager to implement non-essential features such as zapping or badges. Looks like debugging the core features is quite hard if they're in such a poor state.

And when I make a post it doesn't appear in my feed. And when someone replies or removes a message while I'm typing it, the whole page reloads and I lose whatever I typed. Fantastic UX.

2023-08-31 12:34:05

The biggest problem in nostr is... following people apparently. I've seen too many clients where this basic feature is either missing or unavailable because of adblock hiding it for some reason or it's buried so deep I can't find it. On primal it's the former I think: https://i.imgur.com/QjIprfT.png
Non-working zap button, a menu... https://i.imgur.com/kDxKGqu.png
Add user feed? Is that following? Nope, it's something else completely. Ah, there it is: https://i.imgur.com/SlkhJij.png
Very convenient, just open any post and you can find the follow button if you're lucky. No wonder engagement is so bad on nostr if you can't even follow people in one click.

2023-08-25 14:34:46

Great DoS potential! Since pushing an event doesn't mean you're able to sign, just pick whatever events of other people and push them to this relay, get a bunch of such messages that *those* people receive, not you, lmao! https://m.primal.net/HJnx.png

I suppose Ark only makes sense if literally hundreds of millions users send txs all the time. Then it justifies spamming UTXO updates in *every* block. Otherwise this on-chain footprint is ridiculous. LN defeats it easily while being faster and less chain-polluting. Also, I don't think Ark would be more effective in case of mass exodus (same as multiple LN channels dying at the same time).
The difference, if I understand it right, is that ASP can simply rob the user if they don't refresh their VTXO without additional on-chain txs and in LN the other peer has to publish a tx (or wait). It's also said in another explanation ( https://github.com/fiksn/awesome-ark/blob/master/explained.md#tradeoff ) that there would be no more than 256 ASPs in total due to on-chain limitations and their capitalization requirements are also pretty high ( https://gist.github.com/RubenSomsen/a394beb1dea9e47e981216768e007454#payment-pool-comparison ), I wonder if those requirements might exceed the total 21M limit. Because the total liquidity is the volume speed (BTC/second) multiplied by the lock time (1 month), so if all BTC are locked in one ASP it'd be limited by ≈8 BTC/sec throughput. Which is already unrealistic if you count the lost coins and those in cold storage.
And who's gonna pay the on-chain fees? How to calculate them? What happens if ASP's UTXO is evicted from mempool or significantly delayed? Or reorganized? Overall, I'm absolutely not sold on this idea, it's kinda fresh and interesting but I don't see how it's practical today. And if it only works for many more users then it doesn't scale well with the capital required.
Or maybe I just don't understand it well enough.

Will be priced out even faster than inscriptions. What we need is to optimize UTXO memory caching so that old UTXOs are swapped to disk or unloaded automatically.

Well yes, any relay can do that for any reason. But there might be game-oriented relays that don't care, or maybe they filter normal events and only let the custom gaming events through.

But what's even worse is that they had one penalty tx: https://amboss.space/edge/730479x1934x1 3M sats just found a new home, whoosh!
Poor node, but a good lesson for everyone: don't backup your channel database, make a static backup instead. If you lose your state you _have_ to force close _all_ channels (or, to be precise, ask your peers to do so), there's no other way. It's cheaper than losing everything to penalties.

You can create a different key for that to not spam the feed. When hierarchical deterministic keys go mainstream you'd be able to simply choose different derivation paths for different games and other purposes.

Bitcoin is people who decided to agree on the rules. They simply use software to automatically verify and follow these rules, and that's why it's immutable: you can't simultaneously change all people's minds. And whoever's mind is changes is left behind losing the opportunity, which makes no sense. The consensus reinforces itself.

The most confusing part is why is the output type detected if those outputs aren't spent? Usually everyone pays to a hash (of a script or pk) or a pubkey directly (the very first tx type). But why does mempool detect these as multisigs? I didn't know it's possible to advertise such a tx type and even its parameters in the output...

2023-03-16 10:53:00

Does anyone know what these txs are? https://mempool.space/address/1EQ8aXFwNDTyMNDD3k5XF9NjV3TJpeQMLp They all have the same amount, the type is unknown and they're all 1-of-3 multisigs. Not a single one was spent. What's going on?

2023-01-25 10:55:26

So how exactly Nostr deals with this type of problems: https://i.imgur.com/bdOJzds.png ? Or is it Iris-specific? I guess the event is on a relay I'm not subscribed to. But it really ruins the experience.

Payment fail is a social construct 😂 If your wallet retried a payment because the first attempt failed due to insufficient liquidity on the route, was it a failure? It simply hid the error from you and tried another route. So a "true" fail the user sees is simply an arbitrarily defined timeout, most of the time. Or you could've run out of routes which usually takes a lot of time, I'd say hours, from my rebalancing experience. All in all, it varies and I think we should consider every failed attempt as a payment failure even if it almost doesn't affect the UX.

In this time and age it's so much more important to define what your project/protocol is NOT than what it IS. And then follow these limitations strictly. Knowing the boundaries is extremely useful as then you can carefully plan and build within them not inflating the purpose.

The problem is not setting up relays but taking the load off the existing public relays or distributing it. Maybe it can be solved client-side: you have a big list of hardcoded relays (and can add your own ofc) but the client picks 5-10 at random and only uses them.

2022-12-17 11:10:01

So can I check the feeds of the people I follow on anigma?

2022-12-16 23:22:44

So how does this scale to celebrity-level popularity? When hundreds of thousands followers read a few popular accounts. Would relays just die in that case?

Having a stable, simple layer for something very basic is always an undersell because people focus on simplicity and think it's a limitation. While it's actually flexibility. Then again, there's a lot to do to make this simplicity work reliably.

I can see nostr being more than just a Twitter replacement. It might just as well be a lightweight general purpose pubsub layer for whatever you want like IoT or monitoring. Big corps don't plan for this even if they develop open networks. They're on anarchic enough.
