It is far better to try to understand why people think differently from you than to shout at them for not thinking the same.
Don't let the algorithms win.

Ive been trying to pay an overseas contractor and it's taken over a month and still not arrived in their account even after doing all the required KYC/AML BS.
Unfortunately they live in Pakistan where BTC is illegal.

You need to add a LN Address to your profile.
Once done, people can send you sats either by going to your profile, or directly on any of your posts.
Sending sats is "zapping".

Iris shows you how many relays you are connected to on the Home screen in top left hand corner.
Very useful feature imo.
Maybe start there?

Brave search is good and allows you to use !bangs (https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/4410152384781-What-bangs-can-I-use-in-Brave-Search-) to quickly search using other search engines, direct from the search bar.
There is also a "Find elsewhere" section included in every results page (about ten results down) that allows you to quickly search other search engines if you've not found what your were looking for via Brave.
Takes a bit if getting used to but offers a superior search experience imo.

Have you read this?:

I'm not sure Ledger is such a great idea for multisig based on this (unless they've sorted this out since 2020).

#[0] This might be a silly question but if I set up a private relay (to store my updates) is there any way to make sure that the address of this relay is not known publicly?

2023-02-07 16:18:01

Relay settings screen on Snort is amazing - can see which relays are connected, latency, number of failed requests/responses and it's easy to add/remove relays too 👏

2023-02-05 07:28:52

The relay counter (shows how many relays you are connected to) in the top left of home screen on Iris is really useful as well. Helps to stay on top of relay management.
Notifications also better on Iris (not sure if they're actually working on Snort atm 🤷).
Settings section on Iris needs some work (looks awful on mobile/cell screen).

2023-02-05 07:15:07

I've been running all of the major in-browser nostr clients for several days.
IMO, the top two are iris.to and snort.social.
Iris ( #[0] ) best in terms of UX but I'm having to jump over to Snort ( #[1] ) to manage and send zaps/tips.
Two thing that make Iris better is that it remembers where you were in your feed when you go "back" and the feed itself is better (more Twitter-like) in terms of context within conversations.
Both brilliant though and being updated on a near daily basis.
🎩s off to all involved!

Also check out http://nostr.watch for a list of decent relays.
It's a list that is constantly changing so you need to be on top of your relays but that's half the fun, right?!

2023-02-03 23:58:44

Oh and if you're on Android, you can get Kiwi Browser and install nos2x extension so you can log in (and out) of all of these sites really quickly to check them out without having to give them your private key

What a mind bending episode!
Key point I took from it:
With ChatGPT and other AI driving the cost of content creation to ~0, and with the advances being worked on re: Lightning, the way for users to be able to determine which content is signal, and which is noise will be by the amount of sats donated (boosted) to the creator for their post/tweet/object. For why would people/bots give up their 100% scarce money if it wasn’t for something they thought was really good.
This will also contribute positively to the creator economy through lots of micro-payments adding up. Can also be used to eliminate spam.
