Last Notes npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Crushed under it's own weight trying to become an everything app. I'm probably one of the few people who think nostr should have never grown beyond a Twitter alternative. There are already protocols that exist for a lot of added usecases that have been added. I don't think I'll ever enderstand the obsession with trying to add every feature under the sun to nostr. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon In the context of #bitcoin #nostr, I've come to really dislike the phrase "we're so early". It comes off as buzzwordy to me, especially when one of those projects has been around for over a decade. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I really dislike the idea of nostr trying to become the everything app because it feels like instead of just reinventing the wheel, devs are trying to reinvent the whole damn car and I think that is just unnecessary. I think if we strip nostr down to what its original purpose was supposed to be, a Twitter alternative, It worked perfectly fine. Relays were relatively simple to deploy, and clients only needed to do so much. But now we have people wanting nostr to do everything, and things aren't as simple. People are gonna say, "Well clients don't have to implement everything." That may be true on paper, but in practice, the majority effectively dictates what's required. Videos, torrents, streams, a reddit alternative, etc. don't belong on nostr in my opinion. Those should be spun off into independent projects. Things like relay-specific notes end up siloing discussion topics and ultimately make them no better than fediverse instances. I'm not a developer, nor am I a software engineer, but it looks to me that nostr has failed to be simple. But I'm just a single, imperfect, person. — This is a comment on: https://yakihonne.com/article/naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzp978pfzrv6n9xhq5tvenl9e74pklmskh4xw6vxxyp3j8qkke3cezqyw8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytfsxyh8jcttd95x7mnwv5hxxmmdqyw8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytfsxgh8jcttd95x7mnwv5hxxmmdqy08wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytfsxvhxgmmjv9nxzcm5dae8jtn0wfnsz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjmcpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vpj9ejx7unpveskxar0wfujummjvuqq6vfhxy6nqvf3x5mrgvf5xqwa25vr npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I really dislike the idea of nostr trying to become the everything app because it feels like instead of just reinventing the wheel, devs are trying to reinvent the whole damn car and I think that is just unnecessary.

Would allow me to block all the bridges and actually be able to search nostr and nostr only! npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Take a look at this #coinjoin transaction and tell me what you see. #asknostr I bet most of you see privacy. But me? I see #bitcoin scaling. How? More efficient transactions mean more transactions per block, and mean more throughput. Couple that with Bitcoiners actually having a little faith and trust in Bitcoin as a technology meaning people feel comfortable doing conformation-less transacting in the real world and Bitcoin is off to the moon. https://mempool.space/tx/43e18aacf17a821cc68c754ca73ff957baf67a42e2eafefd8ea75fb0aca09820 npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Most #bitcoin enthusiasts forget that any traditional transactions outside of cash are not as instant as they believe! They take hours and sometimes days to actually settle! When you write a check or use your credit card the entity you are paying isn't getting their money instantly. Why is Bitcoin treated differently? Why is it considered slow when it only takes as little as 10 minutes for payments to be settled? npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon The way I see it, a #bitcoin transaction in the mempool is good enough as payment for most goods and services. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Also, I think there is too much emphasis on the "number of transactions per second" #bitcoin can do. Every form of payment has a period of time in a transaction in which a party is missing funds until said transaction settles. The reason credit cards seem to be able to handle a high number of transactions per second is because a third party aka the credit card company, is the one missing funds in the transaction and not either of the transacting parties. If we are putting enough trust in other forms of payments that these vacuums of funds can exist, why can't we put that same level of trust into Bitcoin and transact without confirmation? Well, at least when it comes to transacting for goods and services. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Native multi-party-in and multi-party-out transactions scale #bitcoin so hard! npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon That's exactly what it was. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon For some reason, noStrudel on firefox isn't detecting nostr-relay-tray so I can't select it for the cashing relay. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Interesting concept for a nostr client that's for sure. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I really, really like @npub189j…3tg8, but there are one main thing that's really stopping me from switching to it and that is the lack of a global feed. And it really isn't because I want to actually view a global feed but it's nice to be able to search that firehose and not just follows. Useful for when I want to see what nostr as a "whole" are saying about a given keyword or hashtag. Any chance you might add a global feed @npub1acg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeyse9p35c? npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Still testing, for better or worse. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon still testing npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Let's try it now npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Let's try it now npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon testing npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon It's a damn shame too. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Let's try this again npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon nope... npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Giving the #nostr relay tray by @npub1syj…f6wl a try. Hopefully this write test works. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Yes, yes, and YES! "Nostr bros" want nostr to be the end-all, be-all of everything ever. And because of that the scope bloat is unreal. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I am going to make a very bold prediction. #bitcoin will be abandoned and forgotten long before the final coin is mined. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I saw @npub1jlr…ynqn post about an SSB dev leaving and I ended up going down a rabbit hole I wasn't expecting to go down. First, I remembered SSB exists and that I have a presence there, albeit a dormant one. After scrolling down my short timeline someone I apparently follow had posted about how they came across and really liked the Gemini protocol. I vaguely remember looking into the protocol years ago, but decided to give it another brief look. I can understand why people might like it, and I can see why it won't be widely adopted. Watching a video about Gemini from "May Contain Hackers 2022", the presenter mentioned something called the tildeverse. From what I can gather the tildeverse is based on tildes which are small social communities that gather around public access *nix servers. Something I don't think I would get into, but something that exists. And It made me realize that people are building social communities around social tech that you nor I have ever heard of and may never hear of. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon And no one paid that lightning invoice. I am not surprised in the slightest. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon And no one paid that lightning invoice. I am not surprised in the slightest. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Let's see if anyone is willing to pay this random #lightning invoice. lnbc400u1pnzvlqfpp5j0h4ks0tt0e4msdtejwd6w0leumgssg3em55yylj870nyzjr8kxsdzgt9hh2grpwfjjqcmjv9a8jgrfvcs8jmm4ypcxz7fqw35xjueqwfskuer0d5sxjmnkda5kxefwcqzzsxqyz5vqsp5mkkwp0lfha422knxusmnw8eqywmdy69faavra5v877jxfnt6h2hs9qyyssqp3p0kpjwfd02sfz9kh24kudvpcta4g7klj2y0670jx5qyqx32yxpc8gttjm9rvdvnekfpcqhlumz0w6csxzd3v5v7g05z07m9e32r6sqa4d7pc npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Hang on! @npub1ye5…knpr does nostrudel use ipfs at all? Just installed the ipfs desktop node and the firefox extension, and when I reloaded nostrudel it was coming through my local gateway. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Looking at some of the new noStrudel features and I gotta say, associating a color to an identity based on npub is something I would have never thought of. Also like the way it now shows zaps, likes, reposts, etc. I like what I see @npub1ye5…knpr npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon And the transaction in question if you want to verify yourself. 7923e59abd8f8ab40dcc7915ae864d8b7ad6776811ba4d478f42248a7827a7f3 npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Wtf is this censored nonsense‽ I'm just asking for a simple translation! If #nostr is meant to be unstoppable, then simple #translations like this can not be censored. PERIOD! https://image.nostr.build/9a5b68ce2ea62d5ccd77565c179057106f938044e23301a5abe267ef2c6cd463.png npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon It's not so much that is "the best", it's just what I've used the longest and I'm too lazy to switch. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I only use noStrudel. It does the one thing I want to get out of nostr and that is a Twitter alternative. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I've heard that too. Though from my understanding part of that is thanks to geo-locked relays. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I'm not overly technically minded but from the way you put point one, it sounds like nostr has a really nasty drug addiction, metaphorically speaking. And point two is something I've been banging my drum hard about for so long. It's refreshing to hear a bigger name finally saying what many refuse to believe. When there are so many features married to Bitcoin and, as you correctly put it, most people are anti-bitcoin, you drive those people away—closing nearly all avenues of growth. And when that happens and nostr becomes nothing just another failed social network experiment, it won't be around when the world actually needs/wants it. And for all the "Bitcoin/Nostr is inevitable" people in the comments: The arrogance of inevitability forgets the only inevitable thing in life is death. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Never mind! Figured it out! npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon And the github repo that I was using has now been deleted. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Starting to wonder if I should remove the NIP-05 address I use as it is not a domain I directly control, thus have no proper way of verifying who I am the way the NIP is actually supposed to. #nostr npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Here's a #controversial opinion: #nostr is not the be-all, end-all when it comes to big tech replacements, nor should it be! When I first joined the nostr ecosystem, it was just a simple well-thought-out Twitter replacement. But developers seem so obsessed with creating "The next big thing! ™" that in the eight months that I've been here I've seen a Reddit clone get tacked on, a Wikipedia clone get tacked on, a Youtube replacement get tacked on, an Instagram replacement get tacked on, a Twitch replacement tacked on, a few attempts to tack on a Patreon-like replacement, a few more things being tacked on that I can't remember off the top of my head, and now I'm seeing people calling for WebMD-like thing to be tacked on. Not to mention all the NIP bloat needed to support this nonsense. I look at my password manager and see roughly 30-35 accounts that I have used regularly in the last 6 months. Could all those be condensed into a single public key if everything was built on nostr? Absolutely! Do I want that? Abso-fucking-lutely not! That is 30-35 identities that are compartmentalized and segregated from each other. One does not consciously know about the other, so to speak. This is one thing ActivityPub services get right! While yes, a user is siloed into a single instance of a given service, different services are effectively segregated from each other by means of average user ability. The average Mastodon user isn't going to know that they can follow a Lemmy post or a PeerTube channel from Mastodon, let alone even know how to do that. So I implore devs to take a step back, and instead of needlessly reinventing the wheel here on nostr, find an open-source project that already exists and does what you want and help improve it. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Brownies!!!! #foodstr https://image.nostr.build/6588efe5a2b0dffc06da42c566f017de5c0b399b411f06ea72836330de01a1c8.jpg npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon This is the first time I've ever seen a canary get removed. This is wild! npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon The basic idea is to put a copy of a note, either yours or someone else's, onto relays that they aren't on. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Any way to mass-mute/block all @mostr.pub accounts? I'm trying to see if there's any discussion on some topics on nostr and the mostr bridge has completely polluted the results. #asknostr npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon People who think that everything, and I literally mean EVERYTHING, is better off on #nostr will cause nostr to be crushed under its own bloat. I'm in the extreme minority, but nostr should have stayed as just a microblogging/blogging protocol. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I don't even... #what https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wheMp3NM-w8 npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon There were three major themes that I personally saw: 1. "The onboarding sucks because I don't understand what most of this nonsense means." This comes down to, at least in my opinion, those with some sort of background in Bitcoin making stuff for those that most likely have some sort of background in Bitcoin. 2. "I see crypto bullshit so I'm noping the fuck out and not wasting my time." Saw that coming from lightyears away. A problem I've mentioned multiple times. 3. "A lack of service-side moderation means this is going to turn into an illegal mess, if it hasn't already." This, to me, comes down to a mix of genuine concern plus political beliefs plus not understanding how to curate one's own content intake. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Don't ever let anyone tell you that Yamaha is not a #music company again! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4L4a9v9sOUQ npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Don't get #sick folks! npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I think that some of that comes down to the fact nostr was conceived and is mainly being developed by people from the bitcoin community. And as a result, the largest group of people on nostr are bitcoiners. Doesn't help that many "normies" think that bitcoin=scam, so when those same "normies" join nostr some of the first things they see are about bitcoin so they nope the fuck out. It ends up being a chicken-and-egg problem caused by the fox having a field day in the henhouse. I think that if bitcoin haters can be convinced to not just join, but ignore bitcoin content altogether, we can get the diversification of content people want. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon It was instant. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Now that I'm using the nos.social relay, let's see how quickly this gets cross-posted. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon In a vacuum and on the surface the convenience is fascinating, but it's everything it's connected to that scares the absolute hell out of me. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I can see it. I'm currently on nostrudel. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon An hour's delay isn't excellent. However, it could be due to a multitude of reasons. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Now that I finally got tweeter.nos.social to finally work, let's see if I can actually crosspost between nostr and X. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon First snow of the year! #weather npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Makes you wonder how many other such inconsistencies there are across the most popular clients. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon It is technically only for brand new users in two countries. BUT, it will most likely expand to more coutnries first, then EXISTING users in those countries. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Sounds like a more robust and standardizing NIP is needed to either rebuild and improve zaps or a completely different method to achieve the same basic feature. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Would be interested in hearing your reasons as to why. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I did it!

The furthest I had ever made it previously was just making past Fort Joy, almost 5 years ago. #accomplishments #videogames #rpg #dos2 npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Good to know that snort allows proof-of-work for posts. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Great to finally have SimpleX desktop proper on Windows! #nevent1q…hnk0 npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I did it... 30 days, 30 posts. Saw very little traction, though that was kind of expected. I think #nostr is taking steps to be the right solution, but it is still very young and as a result, it could still die in the cradle. Don't be afraid to build out but NEVER neglect what is already here. #nevent1q…4c73 npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Almost forgot to post something today. Thankfully I remembered to do so right before bed. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon You just got to realize that sometimes it just is what it is. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I've been learning much about #Bitcoin and #Lightning over the last two days. But there's one thing I'm not 100% sure I have wrapped my head around and that is moving Bitcoin from a non-custodial Bitcoin wallet, cold or hot, to a non-custodial Lightning Network wallet. Specifically doing so through your own Lightning node with no 3rd parties. My understanding is it takes 2 on-chain transactions, one transaction to move Bitcoin from your Bitcoin wallet to the Lightning node wallet, with a second transaction to open a channel between the Lightning node and the Lightning wallet, and a Lightning transaction to push sats from the Lightning node to the Lightning wallet. Do I have this correct? Also note that this is all theoretical as I don't have any Bitcoin infrastructure. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Or any other client for that matter. Outside of Gossip of course. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I wonder if web clients will start adding proof of work for posting? (Note sent from Gossip desktop client, with 6 leading zeros for proof of work.) npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon There was something I wanted to say, but I completely forgot what it was. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon #anime MC: "Why is part of my memory missing?" Me who's never read the source material: "I know! It's the plot for the next season!" npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon If someone is out of your league, that means you're out of their league... Right? #showerthoughts npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon An incomplete and very rough draft of a NIP I propose that I am dubbing "NIP-151". The intention of this NIP is to have list of of NIPs should implement at a minimum. Keep in mind this NIP is being created by and from the viewpoint of someone who is not a developer nor completely understands intricacies of each individual NIP. #nostr #nostrdev https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JXGP3EjDSP0yE7Pxorv27SG7Aj9-834FwJKiuikTiEU/edit?usp=sharing npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Good night. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Yep, less focusing on the "Next Big Thing" and more refinement of what's already there. That and more standardization cross clients. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Weird... I'm trying to look at snort desktop and it'll load the notes my feed but if I click on a specific note, it won't... I'm logged in with alby so that shouldn't be the issue. What the heck is going on? #asknostr npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon I did not expect developing a a #nostr NIP from scratch, even one that will contain no code like the one I'm working on, would be so difficult. Then again that could very well by my laziness talking. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon A classic #procrastination tactic is to wait until the last minute before saying, "I'll worry about it tomorrow." npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon That's not bad idea. Just a matter of figuring out what what NIPs should be on that list. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon If you're around for long enough you'll notice that most of the recommended follows are vocal bitcoiners and as a result a lot of the conversations surround bitcoin and to an extent nostr itself. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon The idea of it having to be every dev for themselves when it comes to developing clients. Why have 50 devs working on 50 different good, but not really great, clients, when they should be grouping up and focusing on 2-3 bigger and more robust clients. To me, this would create a standard of what NIPs Twitter alternatives should be implementing by default. Then again I'm not a developer so keep my ignorance in mind. That also leads to this feeling of not really knowing what the hell nostr is supposed to be. I use it exclusively as a Twitter/X alternative. That's what people fleeing X most likely want. But we have 50 devs working on 50 good but not great clients that fill 50 wildly different roles. That's going to confuse the hell out of the normies. My peanut gallery take is devs should focus on establishing a large userbase for the microblogging apps, then figure out what roles nostr tackles next. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Yep, nostr devs seem so obsessed with this idea of needing to reinvent not only the wheel, but ever god-damned part needed to to build the car. I've seen the idea of coalescing around a small handful of clients multiple times, only for that idea to be shot down immediately. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Bitcoin worship, as you put it, is a noticeable problem don't get me wrong. But I would say that it isn't the biggest problem. That would go to the idea that it's how nostr works conceptually and how difficult for the average non-tech person to wrap their head around. Granted the bitcoin worship does poison the will quite a bit, but I think it would still be an issue without the poisoned well. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Notice what? Body posters? I don't pay attention to global all that much, but I do notice it every now and again when I DO venture into global. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon lol npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon In the end it's obviously not my place to tell you what to do. But do be mindful of the type of people you might attract if you do go that route. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Do I know how all gamers thing? Most likely not. Do I know how some lonely gamers think? YEP! npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon You never know what people might be interested in. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Not showing up as such on Primal. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon lol npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon That's weird. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon We gamers do think different. Though ones life circumstances can factor into that too. I have no idea. I assume they're out there somewhere. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Primal is my primary client. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon 4200 what? npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Is anyone else on Primal getting random DM's from @npub1relayxmv7tvfqa3jx36m6hqzlqt3vlgwe8hg004d6xyudzmp6v6q9p35vr about a lightning invoice for attempting to post to their relay despite said relay not even being on your relay list? #asknostr https://image.nostr.build/d11053af8bb6571c6e88bff35fcf09c2e84a2cfcb606fc1bfbfda06ef0335857.png npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Well, the current #anime season is starting to wrap up. npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Everyone should read the #manwha "How to Become a Dragon"! npub1gymmqyfef474vhgfr4qnz8ckm64g0yz320f0qk3zusnjrgpe5h8qvv7zgr teldon Oh absolutely. That's why most "normies" back out when they join or don't bother joining at all. Unfortunately, nostr is in the "chicken and egg" phase so it's kind of difficult to pull in enough new and "normal" users to help diversify content enough to start a chain reaction. Sadly content isn't the only issue nostr has right now.
