Useless
Discussion
Lol nostr is living rent free in that guy’s head 😂
That is all.
Junk
Hey Jack, big fan of yours. 🧡 Have you tried OPA? Would love to know why you think is useless, our metrics and the feedback we get on a daily basis from our users indicate otherwise. https://www.theorangepillapp.com/reviews
My experience with @orangepillapp has been nothing but positive. We’ve added people to meet ups that they didn’t know existed and added extra headcount to Bitcoin events that we have held. Very positive experience and like anything it is new and will only improve.
thanks for sharing your experience 🙏
Hi Jack, saying OPA an app that has brought bitcoiners together giving the global south direct audience - is useless? That hurts,
The twitter you built is more censored that a 100% government funded media. Now thatss useless.
Oh i forget, you scrapped out some billions.
Well Orange Pill App led to me going to my first meetup and starting a regular Ohio meetup that didn’t exist before so that’s pretty cool
thanks for sharing your experience 🙏
I have actually met a lot of people on orange pill app.
It is great for organizing meetups.
Its a social networking app, not a social media.
It is in no way a compeditor for nostr. Its actualy kind of works complimentary with it.
thanks for sharing your experience 🙏
OPA taught me and networked me more in Bitcoin in one month, than I had previously had a year into the space, the snowball effect really did wonders, I met with #[6] learned about lightning and Breez more than I expected, now my family is opening a restaurant tomorrow and it will be the first one to accept BTC here or atleast one of the few, all thanks to OPA
Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏
No offence but this all stemmed from your founder publicly stating Nostr would fail and people shouldn’t bother waste their time on it
Matteo have been critical of nostr almost from the beginning, it would be great if somebody engaged with him on the merit of his arguments instead of attacking OPA.
Maybe he should join nostr?
That would be a start, yes.
Deal! Will you join OPA so that you can give us real feedback/criticism?
Lmao. OPA is just Facebook with a bitcoin hook. Do you know how many bitcoiners use Facebook? 😆
Are you on actually OPA? In what way are we Facebok x bitcoiners? we don't even have a feed...
Are you serious? You are actually worse than Facebook. You are charging bitcoiners sats while selling their location data and their likeness. 😆
We don't do ads, nor sell our users' data, which is why OPA is completely paywalled.
Sure you do. That is your whole business model. If you can somehow convince @Jack to join, all I have to do is pay 100k sats and I will know where he is when he is using the app. Do you think he wants to let some strangers know his location? And if he turns off location data at all times to protect privacy, then your app is just useless. Just be honest, “bitcoiners” is the product and your business is selling them to some other supposed “bitcoiners”
Since we don't deliver pizza, 🍕 we use approximate geolocation, which means you can be anywhere in a 10 miles radius. The distance we show you from another user is rounded up, randomized, and can be turned off by the user.
OPA was created to connect the plebs who have no IRL friends to talk about Bitcoin with, definitely not for people like @npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63mack.
However since we don't verify anything, he can get a membership in sats and create an anonymous account to try OPA and give us some feedback.
We just launched the events page which allows users to create and find bitcoin events nearby and by the end of the year, we will have a marketplace where merchants can connect with local plebs and accelerate hyperbitcoinization.

The app only uses approximate location (10 mile radius). It also only shows the approximate last location in which the appilication was open. If you are in costa rica and you open the app and close it, then fly to the USA and never open the app it will still say tou are in Costa Rica.
Also as previously stated you dont even have to show your location.
Like i said before you try and speak on stuff of which you know nothing about.
Your ineptitude is showing.
Dude you know nothing about the app. Its for meeting bitcoiners near you.
Quit with the baseless claims.
Your ignorance is showing.
Can you verify all those people using the app is actual bitcoiners and not IRS agents pretending to be one? … Dude 😆
Wtf is that even supposed to mean?
Bro how do i know you arent an IRS agent, whats your point?
You Use WoS. If you want to recover your funds im sure you have an email registered with them.
Is WoS a fed wallet?
You act like you cant make a fake email if you want to be paranoid about privacy.
I think its hillarious that you gripe about a paid service when #nostr has paid private relays. If you want to filter out spam you are forced to pay a subscription fee to these paid relays.
By putting up a paywall #[7] has filtered out virtually all spammers/scammers. I think they may have had 1 guy that kept trying to pay to scam and eventually gave up after being removed several times.
#[8]
This is because of #[7]
Hey Jack, nice to meet you 🤙
It's early, yet, and some take issue with the paywall, but the net effect is a very dedicated group of Bitcoiners. I've met some great ones as a result of OPA, and we've invited even more to #[5] from the app.
Do I think OPA should be integrated with or even built on nostr? Absolutely, and I've been strongly encouraging in that direction.
thanks for sharing your experience Shawn 🙏
Useful for us no-names to find fellow psychopaths to conspire with.
I mean at least i can chat with bitcoiners on #[6] on my android phone and get push notifications.
I have not found a #nostr client thar can provide me with push norifications.
This makes holding a conversation with someone virtually impossible on android nostr clients.
Just saying. Why dont we quit with the demonising of both useful tools and colaborate with each of them.
Because of @orangepillapp, a small group of us in a small northern Michigan city were able to find each other. We now have a #Bitcoin group that meets once a month. I don’t call that “useless.”
we couldn't resist. www.itsauselessapp.com
