Nostr Web Client

there is a large moneyary investment in this space in centralized nostr (primal) and centralized bitcoin (cashu)

Criticizing any of these? Good luck getting a grant or invited to that next prestigious event.

nostr was more fun when it wasn’t being subverted by money and influence peddling.

Unfortunately they can’t buy me or shut me up. I couldn’t give more of a shit about money or influence.

I didn't realize you had a beef with Cashu.

I have been openly critical about that project and its design choices and been treated like a red-headed piece of shit by a lot of people on here, particularly developers.

I have nothing against Primal, but I'm not interested in using their walled garden setup, so it is what it is.

i had no issues with him, until he started attacking me just because I wasn't 100% on board with cashu

i guess the "bitcoin for signal" and "bitcoin for imessage" irked me a lot as well. affinity scamming is such a bad look.

M0053 2mo ago

Yeah, he tends to do this.

And just to be honest, it's a red flag to me.

probably just defensive because he has to deal with the centralization criticism all the time. i can see how that would be annoying after awhile.

I do too, and I feel for him, but it's going to happen with that project. When a bunch of people are purists.

anything I can help with or clarify related to cashu? it's an open source project, we welcome pull requests.

Nope.
