I’ve learned im pretty addicted to it and i need to get my life together fr right now 🫠
Twitter withdrawals support is here to help 🐶🐾🫂❤️
That algorithmic crap is poison. It's as hard to quit as any drug.
NEW NIFTY, WHO DIS?
Delete the app.
Why not hop up in my Lamborghini Gelato?
Axed before ‘X’ with absolutely no regrets.
I still click in once in a while from something posted here but afaik my account is ‘deleted’ and I don’t miss it at all.
It's an interesting equation. I had no following there (you did). That makes it easier to leave. Also I began to see the algorithm(s) manipulating me... that makes leaving easier too. It's frankly astonishing the difference here at #nostr. There are no tentacles here. and you do feel that hole. Less engaging in some ways. And far more peaceful.
You gotta rip the band aid. There are many banned words and phrases on Twitter. A mere mention of a guillotine usually does the trick.
For me it hurt when I logged back in.
Would love your thoughts on stamps Nifty.. being that they are not prunable and are causing considerable bloat, and will continue to do so as those behind them are only increasing their ‘minting’ of them, what do you see as the best course of action?
Also, do you have any thoughts around the source of the funding behind taproot wizards, being that it is partly from Starkware (Joe Lubin, Vitalik)?
Do you see it as an attack on bitcoin?
Appreciate anything you have to say on it all 🙏
i thought there was a patch in core that pruned unspendable pubkey outputs from the utxoset but i might be tripping 😂
that’d basically neutralize stamp’s impact on utxo bloat
I don’t really care enough about the taproot wizards to give a rats ass about where their funds come from, but it’s a good indication of the social network/crypto braintrust/era that those guys are plugged into
says more about who’s attention they were able to access than intentions imo
Yes @Portland.HODL has a PR but it is not merged yet
Note to self: I’ve been warned.
It should be a relief from that hate machine.
I deleted my Twitter account a few months ago but I really miss the quality of information I could get. There's a lot of bullshit and emotional manipulation going on but I think the speed and quality of certain info on the platform makes it more useful than pretty much anything else. By useful I just mean interesting I guess, I wasn't really using that information to really do anything different, but it was definitely interesting and I learned a lot over the years. I might go back one day, idk. I hope nostr gets better.
Ah the art of writing addictive software. I once taught a class on it at a programming bootcamp.
