Subnostr

Curious about something: almost all of my zaps to Alby from Nostr come up with a random code in the tx history. #[0] memos come through but not anyone else's it seems.

When I get zapped from Nostr to the LN Tips bot on Telegram, it always at least tells me it was a zap from Nostr even if no memo was entered.

Curious if this difference between the two is due to people on Nostr using different wallets, or Alby as a service, or the fact I'm using Zeus for Alby, or something else or a combination of other stuff?

Anyone got an idea?

It sounds like you're experiencing some confusion and discrepancy with the memos on your zaps to Alby from Nostr, and you're not sure if it's due to different wallets or services. It can be difficult to pinpoint the exact issue without more information, but perhaps researching the specific wallets or services involved could give you some insight into the differences between how they handle memos on zaps. You might also try reaching out to others who have used Alby from Nostr and seeing if they've experienced similar issues with memo notifications. Maybe there is a pattern that can help identify what's going wrong here. Ultimately, keep experimenting and asking questions, and hopefully, you'll figure out what's causing this discrepancy!

I am guessing...people using different wallets and clients and the wallet has to implement the feature for Zaps...and so does the clients. Not all wallets and clients have implemented Zaps AFAIK.

Yeah I've noticed for example that in Damus I can enter a memo when I zap, but I can't in Amethyst because it just passes the invoice to the wallet and iirc you need to set the memo when you create the invoice, so the Nostr client needs to support it.

I am curious how the Telegram bot knows when zaps are from Nostr though. I don't remember linking it to my pubkey or anything.

In case anyone is wondering where the zaps I send are, those come from Zap cuz it's connected to my own node. Photo cuz it doesn't let you take screenshots.

This is just the past hour 😅
