fwiw, working in "stealth mode" is a dark pattern.
"Build in the open" beats "stealth mode" every day of the week.

agreed, stealth mode is lame
No you should spend weeks working by yourself on something that the team is already including in the next release
Collaborate whenever possible. Especially in a space like freedom tech.
There are likely too many people wrestling with the same problems, trying to build the same (or similar) things in isolation.
This is true, but freedom tech implies exactly that! You will get all sorts of approaches to solve different problems. Isn't that why we love free markets?
In the spirit of working in the open, ive started building Nostrpkgs https://github.com/jurraca/nostrpkgs , basically nixpkgs for Nostr stuff.
Beyond getting a set of packages defined in one place for all to use, i think getting a declarative config for relays would make it infinitely easier to stand one up. We want a ton of relays, so we have to make it easy to set one up.
Lots to do but itll be fun promise 😉. Hit up the repo with requests or ideas. cheers 🫡
