Full disclosure time! I'm extremely excited to announce that I'm doing Developer Relations for nostr:npub10qdp2fc9ta6vraczxrcs8prqnv69fru2k6s2dj48gqjcylulmtjsg9arpj. πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

So, what the hell does that mean? It means I'm going to continue to do community building. It means I'm going to continue to market and talk about apps and services that I use and that I'm passionate about. It means I'm going to continue to create guides and tutorials, and provide technical support for this community.

It's what I've been doing for the past two and a half years.

What's changed? Not much. I'm just going to get paid for projects that I work on now.

I'll still be shilling all of your apps and services, everything across the Nostr ecosystem. Maybe with a little more directed focus.

I guess I'm officially a paid shill now. Feel free to make memes. πŸ‘€πŸ˜‚

But if I'm being honest, and I always am, I would talk about #mkstack even if it wasn't part of my job. I talk about Primal, Olas, Notedeck, and a dozen other apps all of the time.

Thanks all. Without you, none of this would be possible. Thanks for all of your support the last two and a half years. πŸ€™πŸ»πŸ«‚πŸ’œ

CONGRATS BRO!!! πŸ™πŸ’œ

Thanks!

Congrats, Derek!

Thanks!

Congrats. You picked the best project.

Using #mkstack and seeing what's possible just blew me away. This is the future.

πŸ”₯β€οΈπŸ«‚

Congratulations and thank you for all you do for Nostr!!! 🍻

Thank you. I wouldn't do it if I didn't love it.

I would have recommended someone positive, likeable, based, immersed, capable, intelligent, having demonstrated past ability to perform the job requirements, who could be trusted to represent the everyman while defending the boundaries defined by the principles upon which we stand, but I guess we just get Derek.

πŸ«‚

Pura Vida Derek πŸ«‚πŸ€™πŸΌπŸ€πŸ’œ

Congrats sir!

Cool

Super cool!

Congratulations πŸŽ‰

Congratulations πŸ₯‚

Interesting stuff is happening. I am here for it.

I've self hosted an instance of Ditto on a VM from nostr:npub10qdp2fc9ta6vraczxrcs8prqnv69fru2k6s2dj48gqjcylulmtjsg9arpj myself. It worked great, except it didn't resolve npubs into names for me.

Maybe I should try again πŸ€”

CONGRATULATIONS Derek !!!!

Congratz you deserve it.πŸ™ Does this mean you loose the role as CEO of #nostr !?😜🀣🀣🀣

If nostr:npub1nl8r463jkdtr0qu0k3dht03jt9t59cttk0j8gtxg9wea2russlnq2zf9d0 has her way, I'll never lose that title 😑

🀣

If we're being honest though, it's all nostr:npub1hqaz3dlyuhfqhktqchawke39l92jj9nt30dsgh2zvd9z7dv3j3gqpkt56s's fault. He said that back in like January 2023 as a joke and it kind of stuck.

If the Jacks can be the CEO of two companies, you can be CEO of the nostr protocol and work in Developer Relations at Soapbox. πŸ˜‰

πŸ’― Hey, I have 14 projects going, fractional marketing director in the morning, broadcast journalist in the afternoon, and a yoga teacher, so just change our names to Jack.

Okay, Jeather.

🀣 Ok, Jerek

Derek represents the best of us on Nostr. If not CEO, then certainly Ambassador.

i appreciate the kind words but im just a guy that's passionate about nostr!

It’s true πŸ’«

The Honorable Derek Ross. If at dinner parties, His Excellency would be polite.

I do usually get my way… πŸ˜‰

Nice one πŸ‘

Congrats! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Ty sir

Always knew you were a big corporate sell-out!

Just kiddin’, this is awesome. I love what nostr:npub10qdp2fc9ta6vraczxrcs8prqnv69fru2k6s2dj48gqjcylulmtjsg9arpj is building and you’re the perfect shill for the job! πŸ’œβš‘οΈπŸ€™

Thank you sir πŸ’œπŸ€™πŸ»πŸ«‚

🀘🏼

I can't believe we get to work together and get paid to do this crazy thing for #Nostr!

I can't ask for a better DevRel than you. Humbled, tbh. Let's make magic!

we have a good dymanic together, so this should be fun. thank you :)

we dragged the energy of the Nostr Lounge in Vegas with us for sure!

We snagged the best at nostr:npub10qdp2fc9ta6vraczxrcs8prqnv69fru2k6s2dj48gqjcylulmtjsg9arpj in nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424!

Full disclosure time for me as well, I'm the Marketing Director at Soapbox. After years of agency marketing "the big boys" in tech, I'm thrilled to work with this team. Not just because of Derek, but it's loaded with rock stars like nostr:npub1q3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnws6cd26p, who built #MKStack. Now, you can all vibe code #Nostr apps. πŸš€ LFG!

MKStack isn't our only product, but it's the one that can change <> all this.

Imagine how many #Nostr apps are coming... I'm not talking about "let's make it for the heck of it and abandon it." The cream will rise...

Someone here has an idea for this space. The one that will take flight and won't be abandoned like "just another project." Perhaps there are dozens of these. The end goal always being to bring more people πŸ“ here. To Nostr.

Now imagine the speed at which these will all come... 🀯

No one is ready. This is gonna be a blast! πŸ’₯ The dream team is forming. I'm so glad to be here!

Here's our chance to show the rest of the world what a fun time we're having here on Nostr, just building. Create, iterate, ship. Repeat. Lean back. Let go. Let the vibe coding renaissance take hold. πŸ”₯

nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzq0mhp4ja8fmy48zuk5p6uy37vtk8tx9dqdwcxm32sy8nsaa8gkeyqqs8jlqqjumlj0p9w3wca8q5ekycr5asm27qpydjxd5fv6wreh2l5dq8nwpyy

Amazing congrats!

Thank you sir. It's part time for now. Hopefully that can change in the future.

Congrats! nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 Now we can do even more vibe coding! πŸ˜„

Awe yay! πŸ‘πŸ»β˜ΊοΈπŸ₯³πŸš€

woot!

Woot woot! Congrats buddy !

How exciting!! πŸŽ‰
