On Mastodong the admin controls which custom emojis you can use. On Nostr users can add and use any custom emoji packs they want, and carry them across apps.

I wrote a blog post about Nostr and Bluesky: https://habla.news/u/alex@gleasonator.dev/bluesky-vs-nostr
I specifically don't do a lot of things like that in Ditto because of the protocol bloat argument. Also what if I want to write a post with bech32 displayed in plaintext? ​
Kind 1 content format sucks. The only thing that would make it better is to expand/unify the imeta concept into "facets".

Looks good for Nostr, maybe, but what's the advantage over async generators + streams? It seems wrong there's no ReadableStream you can get from this.
Dude, me too. I only started this social network stuff because my accounts were getting banned while trying to promote my game. https://voadi.com/
What client is putting naddr in the text with no nostr URI? nostr:nprofile1qydhwumn8ghj7emvv4shxmmwv96x7u3wv3jhvtmjv4kxz7gqyqt48rwz5cnkn5y5g0cccd7tudv04ddmlxq3wd2z4f79lut3a4mugslsfzj

I still have this thought.

They're cheering for the ability to just see posts in threads.
I asked ChatGPT to write a toned-down, PG version of the Navy Seals copypasta. Then I asked it to translate it into Japanese. Then I asked it to translate it back into English, but to maintain its distinctive Japanese voice.
"Oi, listen well, boy."
Did you really think you could just wander in here, type some nonsense, and walk away as if nothing happened? Foolish. You have no idea who you are dealing with. I am a man who has spent years—no, decades—refining my skills through relentless discipline, training, and sheer determination.
You think this is just some trivial internet squabble? How unfortunate. That miscalculation will be your downfall. I have been forged to handle situations far beyond anything your imagination could conjure.
I graduated top of my class in strategic warfare. I have been involved in countless high-risk operations. Advanced problem-solving skills? Impeccable.
The ability to perform under pressure? Unrivaled.
You may believe your words are nothing more than harmless pixels on a screen, but to me, they are misguided, reckless… and to be blunt, utterly embarrassing.
I have access to resources, networks, and knowledge beyond your comprehension. For years, I have honed my craft, adapting to every challenge thrown my way.
And you? You waltzed in here, actually believing you could stand on equal footing with me? How adorable.
But listen carefully—while you are fumbling with checkers, I am commanding a grandmaster-level game of chess.
So before you dare to type another word, take a deep breath. Think long and hard about the battlefield you are stepping onto.
This is not some meaningless exchange of words.
This is a battlefield where every move carries weight, and every decision has consequences.
And finally, let me leave you with this—
You are completely, hopelessly… out of your league.
Alright, listen up, champ. You think you can just stroll in here, type out that nonsense, and walk away without a second thought? Think again. You’re dealing with someone who has spent years honing their skills—years of discipline, training, and relentless dedication. You might think this is just another online spat, but let me assure you, I am built for situations far beyond anything you could imagine.
I graduated top of my class in advanced strategy. I’ve been involved in countless high-stakes operations, and I have more hands-on experience in high-level problem-solving than most people will see in a lifetime. My analytical skills? Sharpened to perfection. My ability to react under pressure? Second to none. You may think your words are just harmless pixels on a screen, but I see them for what they are—misguided, reckless, and, frankly, embarrassing.
I have access to resources, networks, and knowledge that you wouldn’t even believe existed. I’ve spent years mastering my craft, adapting to every challenge thrown my way. And you? You just waltzed in here thinking you could hold your own against me? That’s adorable. But here’s the thing—you’re playing checkers while I’m out here running a grandmaster-level game of chess.
So before you even think about responding, take a deep breath. Think long and hard about what you’re stepping into. Because this? This isn’t just another casual back-and-forth. You’ve entered an arena where every move matters, where every decision has weight. And trust me, friend—you’re out of your league.
