This WOS point of sale mode is a massive update - hopefully will allow more easy onboarding of vendors or peer to peer sales! #[0]​ SO COOL

Why does my list of relays constantly change? I've paid for and added a bunch of custom relays, I get like 18 connections, but then come back the next day and its all undone, and I'm connected to like 4... and I have to MANUALLY put all the relays back in.

I gotta say, for something I custom configured that's incredibly frustrating, and moving the list and adding them manually is not a fun experience... especially having to do it over and over again.

I think I got it set up now? 🤔🙏😂💗🌸

Just because all Europeans are obsessed with riveting 0-0 ties doesn't make it any less boring.

1. How does Nostr user experience compare with Twitter?

It’s both at parity and far more advanced. Zaps are far more advanced and a leapfrogging. As is logging in with a key pair. As is autopilot relay model in some clients.

2. What client(s) do you use?

Primarily Damus for iOS, gossip for desktop, and a variety of web clients (snort and coracle).

3. From what I’ve seen, current user base is highly concentrated among Bitcoiners. Thoughts on implications this has for user experience and network growth?

Bitcoiners tend to be pretty principled and focused on building tools to enable more self sovereignty, so I think it will turn out very well for individuals. But like Twitter, I think there are many other niches you aren’t seeing yet because you aren’t on those relays.

4. What do you think of Twitter blocking Substack links?

I don’t believe Twitter should block any links. Is this true?

5. Is Block building on/for NOSTR?

Yes.

Thanks, Jack. I appreciate this. I expect I’ll write up this interview Monday.

May come back to you with more Qs in the future when I’ve gone deeper on NOSTR

Have a great weekend!

For anyone else reading this —would appreciate your thoughts on NOSTR’s development and the evolution of the internet

It’s happening

nostr is original web

Not the first… certainly not the last!

#[0]​ , please could you help me by giving Brian Armstrong a nudge?

It’s not a shitcoin thing unless it’s used for shitcoins - on Bitcoin it’s a way to do sidechains.

Presumably if you’re using rollups on Bitcoin it’s to do something with the monetary use case, where you’d want trustlessness.
