What is security without freedom? Security should enable you to practice your freedom, otherwise security is not security, it is enslavement. "Secure as long as..."

#Asknostr

Can somebody break down and explain what this is and why it is useful? 🙏

Reverse uno. Used to be hard for bitcoin to get any traction anywhere else. Those people who would come in ans shut us down are still out there. When they come, the space will become more diverse. They will need to push the envelope themselves the way we did on reddit, twitter and other platforms as we carved our our own communities within the platforms we wanted to use, they will need to build their communities here in a peaceful way.

Oh, it works for videos too.

I think one problem we have today is "lack of transparency" around how content creators are paid... Considering platforms are their boss, not users.

With nostr, we are the boss. But the thing is that we are so used to "free" content with ads (or ad blockers) that we have no idea what content is actually worth.

I think zaps and contributions should be more formalised, but in an open and voluntary way to be clear. Content creators can suggest a value, viewers can zap what they like, and together we all recreate a fair market.

I'm thinking more about video content providers and not memers, but why should any feature be limited to any category of a person?

Why is everything breaking?!

Yes. Because they are not "your" bitcoins, they are bitcoins and I will make you share them with me even if it means starting multiple businesses to convince you to do it.

All your unit biases are destroyed!

1¢ buys ~10 sats.

$1 buys ~1000sats

Considering where Bitcoin came from only ~15 years ago, where 1BTC was < 1¢, We're not far from 1sat = 1¢. (And beyond 🚀)

Do you explain the official and widely accepted reasons?

Each type of tax has a story behind it and this is what keeps the uncurious and the only slightly curious satisfied. It also gives them ammo to turn others if they aren't prepared with the knowledge beforehand.

Maybe later on, but it's important to know the backstories as a defense mechanism to not get blindsighted.

DMs are a bit of a hot mess on #Nostr right now.

The existing community have just rolled with it, but also there is a much better and more private solution coming that hopefully all clients will adopt when it is tried and tested.

DMs in any other platform are typically private between you, them and THE PLATFORM. Even if the messages are end to end encrypted, metadata like who is talking to who, how often, at what times, are not private.

There is no platform on Nostr, but DMs are end to end encrypted. The bad news is that THE PLATFORM is replaced with THE PUBLIC. So Nostr needs to be better and this is driving innovation and development.

Right now, DMs are not safe for everyone, they aren't super private, but this will be solved, it just takes time. In the meantime, I recommend using chat apps like Signal and SimpleX until we get there and your client adopts the new standard.

I think it's called MLS.

If you run your own relay, then nothing really affects you from a relay perspective because you can force your server to be "blind" to it.

That said, every client also has a brain and this is where the real muscle is.

If I see you have a flag, my client will receive the content but can warn me. For example #Amethyst will blur NSFW posts but offer for me to reveal them.

Clients can also make a decision based on proximity: if there are reports of scam, but none of them are from your followers, or your followers' followers, then your client can choose to ignore the flag.

This is the nature of decentralised decision making, almost anything is possible. What is important is that if you are being unfairly silenced, your data is still available, you just need to work on finding or building the appropriate client(s) and relays and getting your audience to adopt them and you're back without having to lose your historical posts etc.

Same, plus hitting the gym so it'll fit me eventually.

Just finished watching The Penguin.

Curious what others think, I might have a contrarian opinion, but I thought it was good, but nothing crazy.

Well, except that Colin Farrel was the lead actor... I didn't know that, but in hindsight, that's cool.

I just didn't really feel he was The Penguin, more like, a pretty cunning gangster.

Is this a bot?

Every post has a bunch of hashtags and a link to a simplex chat... Seems sus

You could filter out some of their characters, not sure that's the best approach but... 🤷‍♂️

Too early. 🙄

Thanks for the zap! ❤️

I'll call on the masters. I hit a brick wall.
