Design Thinker by day, Nostrich by night 🤙 From pedestrian to pilot: #LearningToFly 👨‍✈️✈️ German translations for Damus. Relay operator at.nostrworks.com

I understand the issue but have a different view...

Disclaimer: I operate a paid relay, so my views might be biased.

In the last 20 years it was so common not to pay with money on the internet for most things because you paid with your data. Maybe Nostr is about to change this. I am looking forward to it!

I am currently writing a guide for Nostr newcomers and I think I will propose to add a paid relay from the beginning. Currently it's only between 0,20-1 USD/EUR one-time-charge so it shouldn't be a big issue.

But for those, that choose not to use a paid relay, spam might still be an issue. Maybe clients should turn global off for those?

In the long run: How do you think should free relays earn money to pay for the costs AND have world-class spam detection?

Eine unglaubliche Entwicklung und Ungerechtigkeit, die aber die meisten Menschen nicht einmal wahrnehmen. Aber es gibt Wege dem Diktat der ewigen Produktivitätssteigerung zu entkommen. Ich habe das beispielsweise durch meine Selbstständigkeit geschafft. Als Selbstständiger gilt nicht mehr der unbedingte Grundsatz Zeit=Geld, sondern meistens Nutzen=Geld, das lindert das Problem etwas, aber das Fiat-Problem bleibt natürlich.

Kind 10002 is it! 🤙

Awesome, I wish I‘d be there, but planning and thinking took me too long, now no seat is left! 😩 Online to the rescue!

Btw: Yoga is great! Will it be online too? 🧘

Just had an intense discussion about some Damus translations (to German) with #[1] & #[2]. I was not aware how complicated language can be.

BTW, this is a test note, because our translation was actually about the string "someone reacted to a post you were tagged in". So could someone react to this post, please? Thank you!

Premature optimization is the root of all evil. Fail fast & optimise, when it is necessary, not earlier. We are not there, not yet!

Will zapping lightning wallet provider will be offline again, as soon as #[0] pushes a new

#[1] release? Accepting bets! The odds are agaist WoS... 😂

I suppose I should not count this as an actual endorsement of the issue, should I? 😇

Damus account deletion seems to cause confusion to some. I checked what it actually does and think, there might be ways to improve on this feature. The most simple would be to just describe better what is actually happening when you type this frightening "DELETE" word. 😱

But there is more...

What do you think? #[0]

I suppose VPNs are used to fraud people. In this specific case I think it is okay, since it is a platform for trade with potentially bad actors.

Strongly disagree! Have you ever spoken to somebody from Ukraine? I have, because I live 1000km from the border and helped families with their children to flee after Russian full-scale invasion.

People protested on Maidan because they want to be free. And the EU seems to offer them more freedom than a Russian imperialist who wants to destroy their language and independent culture. Isn’t that a good reason to protest?
