Been really cleaning up a lot of online data cleansing and it’s been a lot of work.

Really making this month all about improving my privacy… but it feels pointless at times.

My biggest discoveries…

☠️ Most popular mobile Bitcoin wallets run Google Services Framework and Firebase in the background… TERRIBLE for privacy. (Bitcoin has a privacy problem)

☠️ Many popular Nostr platforms also run with GSF and Firebase.

☠️ iOS is pretty awful when it comes to data privacy despite it trying for end to end encryption… and MacOS has spyware built-in to its native software apps as such as Finder (thanks Little Snitch).

☠️ The industry standard apps that we need to use for our clients are essentially data honeypots…

☠️ All of our industry and the project management systems use are all Google based.

☠️ Even though I run GrapheneOS and an air gapped laptop, use chat systems like SimpleX… my friends and family don’t and refuse too.

So while I’m doing what I can to improve and harden my own personal data, my industry and personal relationships couldn’t care less.

Being private makes you the odd one out… ironic.

Obtaining privacy is definitely challenging in a world that doesn’t seem to really care or value it.

The struggle continues...

Acquired a pixel.

Which one you bought?

I have to decide between 5 vor 5a.

Any recommendations?

First Amethyst post.

Why don't more apps enable multiple accounts at once!? On iOS I had to have multiple apps for multiple accounts. Now I can just learn one UI/UX. And so far this UI/UX is pretty slick. Lots of bells and whistles to work with.

Might do a series

How are y'alls sticker collections coming?

Fuckin nailed it

Sometimes I pick my nose and put a huge booger right at the edge of my nostril and walk around bitcoin events.

If you don’t tell me about it, i instantly don’t like you.

U gotta be there for a brother, even in hard times.

If you gave someone a generous wedding gift and they get divorced and remarried within two years...

Is your second gift just as generous? 🤔

Asking for myself who is going to a wedding today and feeling kind of cheap

I use `lndpytools` to get messages on my LND node but it isn't very user friendly and I cannot respond. What is a good way to send and receive messages through my LND node?
