In war, truth is the first casualty.

Thank you for the new release.

Is there any plan for Coracle to support Markdown?

The link https://nostr.com/noteidhere does not exist for me. Am I missing something?

Is there any functional difference between https://notestr.app/ and https://snort.social/?

I mostly use https://snort.social/.

For unknown reasons, I lost data related to who I was following and the relays I choose to use.

Also I am not aware of any Nostr signer extension for browsers on mobile devices like phone and tablet.

In any Mastodon public instance, there are typically three options:

1. Explore

2. Federated timeline

3. Local timeline

I understand that for the third option, one needs to explicitly visit the specific public instance. The other two options will give almost similar results from any Mastodon public instance. So for the the first two options, it is not mandatory to visit any specific instance.

I am not aware how your personal instance is configured. The "Explore" and "Federated Timeline" usually provides reasonable opportunities to discover new people and posts. In addition, one can follow hashtags for new content.

Based on my limited use of Nostr, I observe that either the "Explore" or "Federated Timeline" or these two choices together provide the equivalent of Global timeline of Nostr.

> "... but to meet new people, and new conversations, I will still need to visit other instances... they will have to create identities everywhere first to read/write content..."

One must register an identity with a ActivityPub based Fediverse instance to publish content. However to read public content in a Fediverse instance, there is no need to create a registered identity on that instance. Also once need not visit multiple instances to meet new people and generate new conversations. It can be done from the client connected to the existing Fediverse instance. The existing instance can belong to Fediverse platforms like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica etc.

Also note Masotodon has multiple clients. Those clients may work with other Fediverse platforms. I am not sure since I have not tested those clients with other Fediverse platforms.

I have the following query:

If you only use wss://nostr-pub.wellorder.net and I do not use wss://nostr-pub.wellorder.net, does it mean that we will not be connected i.e. not see our respective messages and posts, though we may follow each other?

I thank you and nostr:npub14uc57wfq2zd0g3qh5lpvkq2svvkjl9fruzyxnz9zh95ev2japw7ql2g0sq for your ensuring efforts towards Nostrid app.

Please let me know how to save my choices of Relays (Settings -> Relays) in https://web.nostrid.app/, after I delete a few default Relays (uri), from the list of Relays, and add new ones. Every time I am seeing the default list again after making the changes.

It is working now. Thanks for your effort.

I thank you for the efforts towards nip05.social.

However, most of the times, the waiting time for receiving a 6 digit login code from bot@nip05.social is very high.

Do you have any suggestions for a reliable public relay?

In today's WhatsApp dominated digital environment attention means a lot to us.

Some deep, though provoking and sensitive observations from Simone Weil (Feb 3, 1909 - Aug 24, 1943) as mentioned in https://www.themarginalian.org/2015/08/19/simone-weil-attention-gravity-and-grace/.

- Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity.

- Attention, taken to its highest degree, is the same thing as prayer. It presupposes faith and love.

- Absolutely unmixed attention is prayer. If we turn our mind toward the good, it is impossible that little by little the whole soul will not be attracted thereto in spite of itself.

#Attention

> "I am happy because I want nothing from anyone. I do not care about money. Decorations, titles, or distinctions mean nothing to me. I do not crave praise. The only thing that gives me pleasure, apart from my work, my violin, and my sailboat, is the appreciation of my fellow workers."

~ Albert Einstein

Appreciation of fellow workers do matter. Unfortunately, this aspect has remained largely elusive in my life till now. Instead, I have been mostly assessed.

One needs to have enough endeavors and foresights, while exercising caution, to avoid dull and thankless or toxic environments both in personal and professional spheres.
