I was thinking of how centralizing that could be for the protocol, then re-listened to a section about it in Bitcoin Review 039 w/ Miljan and I'm not so worried anymore.
Now I'm wondering how that compares to Bluesky's AT protocol, of which I remember having something similar, a caching server of sorts.
I wonder how many nostr clients are using caching services. Primal is so far ahead in speed and note delivery reliability it's not even funny.
Regarding the Twitter/X shit show: we live in the most interesting timeline. In a different reality Twitter just died a boring death, a zombie getting experimented on is far more exciting to watch.
Some of the unhinged replies here on Nostr are just pure gold, can't find that anywhere else.
"anything to leave the other place" except moving to an actual solution like Nostr 🤡
The average Joe deserves whatever is coming for them.
Isn't Meta censorship even worst than Twitter's? People are going to Threads with a fomo hype blinder like cattle to a slaughterhouse.
If you think Twitter is a cesspool of snowflakes raging, you should check out the Fediverse global feed.
Searched #nostr on the Fediverse, a lot of coping.
Very interesting blog post, perhaps Nostr could learn a thing or two from Fediverse's failures. Hilarious edit by the end of the post. https://blog.bloonface.com/2023/06/12/why-did-the-twittermigration-fail/?utm_source=tldrnewsletter
Revisited the Fediverse today through Mastodon and Calckey, the latter being a fork of sorts of Misskey. Beautiful UI, I wonder if someone could fork into a Nostr client.
My bed time ritual every night is to check out the nostr:npub19mduaf5569jx9xz555jcx3v06mvktvtpu0zgk47n4lcpjsz43zzqhj6vzk report. Without a fail.
Although I didn't post for a while, I'm on Nostr every single day.
Any nostr:npub1plstrz6dhu8q4fq0e4rjpxe2fxe5x87y2w6xpm70gh9qh5tt66kqkgkx8j users having issues with your feed not refreshing? I decided to try it for a bit today and the only way my feed refreshes is if I clear cache, kill the app, and reopen. Manually pulling down to refresh isn’t working. 🤷♂️
No issues on my end, Android beta latest version 🤙🏼
Burak podcasts overdose. Feeling good.
Silent DMs, FROST for key management.. Nostr's future looking bright.

“Scaling and anonymizing Bitcoin at layer 1 with client-side validation” - our new proposal, also sent to bitcoin-dev mail list.
https://github.com/LNP-BP/layer1
“We propose a way to upgrade Bitcoin layer 1 (blockchain/timechain) without a required softfork. The upgrade leverages properties of client-side validation, can be gradual, has a permissionless deployment option (i.e. not requiring majority support or miner cooperation) and will have the scalability sufficient to host billions of transactions per second. It also offers higher privacy (absence of publically available ledger, transaction graphs, addresses, keys, signatures) and bounded Turing-complete programmability with a rich state provided by RGB or another client-side-validated smart contract system.”
nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpev a guy's read/take on this would be awesome, plus a interview about it with Maxim
