Any idea why it is perfectly possible to message (DM & public) with iris.to and not with snort.social?

Both are independent developed?

Anyone on this 🙏?

With the disappearance of Wallet of Satoshi for US markets, now it's more important than ever to become an "Uncle Jim" for your close friends and family members. What is an Uncle Jim? Simply put, he's a person that lends a helping hand to those in need, providing a service for them, one that they cannot provide for themselves.

You can fairly easily do this if you're not afraid of getting your hands dirty by digging through the technical trenches. You'll need to run a full Bitcoin node, a Lightning node, LNBits, and Nginx. You'll also need to buy a domain name use a service such as Cloudflare,

You'll setup a Bitcoin and Lightning node as you normally would. Then, you'll need to setup LNBits and configure the LNURLp and LNDHub plugins for each wallet that you're going to host.

The hardest part of this whole setup is the local networking portion of this. You'll need to have a server or a dedicated machine to run Nginx. This is a web server. You'll need to setup this web server to act as a reverse proxy to point to your LNBits installation. In this example, you'll setup your Nginx configuration to use wallet.mydomain.com and do a reverse proxy to your LNBits installation and port number. Then, to finalize the local networking, you'll configure your router to do port forwarding to your Nginx installation.

For example: Router Port Forwarding 443 -> Nginx 443 -> LNBits 5000

Then, you'll need to create a free account on Cloudflare and point your domain that you registered to Cloudflare. You'll then need to add your home IP address and a subdomain. Maybe you'll use wallet.mydomain.com.

If all goes as planned, you should be able to connect to https://wallet.mydomain.com and view your LNBits. You now have a Zappable Lighting address user@wallet.mydomain.com.

This isn't the best guide. I wrote this very quickly after reading a Bitcoin Magazine article about being an Uncle Jim. Hopefully this gives you enough information to ask the right questions or perform some advanced Google searches. Good luck!

This article helped me alot in the time a had my own lightning node. Will setup a new one in the near future. Using this document again at that point of time.

I can assure I have no one in my filters. Goodbye #primal

Desktops are horrible. They never succeeded to make xterm.js to make display 😀 characters good except on chrome. Android is the way. Hate to say it. Google rules. No it is not solvable by quality programming. Money solves evething in developer land. Sadge but true

With all respect. They can always give a fuck.

nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm just curious, what's the reasoning behind the min 10 million sats policy for opening a channel to your node? That's a lot of sats 😄

10BTC should be minimum to join.

From what I read from https://github.com/mikedilger/gossip looks very promising indeed. Thanks for the tip man!!!

Not yet. Will look into it. Thanks.

Talking about the desktop version of the clients. All mobile Nostr clients working fine. All of them. Only desktop is crap.

*purple*. Damn autocorrect. Were are the times of dumb editors. Those are the good ones.. Hooray to vim

Sad your posted note is not visible or clickable under primal or snort. Only Amethyst display its contents.

I must confess I had a pretty fat Umbrel lightning node running on a very old gaming laptop in the past, which made a lot of noise and power consumption and had nearly the same specs. Because here in Malta there are unfortunately too much power outages and my UPS could not handle it anymore I stopped with it due too many force closures.

I think I will gradually built another node with this device again. Looking forward to it 🙏
