Not even sure I'd be on nostr without watching the reasonTV episode with Will and NVK.

Btw, I will NOT pay money to use any client to use Nostr. Screw that! Good luck finding source of funding!

I'm gonna get a job at Aldi and make sure all my fellow nightshift shelf stackers use a nostr community to swap shifts and bitch about the line manager.

It would be so much fun if we had nostr devs working behind frenemy lines

Either way thank you. And I'm sure you'll be highly successful in whatever you choose to do next.

Extremely grateful you created Damus, we wouldn't be here without it. 🫂

You played an enormous part. 0 to banned in China in 60 days 🤣. You write great software (and fast). You are brilliant and generous but you are terrible at incentives. You have disincentivized the birth of relay businesses by giving arguably one of the best relays away for free. This is bad. As your bank account proves, great relays aren’t free!

Turn the Damus relay off IMMEDIATELY (or please stamp an industry leading premium entry fee on it). High volume relays are a huge money sink. If Damus client doesn’t work well without it, then you know what to work on: making Damus client great without subsidizing the traffic.

Just adding to your comment: There are a long list of people working on Damus, of which I believe Will and Daniel are full time. That’s a lot of work to fund all by itself.

And yes, Damus relay undoubtedly costs some decent $$ with the volume of posts going through it.

Will likes to eat and live in a house. Infrastructure isn't all that much. It's more about spending 80 hours a week working on Damus and not having another job to pay the bills.

It would've been really funny if Bluesky hired Will. Imagine all the whining. I would be on there all the time.

I came to suggest this so I'm seconding ol' Corndy here.

If something bad happens in the western world, there is some sort of "cyberattack" or violence, & China, Iran, or N. Korea get blamed, the real perpetrator was probably the US working with other western govts. The US is in an election year that is making some of the worst criminals in the world very desperate. It's important not to underestimate what they might do.

Since 2020, my litmus test is “tell me how vaccination works.”

Yeah same, but I feel a certain completionist need to watch it.

Former Miss Bolivia arrested on gun trafficking charges 🤯

Have you seen it?

Do I subject myself the the latest Indiana Jones?

Part of me hopes there is at least some fun to be had in it(?) #asknostr

not sure how i feel about new years resolutions

don't really work goal-based necessarily, as i'd rather have systems in place and be an eternal student that way
