I like Snort. I don't remember why I wound up using Iris, but it's growing on me.
What's up, Xanny. Migrated finally, eh?
A film was financed with an NFT, on Ethereum, of course. The founder asked me if I wanted to mint an NFT. He's made a TON of money, and while the "credit" is cool... it's a terrible financial instrument/investment. I told em' I didn't think it was a great investment, but he should be proud for pioneering the project.
Who the fuck do these people think they are? It's like... HELLO?
Shit. Sorry, mate. Haha
Looks like there’s contagion from Silvergate to Credit Suisse and SVB. This is going to be a rocky ride. SVB is the 16th largest bank, but in particular the one preferred by venture backed startups.
SVB’s issuing new stock at terrible terms for the company: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/719739/000119312523064680/d430920dex992.htm

I guess Signature Bank is on shaky footing, too. It's definitely going to be a rocky ride.
It's built into the protocol, and frankly, a somewhat inherit part of how most social networks work. You have to know an address for the sender for it to get there, if that is encrypted, than no one will know where their message is (unless every client is attempting to decrypt metadata for *every* message ever sent).
However, Signal has taken some exotic steps to reduce their ability to see those messages, namely leveraging enclave tech like SGX: https://signal.org/blog/building-faster-oram/
There are ways to obfuscate the identity of the sender/receiver, but that metadata still must be present unencrypted to allows messaging protocols to work. Maybe there's some crazy way to do it with quantum tech, but we're still a ways from that :D
I was under the impression that he was referring to more than metadata, but he wasn't. Either way... thank you.

Anyone have the juice on IRL meets in London for people us?
So last year switter shutdown because of anti-free speech laws in Australia. It had over 430,000 users. What would switter’s users and use case look like on nostr?
A sex worker relay or network of relays? A media server?

Network of relays seems steep to me. Wouldn’t they just jumó in where they fit in?
For some reason I have an issue with uniquely dedicated special interest ANYTHING. Let them live, but live amongst us.
I feel like Damus is a buttoned up ex-hippie working as an Art Director… Iris is the wild child, IMO. Haha
Sometimes I’m a fucking monster to the woman that loves me most and I can’t control it
Are we thinking the legacy trend line breakthrough is meaningful this cycle or what?
Wrong about notifications on Iris. Sorry. I was hangry.
I’ve been using Domus on mobile and Iris on desktop… and damnit, Iris is basically not useable. It’s so slow. It hardly updates. I have no ability to check my “happenings” or whatever.
Iris developers - we need a "notifications" tab or something. We have no way of knowing if we've been followed, someone left a reply on a note, or we've been zapped.
Am I missing something?
