Aye, we too, have limited ram.
Whenever I push a new long complicated Polish word with tons of consonanrs into my brain, I wonder what I am also overwriting in its stead.
Didn't sign up for the March, didn't appoint Ross to centralized decisions and don't know who he is.
I meant display names, but they are best with the usernames.
I'll just add that the present setting showing both username and nip05 on notes looks good and is useful.
Many users like to add different characters to their usernames, such as βΎοΈ/21M and that's a great social customization feature.

Bitcoin is the best liberty and decentralization technlogy we have and we in the bitcoin community could provide the truckers with instant fundibg while the centrally controlled legacy systems were shut down and donors were accused of criminal behavior for supporting the liberty convoy.
Continuing on the decentralization theme:
The Canadian Freedom Convoy protest one year ago can inform us on the subject of decentralization.
That protest against government overreach was possible *because* there was a free(ish) market of sovereign human individuals making decisions based on preservation of liberties.
If all the trucking vehicles on the road had been centrally controlled AI-driven vehicles,, there would have been no ability for the Canadian people suffering under authoritarianism to display such an effective infrastructure protest against government mandated injections and restrictions.
Absolutely. These central planners overlap well with the archetype of the bureaucratic Vogon that Douglas Adams introduced in his Hitchhiker's Guide.
Whoa, well deserved, over half a bitcoin already!πππ

Impressive update pace Vitor, thanks!
As Tucker Carlson recently objected to AI vehicles on the roads and was lambasted with pejorative responses, I wanted to approach the subject from a different angle.
Centralization vs decentralization.
I think there is reason to pause a bit here.
AI-driven vehicles on the road is a systemic weakness. If they all have a bad update they may all stop or worse. Those of us who have worked in environments with automated systems have seen this over and over again.. If the systems get hacked, then what? A solar flare? Electric grid dependencies. Etc.
Human truckers form a more resilient structure; decentralized & flexible.
Let me make this very clear:
The central planning scenario IS to have government-controlled AI vehicles on the road.
The decentralized scenario is having autonomous, flexible human drivers on the road.
Let's explore this further:
Scenario A: The government becomes totalitarian and controls all AI trucker vehicles on the road.
Scenario B: The government becomes totalitarian and human sovereign truckers drive vehicles on the road.
Which is the central planning scenario here?
Which scenario have central chokepoint dependencies?
Which scenario is resilient?
The purpose of a free market is..
Liberty.
Liberty brings prosperity.
Prosperity does not necessarily bring liberty.
A centrally planned society is not a free market. A decentralized society can be a free market; it has the potential.
The question: how do we achieve a robust, decentralized society.
Under a central planning system, the markets are rigged and there is no real free market to speak of.
The dectralization point of having human workers in critical infrastructure is because they are sovereign, thinking, flexible individuals that can react rationally and individually to new problems and situations. AI can't do that.
Humans, with our diversity of outlooks, can't just be mass-programmed to perform orders via fiat decree, at least not by certain assumption. Orders have to pass a human proof-of-work, or as we may call it, a proof-of-bullshit-resilience filter; the human mind.
One of the greatest problems that humans may live to fight and solve, IS an automated, dictatorial central planning system. If we can't fight such a system, free markets have no future.
Government-controlled AI systems cannot solve that problem for us. Only sovereign humans can. Decentralized minds making local decisions based on local experience, insight and rapidly changing circumstances and new data.
Always best is to create your own sorting.
Lists does this and shows only the accounts you select; hence no algorithm.
Yup. Visibility algorithms are bad, because they can and will be manipulated for gains.
Simple: none of your f**** business.
Nostr is great, but there are no compromises on sovereign decisions.
GM, good evening here.π
It would be great to have as compact notifications as possible, with option to expand extra information:

One of my first vivid memories was climbing out of the crib. Pillow first, then escape. I've heard people say that it's not possible to remember anything at that age.
