DB nuked, writes only enabled to my pubkey now so I can use it as an archival relay.
Okay, seems like my NIP-05 only free relay now contains questionable Japanese CP adjacent content. I'm taking it down, nuking it, and only keeping the paid relay...

[CW: Death]
Sorry for the graphic content, but I'm posting in the interest of raining awareness towards the Israeli warcrimes in Gaza and the wider region.
Sha'ban is one of tens of thousands of souls lost to Israel's deliberate barbaric targeting of civilians. His mother died with him in that tent. The US war machine is responsible for arming and financing the Israeli regime.

Depends. Personal spending node? Pretty much braindead easy.
Routing node?
It is still a pain the ass. You can certainly make it profitable - until you get absolutely wrecked by FCs and other bugs.
I had mine dialed in and routing lots of volume, generating decent profit, at the cost of more or less daily monitoring and channel management. It's a part time job.
Then the november/december fee spikes happened and FCs around that time cost me around a million sats.
I mean, this is how Fedora/GNOME (idk about the spins) already behaves in addition to a small warning message confirming you intend to run an executable.
Yeah, you can settle onchain. Depends on if their node exists or not. It'll either be a cooperative close or a force close (expect a timelock)
Every time I check any form of social media I get an instant mood debuff...
I wish I could just have the discipline to stay offline..
I thought this was a meme/fake
But nope, it's real

What the fuck...?
But you're making that reaction without letting the person performing the report know...
This. It boils down to the client doing something automatically without me authorizing it. When I report content, I expect to send a report. Not a report + a preset reaction.
Very odd resistance towards removing this clearly unwanted behavior but it's his software and he has the final say.. doesn't mean I like it.
Second wave of Swan Bitcoin scam emails out, warn your less technically savvy buddies.
hey everyone that uses Amethyst, you should be aware that the app sends a reaction note (โ ๏ธ) when you report another note as spam, the same way as if you reacted with ๐ or ๐ or ๐ค or ๐คฎ. the dev thinks it's the same thing and doesn't want to change this behaviour that only his client does, so when other clients ask for the notes you reacted to, they get the spam notes you were trying to get rid off, effectively spreading them to your audience. Is this the behaviour you expect when reporting?

Actually from a quick test it looks like they don't even wait for a confirmation(?). My Aqua LN swap took less than 10 seconds.
Fair enough. The minimum time for the payment is ~1/2mins since Liquid blocks are generated every minute and whatever Boltz takes to find a route.
I'm not sure what the timeout is but I can't imagine it being very long, so probably not getting into hours.
The downsides of swaps vs native LN... but comes with no inbound liquidity, FCs, and channel management nonsense + being fully insulated from onchain fee spikes ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Anyone know an effective Amethyst filter to block those useless reply bots?
On that matter; nostr:nprofile1qqswe03hyye2jv3msylwkj8cml8d4m9qpc5g0tccrvrrcm86z0kcaggpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgtc9xqxg6 y'all should add more boltz swap providers like https://swap.diamondhands.technology/ and compare rates, go with cheapest, or randomly if the same fee for better censorship resistance and reliability :)
That is odd, the fee for that should be a predictable and reproduceable 14ish sats per liquid utxo in the tx and boltz fee being 1 sat + routing fee from Boltz->Alby ๐ค
Whatโs the deal with nostr:npub1ajlrwgfj4yerhqf7ady03h7wmtk2qr3gs7h3sxcx83k05yld36sswpzx3q and why does anyone like it?
Iโve personally seen two people in the past month attempt to pay a Lightning invoice with it and it failed both times. The worst part was it said the payment had completed on the senderโs side but the recipient never got paid. After the invoice expires, the sender eventually gets notified and the sats are returned to their wallet, but it can take 24 hours. Meanwhile, the merchant either loses a sale or the customer has to pay using another method while waiting for their automatic refund.
This is a frustrating experience both for retail customers and merchants, and itโs things like this that are going to kill Lightning adoption.
It uses Boltz Liquid<->LN swaps. It's essentially Muun except there is no unpredictable fee issues and/or subsidizing for turbo channels by being Liquid-first.
I think most issues will be around tiny LN payments not suitable for a Boltz swap or Boltz being unable to find a route to the receiver and this only being apparent to the sender (Aqua) after a while..
