i just got the bluesky invite 10 mins ago ironically. Been waiting for it since the first time i heard abt it yrs go but out of principle, i'll join when everyone gets to join. Also, its gonna be both enabling the federated servers, and encouraging multiple client and use case adoption. Market adoption of the at-protocol is what would make a difference.

I spoil every ballot with my #bitcoin stamp.

We didn't really elect Sunak.

But here you are on NOSTR!

I write the principles I want to live by on a regular basis. They’ve remained fairly consistent over the years.

1. Everything is connected.

Therefore, I want to be mindful that every action I take will eventually come back to me.

2. Everyone knows everything, eventually.

Therefore, I want to be sure I act with transparency with a desire to be fair.

3. I know nothing.

Therefore, I want to be curious and always seek to listen and learn.

I fail at some of these regularly. But it’s been important to come back to them and validate my actions and consider ways to improve.

Amen re: open mind and the universe

Lol it’s a simple one:

It was holidays 2022 and people on Twitter were posting ostriches. I was like “what the -“ found Wills acct, read jacks tweets, and jumped in! 💜Love me some innovation.

Wide awake. I think I’ll 📜 through the Careers page at Block again and see if any other positions may be a match 💞 #AllIn

Doing the lords work

Going on Bluesky I find myself only interacting with Nostr peeps.

Most of the “what’s hot” posts on there a fiat cringe

Catching up on today's Nostr drama (which I find entertaining)

Why is this Seth dude so bent out of shape about what Coinkite does? A 20 page thread about what another company is doing? 🤣

People will buy the products they wanna buy. My only gripe with Coinkite is how expensive their stuff is... But I want it.

Many thanks to my dear friend Senator Indira Kempis for arranging the activities and meetings at the Mexican Senate. #Bitcoin adoption is coming! ❤️🇲🇽

the real scam is bitcoin idolatry

I mean if people call technology worship a cult or a religion then every human on the planet who has a phone on them qualifies.

Damus’ goal from day one has always been to give individuals complete control over the types of interactions they want to have. Algorithms, users, and advertisers do not have authority over individual preferences.

If a user doesn’t want to receive zaps, they can not add a lightning address to their profile. Now if they don’t want to receive likes, they can turn them off.

In the future users will also be able to turn off replies unless they are subject to certain conditions, such as if they are friends or only zap comments.

If you don’t like users who use these features, you don’t have to follow them. I still think you should try to respect users preferences even if you disagree with them. Just my 2 sats ✌️
