gm nostr ☕️ 
My favorite gadget. Good design & good engineering. 
Presented without comment, because none is necessary. nostr:note17yfuwtg9qq8sqe9tvxaxutvdtm4eay978umf3v7ecj3sy9mn4dvsjy0x7w
Very hyped for Swift macros!
Damus is feeling much smoother these days. Great job nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s and contributors
No date?
nostr-kit data structures are always smaller in memory than their serialized JSON representations.
this means that data flowing off the parser is smaller than when it arrived on the network.
just because nostr is a string-based info scheme doesn’t mean our libraries should be.
nostr-kit is getting a major push to operate entirely on protocols instead of discrete types.
this is a major flex. It will allow developers to parse nostr events directly to their desired Type and structure without additional parsing overhead or modifications to the library.

Rapid firing releases of nostr-kit
This networking engine absolutely smokes
First post using my nostr-kit cross platform network library, and the nostr client CLI that comes with it! Time to get this tech back into topaz and ship!
Yes v1.5 (8) TestFlight
Happens when I load the timeline from cold launch or idle state. Pretty reliable, doesn’t seem to be behavior tied to any single piece of content.
Damus is the only app capable of dropping my iPhones UI rendering frame rate below 1 Hz. Absolutely, remarkably bad.
People love to bitch and moan about nostr websockets but frankly I think websockets are way better than HTTP and make a lot of sense for most applications.
SwiftNIO is such a fantastic library
I used to think that burning alive was the worst way to go out.
Now I realize, the worst way to go out is paying $250,000 to die in this tube over 96 hours with 4 other people at the bottom of the ocean. 
As a kid that grew up entirely in Colorado…having visited Casa Bonita multiple times in my childhood (and also a massive South Park fan), I absolutely love this story.
