Anyone know of a relay + client full stack app written in Elm?!

Logged out, back in, re-fetched Grapevine listeners and re-calculated all and it works now!

The first time through I had left one of the listeners on, and when I did the calculations they took a long time and I refreshed a few times. maybe I corrupted the database.

I know you've got a ton you're working on, but something to toss on the TODO heap for (much) later would be stronger guardrails during onboarding so new visitors don't shoot themselves in the foot like I did :)

Thanks again!

How does this influence your approach, if at all? I've been researching these topics for a while and you have me convinced that Grapevine is a solid off-the-shelf solution.

For me, you can go to https://brainSToRm.ninja and see my initial implementation of what I am calling the Influence Score, which is an alternative to the standard WoT score which is the state of the art on nostr. I have not yet implemented contextual influence scores, but that’s coming up soon on my roadmap and that’s where I expect its rationale to become apparent.

This guy!

Are your relay lists on both clients identical?

(Man we really need personal proxy relays)

What's a good source to learn more about proxy relays? I'm trying to determine if my plan is feasible:

- users run their own proxy relays.

- their clients connect to their single proxy relay

- their proxy relay connects to other users' proxy relays

-- when "following" a user, your proxy relay is instructed to connect to that user's proxy relay, if it exists. Opposite for "unfollowing"

It's the last bit that I think may be the hard part.

For the context of this question, assume all Nostr users have an always-on personal server that runs their relay.

What does it mean if I'm getting `NaN`s and blanks in rows (and no actual values in any) for Influence Score? I've computed all the required values in the Grapevine settings.

Yes absolutely. That's how it is today and how it will remain forever. We are cypherpunks to the root.

Our OS is open source and freely extendible by anyone. If someone _else_ builds some walled garden shitcoin hell on our tech, I wish them well and anyone interested can jump it. For the darknet pirate anon-maxi, they'll be able to do whatever they want without their hands tied or their identity exposed or KYC'd.

Yea Urbit had a lot of problems. Most of the major ones were technical but it also had some.. I'll say "alignment/impetus" issues and leave it at that.

We built on Urbit for a while and pivoted to a new stack that we are more involved with core development on. We plan to fix many of the things urbit got wrong (and keep the good stuff!)

I didn't know you were on Urbit. Did we already talk about this? What was your @p? I'm ~sogrum-savluc, I worked at Quartus. You might have used Gora or another of our apps :)

I don't blame them for being skeptical of tokens! They probably should be most of the time. Anything https://vaporware.network does with crypto/tokens will be strictly optional. We're building a new kind of purely functional open source OS
