working on getalby.com - a browser extension with lightning and Nostr support

Hey nostrasia, can someone add me to the telegram group? thanks!!

Hello Tokyo!

hmm, how to fix this...?

We're not actively blocking VPNs or anything else. We protect against spam and malicious requests. If there have been too many malicious requests from IPs and datacenters (e.g. for scrapers and such) then those get blocked.

If you don't tell me what "nein" means in terms of error I am sadly not able to help you at this point.

we have a firewall when we see malicious spam requests or DDoS. It might be that you run into a false positive. Do you know the ASN of your exit IP and which error do you exactly get?

niicceee.. I want some of these, too!! :)

what are your plans after Nostrasia? who is in the area for a while?

can someone zap me. I need to test something. 🤘<3

spam and impersonation is increasing on nostr recently… :/

ok, those are failed payments. Zeus does not show it as failed. In Alby we do not show those.

I am not sure if we maybe should not return those in that API call. 🤔

But if the preimage is not there the payment failed and an error had happened.

Any idea why these transactions are appearing twice in Zeus? These were zaps sent from Nostur using NWC. I sent 2 zaps, which is all that’s shown in my Alby account. But Zeus lists each one twice.

hmm, strange. those are the only two?

does it persist across zeus restarts?

Is Yanis on Nostr? https://twitter.com/PoliticsJOE_UK/status/1710222471394181357

I probably disagree with him on everything state related, but he should be on Nostr when he talks about big tech and identity like that.

nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm you mentioned a few weeks ago that the getalby extension requires no alby account and no email to use nostr features. However, when I am trying it I only see these two options when I start the extension the first time. One is alby email login, the other is to add a node.

I'm guessing if I added a node then I'd be able to use nostr features. It'd be nice if I could *just use the signing extension for nostr.

yes, you can use any other wallet, no Alby account is required... but some lightning wallet is required at this point.

We had this topic already several times and are discussing this.

but a wallet in combination with they nostr key is just a perfect match.

we can do that.

In the subscription case for example I think this will be handled by wallets. Not the recipient manages the subscription and pulls money (what happens with card payments)

but the sender’s wallet manages the subscription and auto pushes money.

These are things we plan with Alby. zapplanner is for example an early experiment of that.

but I also believe in other business models that become possible because we can automate p2p payments.

I've just replied to your message. (sorry it was night time here). Thanks again for reaching out, this helps us to get better.

You should be good but, but as we optimize for lightning on the web payments (e.g. zaps here) rebalancing nodes is a bit of an issue for us and you might run into this again depending on activity.

let me know if it works for you! thanks
