Exactly. Which is why it is terrible.
Worse thing is, few people are aware. They may also think they are bulletproof on Nostr - which they are not
I know of a multi-million dollar Enterprise software company who did exactly that, and shipped a maintenance release which only restarted the process regularly under the hood
Of course you couldn't find any of that in the release notes.

It's been well-known for a long time for those willing to listen. Great that Alex is bringing this to a wider audience
Are we sure it's a great good idea to have our group chats essentially public?

Besides, Cashu is Lightning-only, not on-chain.
Cashu is layer 3 (don't tell Calle), as it settles to layer 2 - Lightning. Doesn't matter it the settlement requires cooperation of a third party or not.
Fedimint imho is Layer 2, since it natively settles to Layer 1 (on-chain Bitcoin)
It's a push system. Just DM him the e-Cash token.
For faster and more reliable self sovereign zaps the LNaddress + Zap server can be set to communicate with the backing node over a VPN like Tailscale.
Updated this 5 minute guide with the option: https://github.com/openoms/bitcoin-tutorials/blob/master/nostr/ligess.md
Too bad ligess doesn't sopport #CLN Core-Lightning yet 😐
Sounds like a perfect AI job. Point it to the repo, and tell it "Refactor this in
GPT3 probably won't do, but anyone with GPT4 access (not me) might have this sorted in no time.
that wasn't the problem; I actually waited some 10+ minutes. I selected a funding source in the "ActiveFunding source" picker, which hadn't been configured in the below section yet.
User error, but ideally this shouldn't be possible in the first place
Ah, stupid me. I just changed the ActiveFunding in the dropdown; but it obviously needs to be configured in the list below first...
Would be good if you could only select active funding sources which are also configured. ;)
Brilliant - thanks! Getting a 503 - Service temporarily unavailable though after changing the funding source (ot CLN) and restarting the server.
Shell access? 👀
Hmm, after changing the funding source (CLN), the server doesnt come up anymore. 503 - Service Temporarily unavailable.
Bug? or is it not possible to change the funding source as of yet?
Did you know, you can now spin up your own @lnbits
instance paid in sats per hr on http://lnbits.com !!?? 🤯
Currently a BETA service, only use for testing!
Wow - nice! Can you configure your own LN backend (funding source), or is everyone sharing the Lnbits LND node?
What a fucking great movie!
This is exactly how I picture it would sound. Virtually all the popular music of the past decade is 95% the same
I think you stand little to win here. Don't think any person from one side works even consider the other side. You will spend a lot of reputational capital, but I'm afraid your comparison will not really lead to an aggregate of more genuine insight amongst the population of Bitcoiners, sadly. Not your fault, just the sad state of things.

This is actually what screws the hell out of me: a permanent public record of everything you said, liked, interacted with and more.

Yes. This is what they eventually are after: de-anonymize you. Or rather: everyone on the internet.
They will start scraping data from all major relays, and/or run honeypot relays.
When posting on Nostr a VPN is a must. Still, it only takes one fuckup to doxx you (forever)
