What advantage would that have for the average non-technical user to show the cryptography and json?

Wouldn’t an on-off switch in settings be a good solution?

Though I do believe relays are pretty user friendly as it is always just a domain.

Absolutely fantastic. That is exactly what I am looking for. I will try to get around to running a relay but this is excellent news for what I was looking for. Thank you, I will be consistently reading the release notes for Nos updates!

I would like to view all posts only including people who are intentionally posting to Nostr. There is value in watching what anyone is authentically posting, hashtags or not.

Which Nostr client or paid/public relay currently supports filtering out cross-posted content from bridges like Mostr?

Do I need to run my own relay, are there paid relays that support this filtering, or is there a way to exclude posts with NIP-05 matching the bridge in any current clients, for example?

If running my own relay just to do this is the answer, so be it but I’m having a hard time finding the info and it’s hard to recommend Nostr to any family or friends until I can find a way to filter the bridges. Thanks.

Examples?

And is it even conceptually still Nostr if it’s not using a relay?

Aren’t these all systems that can only be accessed via a centralized web app at this time though?

Are there any truly distributed Nostr apps/sites besides notes that we can access today (without hosting your own copy of the website)?

You didn’t comment? You could have name-dropped Nostr!

Good for them. There is space for it in Nostr and it’s an open protocol.

They are acting as a custodial service for access to Nostr, so you sign into it like a traditional username + password login and you don’t get to know what your secret key is.

It is an open protocol.

There will be several custodial Nostr clients, it’s only a matter of time.

They may unfortunately be even be more popular than non-custodial someday.

The key is to make the experience better on non-custodial apps than on the custodial apps.

Email works better custodial, web hosting works better custodial, there is another chance to overcome those two issues and more with making Nostr better as non-custodial.

That will be possible when we acknowledge the serious user experience issues with non-custodial and work to constantly make the experience better than custodial.

ZBD solves many experience issues for its users and ignoring that is doing us a disservice.

Many people using ZBD don’t care about its shortcomings (they’re coming from old social media). They will either use custodial or they will hopefully find a non-custodial client that compares to ZBD when one exists someday.

Your Bitwarden or any password vault shouldn’t be sitting on the Internet in the first place.

And if you’re hosting you passwords in Bitwarden SaaS without IP restrictions in place you’re just as crazy.

I mean, they’re not wrong. It’s pretty likely that a domain with the word Bitcoin in it is proudly trying to scam you and they don’t want to be a part of it.

About 15 years ago they actually blocked me from using the word “bank” in a domain too (it was part of my gamer handle).

Ok, seriously time for a rant.

Your cell phone is no longer a phone. It is a tracking device, with lots of things to distract you from the things you should be doing. It's a fucking fidget spinner that also just happens to tell anyone who really wants to know exactly where you are and what you are doing. It is a digital collar, at the end of a wireless leash.

What happens when someone tries to call my phone number? Nothing. most times the bloody thing doesn't notify me, and the call goes to voice mail, where a computer records a message. Then I get an email that I have a message. So why the fuck am I carrying around a phone that is always powered on? So I might get a notification that I have a fucking email, that someone might have tried to make contact with me?

My wife really doesn't understand this. Her normie self thinks it is fucking normal to be available and interruptible all day and night. That is complete bullshit.

So why do I even carry my phone around at all? It is a fucking game-boy. I can do a crossword puzzle on it while taking a shit, instead of fucking around with a newspaper and finding a pen. It plays music in my car, and has maps. On my motorcycle, it shows my speed and RPMs, because the displays on the motorcycle itself are down by my nuts, and I don't ride around on my motorcycle looking at my own sack. On my boat, it displays nautical charts, GPS positioning and plotting, and speed. I can also check tide charts. In the grocery store, it keeps my store coupons organized and actually saves me money, but I question this a bit. And yeah, when I'm pretending to sit around and watch TV, I can play Mah-jongg, read shit on Nostr, and shitpost.

Are any of those purposes necessary? Nope. Not one. But some are really fucking handy. Probably the most handy are the maps and charts, MC displays, and maybe the coupons. The shittier part of this is the handy stuff is also the stuff that relies on mobile data and GPS, so going to WiFi only isn't a great option.

Does turning off my phone make sense? Not really. Just more bother turning it back on when I want to do something with it. I think I'll continue to just leave it behind more and more. That way the excuse "I didn't have my phone on me" rings true, because I rarely will have my phone on me. If I need it for something, I'll know where to find it.

But you know what I won't be needing it for? Phone calls. I'll see whatever came of those when I check my email next, which might be a few hours, maybe even a day or more. If you need something more urgently, come find me, or find someone else.

Why do you continue to use it in ways you do not want to use it? Most of the issues you describe are self-inflicted and rectifiable.

It’s the thing that had me consider not staying around when I first started a few months ago.

It’s in global every day and it’s why I cannot recommend Nostr to people.

It should either be:

- Filtered at the client with detection like NSFWspy

- Relays need to start blocking MOSTR (but they will eventually be in Nostr directly)

- Global needs a warning and a reminder how Nostr is not censorable.
