Have 7 of these setup as a Nomad cluster - 3 server nodes (for HA control plane), 4 nodes to host workloads. The happiest I've been with my homelab in yearrrrs

Plate with apple cider vinegar and a couple drops of dawn soap

This release features our new embedded, in-app node and LSP

Installed the alpha but the LSP doesn't seem to be built in. I enabled the toggle but it's asking for the LSP endpoint and access key?

Jay Clayton is a fraud.

Almost forgot #coffeechain

This batch of Dune's Chito was delicious 👍👍

Ah I got your profile zap! (Thanks 😁)

Thinking the issue might be on the receivers end and maybe not your end 🤷‍♂️

Is it happening fairly frequently regardless of user?

Ooh cool idea, is this just running a browser showing mempool.space or do you have something custom going on?

What app are you using?

What wallet are you using?

Who are you trying to zap?

I hear you and totally understand your point. I think a lot of what your feeling is simply because this network is still so small; it's attracted like minded people that are into similar topics (Bitcoin/freedom/etc). If you're not passionate about those things I could totally see how it being EVERYWHERE could be off-putting. I think that problem will slowly solve itself over time, but nevertheless, it's a very understandable feeling on your end.

Hashtags like #grownostr are our attempt at branching out to other topics, but still totally get your point.

The #zapathon event you're referring to was originally to give people like yourself (new to Bitcoin) a way to get some sats for free so that they could participate in this new idea. I agree it's kinda turned into a weird frenzy at this point. But it has imo very wholesome intentions.

I wouldn't worry about people not wanting to interact with you because you don't use zaps. Zaps are just a form of appreciation. But we still appreciate good discussion - zaps or no zaps - like what's happening here! 😁

p.s. if you have any interest in sending zaps, your wallet seem to be working. Depending on which app you are using I wouldn't mind explaining how to set up the ability to send. Just an offer, no worries if you are not interested

It’s complicated, but the worst is a bit harsh. There are a lot of options but they are all useful to a power user

It’s a different take on where/how value changes hand in a social media context.

In the legacy social media world users attract eyeballs with their post and the platform sells those views to advertisers. So it’s kind of this weird value triangle that a lot of people think contributes greatly to the toxicity you see as a result of those platforms. The incentives aren’t aligned between platform, poster, and viewer.

On nostr, we are attempting to simplify and correct those value incentives. Our idea is to simplify remove the platform from the value triangle. Make value flow directly from poster to viewer. We think this will better align our incentives and remove a lot of the resulting toxicity. It’s also only possible with Bitcoin and lightning.

Nostr isn’t “all about zapping”, but zapping is certainly *one of* its most profound innovations.

What’s not to like about it? (Honest question)

How have I never seen this before!?

Have you ever wondered why we drive on the parkchain and park on the drivechain?

Woooooooo! Donated and DM'ed!

Probably not on testflight. That is a prerequisite

Definitely the same person who runs the fake RFKjr account
