If I had to guess, it probably adds those to make sure it gets notes from your follows that do not publish on the relays you have.
Maybe amethyst is not the app you want as a power-user. Maybe the app you want is yet to be developed.
Bitcoin-era idiom : Not worth the sat it's inscribed on.
Y'alls uses the key of the HTLC to decrypt the file, so that makes it trustless from the probider PoV.
You should look into how they do it.
Just learned that Nicolas Taleb is on Mastodon..... Always one step behind.
Do you have any recommendations for reading more about it ?
Also just noticed that the first 2 pics, it's the same "girl" 4 times.
The question I have is : would there be a way to know ?
I mean you can dig through your logs and find the node and probably find an IP address no ?
they also need to stop tattooing jewelry or having big googly eyes. Things look like a drug induced fever dream.
Proportiona are also off.
polls are especially meaningless in nostr because there's no "sign up". the pollster can flood his own poll with his own money in your example.
Yes, he could do it for free, but it doesn't give you what you're after which is signal.
To find signal you have to analyse each vote to know how likely it is that it is a vote from a unique entity and then tally from there. Sats don't solve your problem at all, nostr can solve it.
They can ban it.
Every prohibition is a push from white to black markets, not the extinction of an activity.
I mean..... you can zap yourself. The poster is the only one with the real signal.
So, with enough money you can game a meaningless poll on NOSTR ?
It would be better to have a "sybil" diagnostic of each voting option to know what actually happened.
Shower thought :
Clients may be able to convince users to rev-share zaps.
That may be enough to stay clear from advertising.
here's one more brother
It is black and white. "Understanding why it was done" is a pretty low bar and serves to condone the worst arrocities.
that government is racking up scandal after scandal. never seen such corruption in canada.
