If native Tor support on Amethyst sets a new standard for Nostr apps, we may be witnessing a pivotal moment in the history of mobile apps. It's hell on earth for tyrants.
I have to confess, I'm a bit promiscuous when it comes to clients. But there's something about Amethyst that always brings me back. It might be the fact that nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcscpyug always answers my DMs. Does he do anything about my issues? I may never know, but what matters is that I always feel heard 🫂
I'm implicitly talking about people here in Brazil and other dictatorship-inclined countries
If everyone were already accustomed to using a password manager, Nostr would have millions of users by now. Unfortunately, the people who need Nostr the most are the least tech-savvy.
hey guys , now I can code. I'm a swe. Look:
print("Hello world!")
nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcscpyug is doing an incredible job for the resources he has
You are the right guy for that
Dito isso, espero que o Bitcoin evolua para que coinjoins fiquem mais fáceis. Recentemente tiveram muitas explicações com Silence Payments. Há uma crescente conscientização de que é necessário melhorar a privacidade no Bitcoin.
Para os bitcoinheiros de plantão, qual a opinião de vocês sobre o Monero? Vale a pena comprar ou não?Melhor moeda pra transacionar. Quem tem skin on the game e tem a vida em risco caso a identidade seja revelada, geralmente prefere Monero.
I have almost no engagement on Nostr, which perfectly reflects my experience in real life.
Is there any tool available for automatically syncing Nostr posts to X? #asknostr
Bitcoin 🤘
Blockchain 😭
I honestly think nostr:nprofile1qqspwwwexlwgcrrnwz4zwkze8rq3ncjug8mvgsd96dxx6wzs8ccndmcpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qtxwaehxw309anxjmr5v4ezumn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tmwwp6kyvt6w46kz6nyxa6nxumc8pu82wfj09shvwt2wau8qu3cxvukxuesdd3nxufkws6nvanyx46njufsxvehsmtgwd4nvcejw43n7cnjdaskgcmpwd6r6arjw4jszxrhwden5te0dehhxarj9enx6apwwa5h5tnzd9az77vr4lw Telegram alternative is going to quickly become the worlds most used nostr client. There's a billion tg users happy to jump ship, particularly if someone can make a bridge for transitioning groups, and a bot father alternative.
I still believe that forking Telegram's original clients is the best approach. The polished micro-interactions in the UI would take a significant amount of time to replicate.
100,000 hours: Bitcoin's blockchain technology and its public record of individual transactions are inherently unscalable and harmful to privacy.
Question: as far as I know, Telegram clients are open source, so it should be possible basically port their clients to use a Nostr backend?
Interesting to notice that they are bring some functional programming stuff each newer release. The one you mentioned they add a couple of great packages for making transformations. Really good stuff.
Testing an old idea: NFC-based transient accounts: accounts that log off as soon as the app goes to the background, deleting all traces of the account from the phone.
It looks like this in debugging speeds: https://video.nostr.build/ef4274d150303fd28f5e7b6b02a7b0102176263dfb1b491969a0caab6b61e6ad.mp4
If you are an activist and if your phone is confiscated, they will never find anything on the phone. Not even your public key.
Walk around with Amethyst installed and an NFC tag hidden in your clothing. When you need to use Amethyst, tap the tag, insert your password and login. Lock the screen to delete everything.
The NFC has a NIP-49 password-encrypted nsec. If you need, destroy and dispose the NFC tag.
I never realized you cared so much about these things. It makes me really happy to see your focus on such important issues.
