Just finished setting up my first cloud vps through Hetzner, along with Ollama and Mistral for a more ethical approach to using chatbots! Felt a bit guilty supporting OpenAI so wanted to give this a shot! Any tips?

Welcome! Here's a good starting place to get caught up 👇

Thanks so much! will definitely check these vids out
BANGER analysis! Thanks so much dude!
Yo, thanks Troy! I've heard of forking through github for sure. Do people collaborate on the development Nostr as a whole through Github?
More in the realm of wondering how it works. Any sources is greatly appreciated!
This is 💯 noob advice directed at other noobs:
I'm coming up on the 6 month mark of my presence on #Nostr. I've learned a lot and I still have much more to learn.
Here are 10 tips to help you make the most out of a new #Nostr profile.
1. Introduce yourself and use this hashtag: #introductions
2. #asknostr when things don't work or make sense (if you're not a developer there's a bunch of stuff that isn't immediately intuitive).
3. If you aren't really into #bitcoin, just ignore it. It won't go away, but you can reduce how much of it you encounter by only following content you are interested in. Nostr has plenty to offer in the way of art/music/culture.... You'll probably want to set up a Wallet for #zaps still though. Note*You can stretch a dollar's worth of bitcoin a long way with small tips (21 sats is a popular amount to tip and that's like a fraction of a cent of something).
4. Yes. You should set up a bitcoin wallet for #zaps. I use nostr:nprofile1qqst4qyeqenw7zm0fwjsty68h6cnys5jre2xd8ngqpjv5a2j26s78fspzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucm0d9hx7uewd9hj75a0pev. There are many others to choose from. If the concept confuses you, #asknostr.
5. Terminolgy: your post is a note, your app is a client (i.e. I use the #amethyst client). #Zaps are tips using small increments of bitcoin called sats. The good people of nostr are known as #nostriches. Your npub is a public address. It's OK to share. Nsec is private. Protect your Nsec. If you lose it, you may lose access to your profile. If someone else gets it, they can take over your account.
6. Spend some time trying to understand what a relay is and how/why to choose between them. There are some pretty good resources out there somewhere. #asknostr for help.
7. Don't follow people just because they follow you. And don't follow people for sats. That's cringe. There aren't a lot of scammers and bots yet, but the phenomena is increasing. Be careful out there!
8. There are no algos to guide you toward your interests. You have to seek them out on your own. Curate your follows with care. You can make with a really great community of frens this way.
9. Interact with others. Say stuff. Sometime's, it's more important to comment on other people's notes than to make your own.
10. Don't give up! It may seem lonely out there at first. IMHO, you should probably have at least a weekly presence here. It may take a few months to start seeing the benefits of this amazing freedom-tech, but it's worth it. For your efforts, you will be rewarded with the friendship of real human beings. You will have real conversations and you will develop real community.
*Bonus* try saying #GM (good morning) when you wake up. And say GM back to others who use it too. It's a thing.
Just started my journey on nostr yesterday! thanks for the tips! 😃

- My first little introduction to this world! Loved reading the plethora of perspectives within the information security field. Opened my eyes to so much behind the scenes in technology! #reading #cybersecurity #book #technology
Anyone have any good sources I can use to better understand how exactly open-source works? #technology #introductions
Thank you! I discovered it through Jack Dorsey’s recent interview on the power of open source!
This is amazing.
