nostr will have the best tech and the most devs, people won’t be able to ignore that for long. other clients on other protocols will run into heavy handed moderation issues due to centralization of power, government pressure, and lack of user keys. This is the main risk I see for mastodon, bluesky and big tech, regardless of current user numbers.

As long as people care about freedom and building a sovereign presence in cyberspace, nostr is inevitable.

It’s possible most people don’t actually care about these things, but at least we’ll have the best solution for people who do. Those people are the coolest to hang out with anyways.

Right, I just mean you could add a wide-open relay and maintain a blacklist. Wouldn't work against sybil attacks, but it would be ok in practice probably. Just don't tell nprofile1qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcpzemhxue69uhks6tnwshxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgewaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnwa5x2un99e3k7mf0qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwv3sk6atn9e5k7tcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcqypftfgrkhjammsap4marwdvpdnm5nya3hrdjq2cpezputzl8ltvt6p0jee5

Coinkite website says many of the products are open source. Not the coldcard or blockclock? Wonder which ones are?

What happens when the clock hits $100K?

trademark law is different to patent law as you can use a name for how long as long as you want before registration, and you still have some rights

there is if it is active use

Not even FOSS, just Source Viewable.

Everyone is allowed to choose their own license for their work, but everyone is also allowed to choose what licenses they want their purchases to be under. I will nevwr buy another coinkite thing, sadly...

It’s already added

Hmmm.. that’s what I’ve been trying to use and I thought I needed an iOS certificate, but you’re right that’s just for iOS apps, not web domains (for which I’m already registered)

I’ve been able to populate a Apple Pay “Buy” button using Stripe Elements, and when I click it the iOS pop-up appears, but the payment always fails

I’ve tried with both test and live keys

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help! 🙏

But it’s through a “payment link” which is a redirect away from my site and adds extra steps to the UI

What I’m building required easy quick pay options otherwise I fear the UX will become poor and people will just not use it

Is there another way without stripe payment links?

That feels harsh on the devs. Without them slogging away, for free, we wouldn’t even have #nostr. I appreciate them, despite bugs. If you want perfection, get on Fakebook…just kidding,I’d rather scrape my face off with my unvarnished fingernails.

You do not have to pay Apple for this

Just use Stripe

I thought that was the whole point of having a stripe account

Such a scam

It was unbelievable the amount of hoops I had to jump through just to eventually arrive at a paywall

there were plenty of clients before jack arrived, even damus. nostr worked fine. this idea that nostr needs 1m per month to survive is extremely misleading and simply wrong.

I can see it. There is something about updates, or even merely switching clients that can get your following list sideways. It is like a necessary oil/filter change, just check your lists occasionally, and please don’t leave us.

I’ve had the relay before this happened though?

After you add this relay do you need to do anything else? Or does it sorta just store your following list in case of emergency?
