I think it’s better to make the app, relay, and cache modular. I don’t like to tightly couple things like that, but it could be a matter of taste
And if that happens, I just switch apps or switch caching servers.
It’s the same thing with a nostr relay too. If they give me a degraded service, I stop using them. User choice
Why would it not be read from the caching server? Every time I post on Primal, it goes to my relays and shows up in other apps. And when someone replies to me, it shows up in primal. This is because the caching server reads from relays like normal
Why wouldn’t your relay work in Primal? If the relay can be read from, it should work, no?
All Nostr NIPs come from implementations.
Since when is it wrong to implement something and write the spec later after the kinks get worked out in practice? I thought that was encouraged in Nostr land
This is like saying that a Nostr relay is incredibly centralized.
Of course you would say “you can run your own nostr relay”.
Yes, precisely. You can run your own cache. What is the major malfunction here? nostr:note1qxtclv7s4eujrmj0arad2ecyzqvcezpnj9pm4ev9csw9h2p7ljlsl3gkga
nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr has openly supported alternative caching infrastructure. I remember it has been in his plans since they first released the cache and indexer stuff.
It’s really not his fault that nobody has taken up the offer to run one.
The same complaint could be aimed at large Nostr relay servers! It’s not their fault that people don’t want to run more alternative relays.
Exactly. It’s a problem with the efficiency of the cache. The idea of a cache, indexer, etc is great. Just need more competition to drive the quality of it.
nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr is right that they shouldn’t be the ONLY one putting in the effort here. Caches are great because they improve reliability and speed. Damus has a whole host of entirely different problems.
You’re giving away something that will 100x in the next 100 years to a post that made you giggle? If I really owe someone something, I’ll just send it to their wallet. Zaps are a security problem with no use case
good thing we have alternative apps then. What a blessing
Can someone explain to me why a person would ever use “zaps”?

> The hack risk of your client trusting zap addresses from a trusted backend is too high, money could be sent to the wrong place, this would tank nostr’s credibility.
This is an argument against zaps. They add nothing but unnecessary risk.
You can just use an alternative caching service or use none at all.
The cache provides a smoother user experience but they support user choice.
> Don't you want to live in that world?
Yes, but that’s not the world that we live in :(
I expected Trump to be disappointing, not outright blatant betrayal.
He’s a massive faggot that has lost all support from his base at this point. Same can be said of Trump and Vivek. Fuck em all.
Elon is literally banning accounts that ratio him now. Cancelling X Premium accounts too lol
I’m not using a product if the CEO makes it eminently clear that he hates me and everything I stand for
Elon has literally said that he will downrank your reach if your posts are “negative”. He is an open proponent of “freedom of speech, not freedom of reach”
