You realize than Libertarianism always ends with porn and degeneracy, right? It is literally an ideology created by Jews to justify trafficking shiksas and defrauding the goyim.
You don’t escape this without rejecting Libertarianism.
I think starting from a P2P foundation makes sense. Then like if people want to grow their account or go viral, etc, they could pay for seeding servers, so to speak.
Just an idea, but the outlier is the viral account. Most people don’t really care to extend beyond the “dunbar number” of around 150 anyway.
Honestly, I don’t want 20 relays or even 200 relays. I just want P2P connections with my friends, and maybe a way to get introduced to their friends.
Probably, but I have no idea what the limitations are in iOS that have kept something like that from being built already. Not a dev here, just a power-user and one that only uses Android for mobile these days.
There are a lot of ideas about what the ideal onboarding experience should look like. I think they will all be tried and we will narrow down on which is best based on how well received they each are by non-technical users.
I've thought it would be a great idea to have a signer built into a password manager, like Bitwarden. However, there are a LOT of people who still don't use password managers for some reason. (What is wrong with you people?)
Others like the idea of building it into a native client on each device, such as Damus on iOS and Amethyst on Primal, etc. Perhaps all native Nostr clients could have it built in, and users would just choose which one they want to use for it. I think this would create artificial lock-in for whatever client they chose. Yes, they COULD just set up a different client as their signer, if they wanted to switch, but most would just see this as an enormous hassle, especially if they have remote signing set up with multiple other clients that they would need to set up all over again.
Another idea I have seen that would possibly work on Android, but could never work on iOS, is to have the signer built into a Nostr app store, so that the user would use the app store for their original onboarding and for finding apps to use with their signing credentials. Over here on Android, that would maybe mean nostr:nprofile1qyv8wumn8ghj7enfd36x2u3wdehhxarj9emkjmn99uqzqun2rcnpe3j8ge6ws2z789gm8wcnn056wu734n6fmjrgmwrp58q390rp63 adding it to nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7qpq0r8xl2njyepcw2zwv3a6dyufj4e4ajx86hz6v4ehu4gnpupxxp7sdvr7w9 . I think he has more ambitious goals than just having Nostr apps in his appstore, though, as can be readily seen by perusing what is already available there.
Personally, I think having it as a separate app, like Amber, is just fine. I would love to see that signer app actually become the app used to onboard new Nostriches, and then suggest to them clients they can use with the signer, and how to get Zapstore in order to find more. However, for that to happen, the signer app needs to be readily available in the system's main app-store, otherwise you are expecting newbies to download it directly from GitHub or first get Obtainium or Zapstore (ALSO not available in the Google Play Store) to download it.
Flow should be: Go to app-store > install signing app > set up basic profile > back up nsec now or skip till later > select client to try and be redirected to download it > open client and main option for login is using a signer app which automatically reaches out to already installed and set up signer > be amazed because the client you just logged into has your profile information and a default feed because you haven't followed anyone yet.
I agree with your ideal. We just need amber on iOS.
The browser based app like nsec bunker just doesn’t cut it. It makes the whole system feel finicky and brittle.
Couldn’t a local signer be added to an app like Damus? Then it just becomes your main Nostr app?
I always wanted nostr:npub1tnpfz60snm7ler8k8c69335n37we6690qttl88t556yzkjxhahjq3kkkpe to become a local signer but that never came to fruition 😔
Lord of the Rings did not teach this btw. Hobbiton was raped by Orcs because the Hobbits were libertarians.
LOTR explicitly shows us the supremacy of the benevolent king. nostr:note1ccpxu60vsjgwuypsmpa4twmugpyw5h064pkc9nf64lwsp8rlspjqg3gute
“If we have power, then our enemies can take it from us and use it against us. So we have to intentionally cripple ourselves and make ourselves weak.”
“What if someone with power shows up and attacks or takes over?”
“…”
Honestly fiat currency is awesome when the government doesn’t hate its own citizens. Worked great for the Third Reich for example.
The problem isn’t “fiat”.
There is no local signer for iOS. I want this really badly too. Remote signing is so buggy and often just doesn’t work.
My feedback. I think the main issue is with double dipping on two separate narratives. With nsec bunker, you don’t get the benefits of the keys. It’s a reversion back to username and password. But you do get other benefits with that. So just pick one or the other. Presenting both just shows the annoyances / cons of both.
The people are banging down our doors trying to get in.
With Libertarianism, there is nothing to stop them from entering. In fact, Libertarianism is the view that says “it’s natural for them to want to come here. We have population collapse, so they must fill in the gap”
How does that stop infinity immigration?
If they can read your notes, they can store your notes on their servers. Then when you want to delete your notes, they don’t get deleted, i.e. you don’t own them anymore.
Maybe…. But I know that Nostr relays don’t have the same authentication options as, say, Mastodon servers, which are heavily focused on controlling who can access the data.
I don’t think a whitelist ability is possible in Nostr btw. Best you could do is encrypt the data and share the decrypt key with a list of users.
“The power to destroy a thing is the absolute control over it”
When you hand it over to relays, it’s theirs, not yours.
Yeah I would honestly just lift the UX from fraidycat.
> every follow has a summary that takes up a mere two lines.
> You can certainly expand this 'line' to see a list of recent titles (or excerpts) from the individual - or click the name of the follow to read the individual on their network.
This is cool too:
> Follows are arranged by tag (text - I like to use emoji) and the tabbed bar on Fraidycat's main page lets you select a tag to view.
> Follows also have an importance: real-time, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly. These indicate how frequently Fraidycat should check that individual and moves follows off the main page if they aren't real-time, where you can view them periodically on your own.
Also their planned features:
> I'd like to offer a personal search box for your follows.
> Perhaps even a keyword filter that will notify you when that keyword comes up in a follow
The best thing about https://fraidyc.at is that one person can’t take over your feed by posting a ton.
It’s ordered just by WHO was active most recently. Nostr needs this UX badly.

By the way, you don’t need to bow to him just because he wrote a book. The ideas existed before both him and you. And his book was released well after you began your work.
You’re peers, if anything.
