Man I hope this project takes off. Achieving true L2 payment routing and network support without having a couple grand tied up in channel liquidity to be a meaningful participant would be a game changer.
It’s like Windows update knows every time I run an 18 hour image/verification of my primary drives. Within a day of running the backup and copying the images to a couple of external drives, it pops up.
I love Souls games. I too am a masochist. There’s nothing quite like grinding a character for months and building up his stats, only to still be one-hit by mobs and crushed 47 times by every boss before passing. I still haven’t had the pleasure of playing any of them coop. DS3 or Elden Ring would be a blast with a fellow glutton for punishment. The worlds are huge and beautifully rendered.
I’m 53. My balls would still be touching fabric.

I can input a receive address there but I can’t send any zaps from Primal. When I click the zap link on a post the only option is the onboard wallet and that one isn’t available in Canada. It’d be nice if like other apps it gave you the option to copy the zap link and paste it into the wallet of your choice. Between iOS’s blocking of zap functionality I am using a patchwork of apps and web based Nostr client access depending on what I want to do. ie just read posts, post content with pics, or zap posts. There’s no one size fits all app yet that lets me do all of it, but it’s still better than ever going back to Twitter. Desktop is a different story. I can do everything because I am running a private server. But I’m seldom at my desk at home.
Can’t post anything on Damus on iOS 17.4.
Can’t post pics on Iris.
Refuse to use Primal because they tie you to using their own onboard wallet for zaps and then KYC you if you want to use their wallet. Then inform you that their wallet service isn’t available in your country (Canada) when you try to set it up.
Can’t see zap icon on posts at all on Nostur or Damus first least acquiring lightning addresses and manual zapping invoice addresses outside of the apps
