100K is within our grasp. We just need to keep building. Soon, we will have 100K active users across Nostr.

Why is Pokey so good?

Pokey connects directly into your inbox relays and keeps the connection open at all times.

Every other notification system is using a server that watches relays for new events and sends them down via Google/Apple/UnifiedPush systems.

It's WAY faster than ANY of these push systems.

There is no restriction on message sizes or frequency. No payment plans for servers and no algorithmic delays from push providers.

It can authenticate in your Private Inbox relays for DMs because it can get Amber to sign as of you. No watching server can do that.

It also decentralizes notifications from Clients. There is no need to run 15 different notification systems, one for each client you want to use.

Once notifications are downloaded, it can pass those events to the appropriate apps to display. You can choose a default app per event kind. And if you don't have an app registered for the event, it can display the notification itself.

It's a win-win-win-win-win situation.

I ended up initially writing about 80% of my Nests notification bot in bash, because that's what I'm familiar with and use on a daily basis. However, it just wasn't working as expected and I could not figure it out. So, I jused ChatGPT to covert it all over to Python. I'm a beginner with Python, but it works! It's probably a terrible hackjob, but it works dammit! Well, at least for now, until someone breaks it 😅

I forgot how good it was

Rewatched Misery last night. Great movie. Excellent performance by Kathy Bates. Perfect to set the mood for Halloween

Rare footage of my future gf getting up to make coffee.

But why ?

Amsterdam by night ✨

✈️ Arriving at Amsterdam airport.

Passport control officer: “reason for your visit?”

“The bitcoin conference”

Officer nods curiously: “really? Is it because it’s going down, or up?”

“It’s going up sir. Forever”

😎

The simple life. Few... 😉
