We’re done with the whole “create a fake account pretending to be a dumb new user to do meaningless ‘research’ about nostr usability instead of just listening to existing users” thing, right? Right? 😬

Today they say Nostr is too early for business. Witout realising, their businesses will be too late for Nostr.

I am not saying this out of naive confidence, but out of more than half decade of SaaS & Cloud Computing experience at the frontline of Silicon Valley.

Many software vendors can benefit hugely from Nostr style, even if they don't all-in Nostr.

Made it to NYC, I am enjoying myself, but I think I’m in shock. Population of my city is 13,480.

Nice! I will check Blowater out 🤙 And thank you for the zap! 💜 It doesn’t show on the note for some reason, I think maybe because I switched my receiving wallet recently. The sats went to my old wallet, but just letting you know I did receive them. Nostur shows it as an “unverified zap” which happens when I’ve changed wallets. Maybe that’s another thing clients should do, double check that it’s sending to the wallet in the user’s profile 😅 🤣

Most users will expect to use the @ format especially when tagging users, simply because that’s what 10+ years of social media have taught us.

I think Damus must do the first two things you suggested, but with a bare identifier it adds nostr: automatically. In these screenshots I used the naddr provided by Habla and the noteID provided by Damus for the same article (Will’s nostrdb article). In the first test Damus added nostr: automatically to the naddr, but didn’t render a preview or link. In the other 2 tests I used the note ID format with and without the @ and in both cases it rendered a preview. The Nostur client doesn’t render a preview for naddr, but it does make it clickable and opens the corresponding article in the client, which I think is at least an acceptable fallback.

Just makes sense from a user side that if you tag someone or a note in your client, people in other clients will be able to see who/what you tagged.

Really good software

There will come a time in the future that you can use your #bitcoin as collateral and since the value of bitcoin is going up against fiat the amount you borrowed from your #bitcoin will be negligible by that time.

Cool. I appreciate both your comments. For me, I will wait until I can just borrow from #btc then used that to get the right house.

The world is not ending, pls have more babies 🙏

Japan here comes Saunter #nostrasia

x is down

would never happen on nostr

Buying a house would be the singular reason I would sell my bitcoin...however that soesnt mean I would sell at the onset. No I would put 100 times the effort into finding the right house with property. A house that could also be an asset. Have a small family farm, some dog kennels and a work shop..

Basically I save in bitcoin for this in the future.

One day I'll be able to but that house with my bitcoin that wasn't debased daily.

Throughout August, my relay had a total of 9 TB of outgoing traffic. That's about 300 GB of daily outgoing traffic.

Or we could just do away with mob rule altogether
