I see. Well, fabric mods weren't too difficult to install either. I spent most time figuring out which ones I want.
"Bitcoiners" desiring for "their" governments to buy bitcoin have to be some of the most confused people. Rather than buying it themselves with their hard earned money, they want to give it to the government to buy it for them and keep it in government wallet knowing full well that if shit hits the fan and the government has to sell it, e.g. to bail out bitcoin haters, it will.
Demand lower taxes instead and buy on your own.
Oh, optifine is still being used? I heard it fell out of popularity. I personally installed a few Fabric mods.
Did you install optimization mods? I finally did and the speedup is crazy.
The author of the meme does.
It's not best practice universally. E.g. if you got your coins completely anonymously CJ before LN channel open is useless. Similarly, if you're going to open another channel with the closed UTXO CJ won't help you much. The key thing here is you could transact billions in Bitcoin inside $1000 channel and after you close it noone would know.
View keys in Monero allow anyone posessing them to see the entire transaction history. Popular Monero wallets used by random people simply leak them to centralized server.
Whoever made that meme.
"send XMR to address"
that's what these folks did, and they got arrested:

The 18 japanese people: https://cointelegraph.com/news/monero-transactions-japanese-authorities-arrest-18-scammers
"Just sending xmr to an address" is also bad advice when the most popular monero wallets (cake wallet and monerujo) are known to have been unwittingly giving a list of nearly all their users' xmr transactions plus your ip address to Chainalysis: https://www.digilol.net/blog/chainanalysis-malicious-xmr.html
It is very easy to leak your personal info, especially your ip address, so do not "just send XMR to address" -- even the Monero website warns against this stupid "just use xmr" meme:
LOL Monero idiots saying people don't need Tor with Monero 😂
That on chain data it supposedly leaks is useless. Monero is equally bad in terms of who can spy because in practice most people reveal view keys.
I'd consider Monero if it was pegged to btc and had an L2.
I don't think it's the *root* reason. There isn't one, there are multiple.
New blog post: https://petertodd.org/2025/fake-channels-and-rgb-lightning
tl;dr: the fact that you can route over fake channels on lightning, means implementing Lightning on top of client-side-validated tokens like RGB is much easier than you'd expect.
Probably not a new idea. But someone's gotta write it down...
Yeah, I've seen this twice. Already implemented in hosted channels and proposed as a way to allow people running multiple LN implementations to forward without having a channel.
I know I just for some reason thought you looked at Rust at some point.
If people are stupid enough to sends sats to accounts just because they think they are women let them.
Interesting! A friend said she can eat bread in Latin America but not Europe. The gluten makes her depressed.
Same here. The sperm count started droppinng even before that and people doing carnivore got it back. Could it possibly be the meat?! 🤔
~15 years windows-free. Life is great.
How does it compare to Rust's serde?
Potential security advantage: you can unplug the linux storage when booting Windows so that it cannot mess it up.
