Okay but how to represent attribution - not only the zap but acknowledging the original author? is "zap" the closest we have?
`z` would be great, also because it would get indexed and me as an artist or developer would want to know which 1063s have been published attributing me
🌀
Do we have any good way of marking delegated authorship in events?
If not, I'll start using the `q` tag to convey this info.
Imagine I post a kind 1 with a quote from a nostrich friend. I could voluntarily use `q: friends_pubkey` and now clients can forward all zaps on that note to them. Like folks do on stacker.news
Same for kind 1063, I could sign an APK while still acknowledging the original author with `q`.
Whatcha think?

piped is even better!
#privacytechpro privacy tool recommendations:
if you want to share a link a yt video on desktop in a way that isn't tracked by #google / #youtube, use #invidious (a youtube frontend) to share
*note
*isn't tracked by google
*always use a vpn.
from invidious faq:
"Q: What data is shared with YouTube?
A: By default, the video stream is fetched directly from Google's servers (googlevideo.com) in order to reduce the bandwidth required by invidious, meaning that Google will be able to see your IP address and some other data commonly sent by web browsers, like your user-agent string.
If you don't want that to happen, you can go to the preferences page and check the Proxy videos option. When this option is enabled, the Invidious instance will be used as a relay (also known as a "proxy") between you and Google's servers, which will hide your IP address and the other information sent by your browser."
go to https://invidious.io/ -> tap 'use invidious' -> choose a server -> paste the yt link in the search box -> tap share
on desktop you can use the ff extension called #LibRedirect to make this process much faster (there is a library of other front-ends included)
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/
on #android i recommend #UntrackMe for easy front-end privacy respecting link sharing
https://framagit.org/tom79/nitterizeme
it's only available on f-droid.
*note: if you have to use f-droid, i recommend f-droid basic (it has unattended updates)
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.fdroid.basic/
also...
#LibreTube (more private) or #NewPipe are both great front-end apps for watching and sharing yt videos on android
#NewPipe
or #LibreTube (more private...it proxies all requests via piped and prevents google servers from accessing your ip address) are both awesome youtube front-end apps for watching and sharing
read about the differences here:
https://github.com/libre-tube/LibreTube#differences-to-newpipe
pro tip: use an always-on vpn like #mullvad
or #protonvpn
https://github.com/protonvpn/android-app
...and take advantage of their splittunneling function to keep the vpn always-on but still exclude specific apps (proton also allows web addresses) from the vpn for apps/sites that don't play nicely with vpns (and many payment processors)
and as always, i recommend using #GrapheneOS for the best privacy and security on android ( factory unlocked recent-ish #pixel required )
#cybersecgirl #privacy #tools #opensource #android #grapheneos
piped is available everywhere (not only android) and proxies by default! https://piped.video
I just had two of the best months of my life in Madeira for Sovereign Engineering.
I was able to meet, work, discuss and learn from very very very VERY smart people working on freedom tech. It was an amazing experience to be with some of the most amazing human beings I've ever met and all with the goal of creating the tools to enable more sovereign individuals. And after seeing all the work and seeds that were planted here, it makes me feel so much more bullish about the future. I'll be forever grateful to nostr:npub1s0veng2gvfwr62acrxhnqexq76sj6ldg3a5t935jy8e6w3shr5vsnwrmq5 for this opportunity.
If you are thinking about applying for a future cohort, I only have one suggestion: DO IT.
What a great time to be alive #SovEng

Is this the first time the Alby Extension is powered by Cashu?
Thanks to the gonuts developers for making this so easy to implement in go!
This experiment truly shows the power of open protocols such as NWC and Cashu ⚡️

I'm experimenting with a new podcast where we discuss a host of intriguing ideas from the edge.
Here's the first episode with satellite.earth founder nostr:npub1lunaq893u4hmtpvqxpk8hfmtkqmm7ggutdtnc4hyuux2skr4ttcqr827lj!
https://fountain.fm/episode/E8PW5z2yVPzNBN2b44Kr
We discuss a wide range of topics including: Terence McKenna, the world of language, evolution, Web of Trust, and the future of Nostr. At least two big ideas really clicked for me: 1) Nostr as the substrate for digital evolution (i.e. forking with checkpoints) and 2) Nostr as an API for market intelligence.
This was a ton of fun to make! I hope to do this regularly with Stu and many other interesting folks. Feedback and ideas for future episodes welcome 🙏 ⚡

🕸️ Deployed a tiny WoT API that calculates which of my follows follow another npub, sorted by PageRank (database has ~1M connections, only follows for now)
🔜 Weighted PageRank with lists (mute & others)
Try it out: curl https://zap.store/wot?from=npub1&to=npub2
https://video.nostr.build/0e2f17611894f30237c4ddde83be0782196d6268be77880c907c77ac8bcbfa5f.mp4
Careful with TO DO lists.
You own the list, which helps you remind and organize yourself.
Don't let the dopamine hit of a DONE make the list own you.
I can relate to this.
Killing the idea that anything is ever finished. When you realize everything is in flow and unfinished all of the time (it just depends on how much you want to zoom in or out). That days are short and unexpected things happen, and that you're doing what you humanely can to improve. Humility and acceptance will let you go to bed in peace and rest.
A hack, because we all still judge our productivity, is trying to focus more on what has been achieved in a week or month, instead of a day.
So let's say you make a Wikifreedia page about a Beyoncé album.
1. If she's on Nostr your put her npub in there, right?
2. You'd also make a page for every song. And nobody's stopping you from storing the actual songs on #Blossom servers and listing the hashes on those pages.
Do this in structured way and suddenly you can build apps that compete with Spotify, Netflix and the like.
You have a way for those apps to offer all music, movies, books, ...and give a massive advantage to the early (and zappable!) creators on Nostr.
Yes, this is ilkegal. But would it work? nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft nostr:npub1mygerccwqpzyh9pvp6pv44rskv40zutkfs38t0hqhkvnwlhagp6s3psn5p
Fwiw Spotify bootstrapped with "illegal" content

I was just talking about this with Stu 😄 Would love to have something like Lidarr but on nostr/blossom
we could've had him at SEC-01 but nostr:npub100n0yahp4kan33pz3htw5e5qegs3t5umesesjp9ycz3l4xpwawws988nqc failed us 🤣
