Digit is Digit. I love her. I knew her online from wallstreetbets and she disappeared while going through some shit. I keep needing proof she's safe. To anyone I've ever treated unfairly, I apologize.

Add mine to your next zaps for anyone πŸ™

Or feel free to download and post the image from your own npub so the post can get zapped πŸ€™

I made a bingo card for Trump's #Nashville talk πŸ€”

Posting here before anywhere else

I can sense the peace in this simple screenshot. Good vibes. Thanks for sharing with us

I use social engineering to get the login keys from the sysadmins for the sytems running nostr relays, then I SSH straight into the relays

Or when I'm lazy I use garnet or nostrudel or primal or stuff like that

Your autocorrect settings should might a way to make it autocorrect boats to nostr instead. Sorry this isn't helpful

Because I'm angry at the community and it's hard to stop it from seeming directed at whoever I'm talking to, please let me inject this in the beginning of my reply: thank you for taking the time you've taken to discuss this.

Bitcoin was made long before Microsoft acquired GitHub. Not 8 YEARS AFTER. Satoshi Nakamoto wasn't even around by the time Microsoft acquired GitHub. Satoshi Nakamoto didn't have nostr. Bitcoin and Monero's devs should not have those projects on the worst possible git at this point, it lends itself to the argument that they're malware too.

And it's obviously worsened by all of these facts: that despite Garnet being a nostr client, these people working on it are using the worst possible git as a replacement for getting feedback from nostr users, instead of a supplement; that despite it being a nostr client, there is nowhere to report issues on nostr; that despite it being a nostr client, there are no nostr copies of the discussion threads on the git and on bounties.monero.social; that despite it being a nostr client, there aren't even fucking npubs copied and pasted in the threads.

These facts are ridiculous. If we're very lucky, Garnet is a good project and it's just the community encouraging shit like this that's causing devs to engage in such fucked up behavior. If we're not so lucky, a malicious copyright claim is building up where retnull wants to controll the Garnet name and use it to suck up oxygen from other similar projects while stagnating the development of Garnet so that nothing gets developed in this area. If we're very unlucky, retnull wants to build a honeypot that somehow ends up implementing spyware backdoors or worse, coin-stealing backdoors. I hope we are lucky, and if so, I'll be relieved to see proof in the form of retnull being an early adopter of ngit.

Typo: control, not controll

I don't have specific knowledge of what's in the code that's malware. I'm not a coder and can't review code.

It's what the code is in that's malware, that I have specific knowledge of - as I mentioned: the worst possible git.

It also seems like a malicious copyright claim might be building up, furthering the severity.

There would be less than zero reason to be surprised if this app spies on users and very little reason to be surprised if it steals monero from users based on its level of malware, so I can't recommend it.

I also must repeat, I'm very tired of the nostr community tolerating and promoting shit like this. It's been what, 8 FUCKING YEARS since Microsoft acquired GitHub? We need bird flu to kill people harder than COVID because this species is fucking dumb.

It's really hard to find quite perfect phrasing here. It's extremely relative; virtually all code is malware since virtually all coders are either malicious or make mistakes based on disinformation from other malicious people. But sometimes good faith efforts outweigh mistakes and the malware element seems canceled out. In this case, I have a bad feeling about my recommendation.

Me. It's probably "benign" i.e. probably won't steal the user's Monero but the red flags I was looking past when I recommended it got 10x worse and I don't trust it now.

Digit would like this quote.

Actually, perhaps she would find it painful to read.

Actually, I like it and find it painful to read, and it reminds me of her deeply.
