Here are some discoveries about bluesky:

1. Clients and servers use the same API endpoints.

2. The "Lexicon" methods described at https://atproto.com/guides/lexicon correspond directly to API routes on the path /xrpc/:method

3. These routes all require authentication. Eg `curl "https://bsky.social/xrpc/app.bsky.actor.getProfile?actor=xkcd.bsky.social"` results in `{"error":"AuthenticationRequired","message":"Authentication Required"}`

4. The auth requirement is hardcoded, so even if I started an atproto development server I'd have to modify the code to remove that restriction before I could build a bridge against it.

This thing might be capable of federation, but at the moment it's not even ready for content to be mirrored.

Ahh it’s a Pixelfed instance. I haven’t tested federation with Pixelfed at all.

If you’re good at backend you most definitely do not suck at UX. It all forms one cohesive system where performance, code quality, design, and features are balanced to deliver the best UX.

Give me an example. Dots in usernames are not normally allowed.

Nostr seen through Husky, Fedilab, and Tusky.

We’re doing that here: https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/strfry-policies/-/blob/develop/src/policies/anti-duplication-policy.ts

And for the most part nobody is working around it yet, and/or they just get caught by IP rate limiting.

I suppose it's nice devs are not at total war yet, like how they are on the Fediverse. But it's important to remember that "extend, embrace, extinguish" only applies to mega corporations, not some guy. Devs reserve the right to attract the most users and then break compatibility. The way to fight back is to attract even more users. The Genghis Khan mentality wins, in this network of chaos.

Nostr dev drama can be summed up as:

1. "Fuck you, pay me"

2. Forgetting you're Genghis Kahn

Dude, why isn't there The Bible THE GAME? It's like Assassin's Creed but you're Jesus. Open world - you can level up your wisdom and perform incantations. You go from town to town defending yourself from Romans who are chasing after you, and in each town you gather apostles. In the midgame you fight Goliath, except he's Roman. Even though you win, there's a cutscene where you lose anyway and get crucified. Then Easter happens and you come back as SUPER JESUS. The game's difficulty ramps up to adjust for the fact you're now super powerful. You wander through the desert and fight Satan. You think it's the final boss, but then... YOU FIGHT GOD. How has this game not been made yet?

I learned early on that people in git issues don't control the Fediverse, developers do. It's the same with Nostr.

Hello :gleasonator: 😂 :ablobcatrainbow: :disputed: yolo

Custom emojis. I've been thinking about adding an "emoji" tag and proposing a NIP.

In short... maybe?? The npub is npub189ca2rwmunkv5rccy9yegpk4th7n67jj84n3rt39y7wtg4rerzpqyqpsrr

I got that from here: https://mostr.pub/.well-known/nostr.json?name=luke_channel_at_videos.lukesmith.xyz

However, the way the bridge works, someone from Nostr needs to be following them, and then new content _might_ show up, if it's compatible with the bridge.

I'm not sure we support PeerTube's video format yet. I'll add it to the backlog.

😂

Not sure, I haven’t tested PeerTube compatibility

Kinstones… they’re like business deals. You wouldn’t understand that would you, broke boy?

Well, I beat Minish Cap. But I accidentally put Din and Nayru into the wrong house so now I have to delete my save file.
