Can you share the preview URL?
Update of #Oracolo, interesting especially for those who do not write long formats: now the short notes block has two new styles: "Board" and "Full content"; the former shows notes in a pinterest-like fashion on two columns, while the latter shows full notes in full screen.

I agree that an offline-first approach is superior, and often needed, also to cover areas with poor or instable connectivity.
But is the signature really needed when the user is offline? Or should he be able to manipulate the content, and the signature can take place as soon the connection is restored, before the event is sent?
Cool. But this doesn't sound like a typical normies' scenario :)
I respectfully disagree.
We should just give them a better/compact form for an improved UX; maybe a login via NIP-05 plus a password to retrieve and decrypt the actual bunker URL is enough.
Good point.
And I suspect memes incentivize fuzzy positions with their irony, so the focus of ideas is further diluted.
We should also add it to https://oracolo.me/ nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq35amnwvaz7tms09exzmtfvshxv6tpw34xze3wvdhk6tcpzemhxue69uhkzat5dqhxummnw3erztnrdakj7qg3waehxw309ahx7um5wgh8w6twv5hsz9thwden5te0wahhgtnyw3hkummw9e3k7mf0qqs8hhhhhc3dmrje73squpz255ape7t448w86f7ltqemca7m0p99spgv7admp (but will it work if it's rendered dynamically?)
I will do it.

Nice!
You are cheating: on the head, not in front. It has to be in balance, without hands!
Sorry: unverified 😄
nostr:npub10000003zmk89narqpczy4ff6rnuht2wu05na7kpnh3mak7z2tqzsv8vwqk first up - many thanks for building Oracolo .. It is very responsive and delivers options to configure the blog the way a publisher wants ..
As regards to my point on publishing threads with lot engagement (fifty plus comments) .. the thread soon becomes unreadable because the comments are squeezed in the hierarchy .. Please take a look at
https://www.shutri.com/#1259013a90a735162c20aa28c33cac5ebb88ba07dc0e23712e007e816cdf9542
It becomes unreadable after few comments on mobile phones . Even on a laptop .. it gets harder and harder to read as we go down the nest ..
Is there a way to keep the interaction aligned ?
Happy you like Oracolo!
I use an external lib to render the comments section, so I cannot easily tweak it.
I will try to open an issues in the original repo (I don't remember the name right now) but I think it's a quite hard problem to fix, it would require a completely UI/UX redesign.
Unfixable?
When working with an agent the first prompt should be: "create a new commit after each update". So you can easily inspect every diff and rollback.

They are late for the April Fool's.
I hope.
This tip is excellent, helps me remember well. My speed is not great for nonfiction as I’m more of a visual-dominant reader. Had likely 1.5 months headstart compared to nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqyehwumn8ghj7mnhvvh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7ctewe4xcetfd3khsvrpdsmk5vnsw96rydr3v4jrz73hvyu8xqpqsg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q8dzj6n this year, so abt 40% slower. But good motivation to try and keep up.
Btw seeing emoji reactions on primal. Are these new on Nostr ?
> Btw seeing emoji reactions on primal. Are these new on Nostr ?
They always existed (kind:7 doesn't accept only + and -), but I suspect Primal used to support only a subset.
> a tip for comprehension and retention
A really good idea.
I actually noticed that sometime my retention is low, and this can definitely spot gray areas.
I have to inspect also how time of reading affects this.
Welcome!!! Please share some painting and animation asap, we are curious :)
Timestamped, #nopatent 😂
Why phones don't automatically increase the brightness when you wear sunglasses? It's useful and it seems a trivial face recognition pattern.
Based on personal experience, I absolutely agree with this:
Figma’s not a design tool — it’s a Rube Goldberg machine for avoiding code
You know, I'm for advertising the relay concept as much as possibile, but sometimes we have to choose a priority. Someone who is searching for a new home for their group is not left with nothing, but with a clear path on how to build that home.
> different client -- not Chachi or Flotilla
They both can have a setup flag to manage a single relay, when self hosted.
> After using groups in this single space flow for a while users could transit to the more featured clients.
This is exactly my proposal.
If you are stuck with VSCode and Vim is not yet on your plate, https://zed.dev is quite good.
Definitely a necessary piece in Nostr's puzzle, bravo!
voca v0.0.6 is released!
This release fine tunes the release process and makes publishing to nostr:nprofile1qqs83nn04fezvsu89p8xg7axjwye2u67errat3dx2um725fs7qnrqlgzqtdq0 a lot easier.
There are also continuous improvements to initializing the text to speech engine for a faster startup.
We're laying the groundwork for some major features in the upcoming releases, stay tuned!
Something broke:

Really, thanks for sharing.
If you are using Oracolo with your own domain, share it; I need some examples for the project readme.
Things are a little more complex. When you select some people, their contacts are merged, randomly shuffled and then capped to 500 (too avoid a too long list). So I cannot just show the count; with one or two contacts, the max is already reached, and the user would find the thing weird. I could find out an alternative way (e.g. 100 random contacts per user), but I don't think we have any big blocking issue here (indeed, giving the count might raise doubts about who to select and so create friction), and anyway it is temporary.
Interesting sharing.
And are you monitoring what resources chatgpt scraps, and how are they used?
Finanziare il terrorismo con la PostePay e prelievi da €250/giorno, sembra una barzelletta.
I agree, npub as canonical reference is fine. User needs consistency. We cannot expect that a user to pick and paste a "correct" (updated) nprofile when mentioning, it's a client job to built it using the last outbox settings.
Clients render the name anyway, or they should fallback to the npub if that is missing.
So the client could also automatically correct the user input if relay hints are unavailable, but this is a slippery slope that can have unwanted consequences and should be managed carefully.
And grateful to those who allow them to work in a focused way, thank you nostr:nprofile1qqs8suecw4luyht9ekff89x4uacneapk8r5dyk0gmn6uwwurf6u9ruspzpmhxue69uhkumewwd68ytnrwghszxthwden5te0wfjkccte9eekummjwsh8xmmrd9skctcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhs2juazd and all donors, nostr:nprofile1qqsgydql3q4ka27d9wnlrmus4tvkrnc8ftc4h8h5fgyln54gl0a7dgsprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qy28wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hszrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqc267ea in the first place.
Well, I double checked, actually they just ask you to do a "light" breakfast avoiding milk, yogurt, fat aliments and chocolate. And you should drink plenty of water, the previous day as well.
I remembered wrongly since they always insist to take ample advantage of breakfast. Last time the lady (at the reception there are volunteers) before going put two chocolate bars in my pocket because I had not taken a brioche 😂
People like and talk about rss readers because they have a paradigm and user interface that allow the user to granularly control the information, not the other way around.
The specificities of an RSS feed are basically twofold: to organise the contents of individual sources in a personal hierarchical structure, and to make it possible to distinguish what has already been read from what is still to be read.
This is quite aligned with the ethos of Nostr, so a convergence seems very plausible and necessary.
Unfortunately, Nostr's developers don't much like lists and similar structures, all preferring the approach of a huge, monolithic feed, where the read status is impossible to manage.
They are so adverse to this approach that practically no clients have a dedicated section for the long format in the user profile!
So asking the rss developers to integrate Nostr might be a good plan to bring in some fresh air. This could also encourage more users to use Nostr for blogging.
Cool, just what I was envisioning for abandoning Obsidian, Joplin, and Logseq.
While everyone is getting nervous about spam, say hello to Chronicle!
https://github.com/dtonon/chronicle
Chronicle is Nostr personal relay, built on the Khatru framework, that stores complete conversations in which the owner has taken part and nothing else: pure signal.
This is possible since writing is limited to the threads in which the owner has partecipated (either as an original poster or with a reply/zap/reaction), and only to his trusted network (WoT), to protect against spam.
Chronicle fits well in the Outbox model, so you can use it as your read/write relay, and it also automatically becomes a space-efficient backup relay.
Try it out, and let me know if you find it useful and how it can be improved!
