While I'm sharing a wish list: a way to render a full thread. I'll manually paste in the note ids if needed.
Also needs an image, and to drop the 'short text note ...' header. Header shouldprobably say "Sjors Provoost on Nostr'
Bonus points for shortening the URL, e.g. to 10 characters. Later duplicates would have 11+ chars.
Nice! Having a search button would be useful there. Although copy-pasting note id in the url works too it's tedious on mobile. It's easier to search for my profile by name and then pick the post I want to share.
Had to repost because the link was broken. Amethyst does something funky on my Pixel with GrapheneOS. If I type after pasting a link it seems to delete character from it. Similar to how it deletes the space *before* each word whenever I try to edit it.
To whomever built snort . social. Can you add social media previews? When I share a post on e.g. WhatsApp I'd like folks to see my picture (not because it's amazing, but so they know it's me) and the message itself.
Before boarding plane, carefully check the full passenger list.
Check the code not the person. Nice people who share your belief system can also rug your nsec.
It's also interesting that the indictment doesn't have a date on it. It starts out with references to "up to and including at least on or about August 8, 2022"
Is that because they considered Tornado cash dead the moment OFAC hit it? Or did they hold it sealed waiting for this to settle:

Just needed an excuse to test the Mostr bridge :-)
I'm reading the thing now. Curious why Pertsev isn't named (co-founder 3, arrested here in The Netherlands last year and current under house/country arrest).
Still happening. It would be nice if there was a way to get more detailed error codes / messages.
"They" being the defendants? :-)
Still have to read this, but the most suspicious part is: why is Pertsev not named? It's not like the US doesn't know he's being prosecuted in The Netherlands.
Anyway, that proposed bill, maybe nostr:npub1xgnw5yrcghhj5c5gufjhp46l5dlfum8d9l5gjn2r64r78kt79eyqarnp4u knowns more about it, probably only addresses the _prejudice_ issue. It won't change the compliance de-risking incentives.
Also hilariously the Hachyderm instance openly discriminates against sex workers. But they're woke, so it's all ok!

Lol, I'm being the ultimate reply-guy here, since it looks like Hachyderm is one of those safe space that block the Mostr bridge.
If it's any comfort, I suspect non-sex industry workers who rely on tips will also start losing bank accounts soon enough.
> The reason is almost never made clear, but sex workers suspect that financial institutions fear reputational damage and liability for the facilitation of money laundering or sex trafficking.
This is nonsense. It's about minimising compliance costs. If a Stasi - ahum, compliance - officer needs to spend hours every year reviewing the source of every tip these people receive, it costs more than the bank will make from the customer. So it's cheaper to just ditch the industry. This will get a lot worse before it gets better.
The crypto industry has the exact same problem of course, which is why it's a terrible idea to use exchanges. Now the compliance officer needs to check both the source of the tips AND whatever extra rules apply for crypto payments.
This will get a lot worse before it gets any better.
(Nostr really needs an edit button :-)
don't -> don't get
than -> then
"now exchanges are dumping them too" is rather misleading. You don't permisionlessness when using a permissioned system.
Other than that: it's up to them. If they think reforming banks is easier than learning some skills to use Bitcoin properly, than good for them.
