If you haven’t used the word “oophorectomy” in a sentence today, then we are not the same.

Folks over on X are having a difficult time understanding why I’m focusing my efforts on #nostr.

Here’s why:

You can run nostr-relay-tray on your computer and use ngrok for reverse proxy. Set up some rules to only accept events from you and your friends. This way, you'll have a relay that only stores events from you and your friends.

Externally-hosted relays add value to #Nostr because

* they allow you to create a virtual, personalized space,

* they give companies an easy way to gain a professionally-managed relay or mirror,

* and they allow people in more restrictive jurisdictions to have a relay elsewhere.

That said, hosting a relay on your own machine adds value by expanding the number of physical computers hosting a relay and the number of persons who are relay admins. That aids censorship resistence and network resilience.

I don't have that many followers, so my stuff doesn't get a lot of reactions.

"little tech" is actually a thing?

Hi.

Everyone developing on Nostr, who isn't completely self-funded or subscription-funded, has a Nostr boss. What Nostr allows, is for us all to have different Nostr bosses, or to even be our own Nostr boss.

That is what there being "No Nostr CEO" allows for: No single point of employer failure.

That is a massive tactical advantage!

This doesn't work, if we all cluster under the same employer. Then people really can shut down Nostr by attacking the boss. Then people really can influence the direction of the protocol by talking to the boss.

Few.

If you already have the skill set, try it and see!

If I may suggest, posting your resulting financial statements would be valuable to Nostr as an ecosystem.

I see people complaining of why #nostr has so many shitcoiners, and other things not related to what they’re use to seeing here.

Here is the thing, that’s a good thing, it means that the protocol is growing in content and different kinds of folk.

If you continue to see content that YOU don’t like then you’re following the wrong npubs. The fact that diversity is introduced into the protocol should be considered a good thing, no matter if you agree with it or not.

Of course, what did you expect from a permissionless protocol after all? Your echo chamber will be broken, if you so choose to. That’s the beauty, you have the choice to say no because you create your feed.

A complain about people complaining gotta give you an idea

Maybe you don’t feel threatened personally but I think Nick is talking about humanity as a whole.

Make bitcoiners anarchists again 😑
