NostrOP now has initial support for lightning zaps (NIP-57). It's WIP but preview is going live in a few minutes.

As usual, VSCode sucking up my ressources ...
Maybe it's time to look elsewhere.

I don't think anyone can be open minded like you mean it; It's impossible. By the time you form your first concious thoughts, you're on top of so many layers of abstractions and impressions.
Whatever we consider "open minded", might just be 0.001 degree flexibility / 100.
Yeah, like Tor, Bitcoin and Nostr ;)
This story being true or not, please internalize this; The state will not let us have mobile encrypted comms. period. (BIS was the last victim.)
Phones are all remote ownd.
We need simpler, p2p devices for sensitive conversations.

Probably used an Apple Shitcoin with iCloud Backup.
I really, really want to do IPFS for image uploads, but I'm afraid 99% of users will end-up using a http proxy. Even sharing your own files (initially) may be tricky, due to Firewall / NAT.
I made the NostrOP UI a little more tight; Some initial work on inline-responses. Much left to do... I'm happy about how responsive it is, on my 5+ year old Android.




I'd say this applies to everything; If you don't care (time, thought, money, pain, ... invested) about XYZ, you're indifferent to what happens to it.
Today, Apple could brand Nostr a right-wing / covid-denier / child-porn / ... network, and do a rug-pull on all users with iCloud backups. Nobody would give a shit.
Try Little Snitch, or do a traffic dump.
Be amazed.
That's because you haven't "bought" into their idiology. Get it? ;)
Some people take "going with the flow" to literal.
I have an iPhone for development purposes; Almost every time I update the device, I have to agree to a new 1000 page agreement - How does anyone in this community use Apple products?

If you leverage Bitcoin, you get to spend Bitcoin, on buying more Bitcoin.
Would that be something that improves ones life?
iPhone 15 teaser video. Absolutely groundbreaking technology from Apple.

Wow, it has a camera and USB? Fu** me!
Yes, that may be.
That's true; Mastodon is also much more established.
Either way, we need better content.
By repeating to the same people, how it fixes everything?
