Gia Kuan's Rules To Live By:
1. Always treat others as you'd like to be treated.
2. Always eat well and nourish your body and soul. You are what you eat!
3. Always stay calm and carry on—be cool about it.
4. Always push yourself a little out of your comfort zone, only then do you learn and progress.
5. Always listen before you speak. Easier said than done. You'd be surprised how many conversations go awry from lousy communication and speaking or acting in haste without observation.
6. Always travel as much as you can—continue to see more, experience more, gain perspective. Stay curious.
7. Never panic. When a leader loses their cool, the rest can just turn into a crumbling mess. People channel off your energy, and if you're not together it will only panic others.
8. Never hold grudges, life is a little too short for that.
9. Never try to overcomplicate things; the solution is often more simple than you think.
10. Never develop a big ego, it only becomes a projection of insecurities.
11. Never be late if you can prevent it; time is gold. No one likes to be treated like their time doesn't matter.
12. Never be a follower, period.

Happy for you. 🤙🏼
Never mind that. I just figured out how to make my current nostr app to not pre-load media. Nice
For the curious, great non-technical Introduction to Nostr.
Thanks nostr:npub15fqz6j040ggt4m0m5jdyzu3dz5a57xdnegxn6mykffnh8qmp57rs72w2wl for this 🙌
What one sees in the feed / timeline depends on the people she/he follows. There are enough users who post other topics, so one is not stuck with crypto topics. I groom my follow list and my feed / timeline reflects that. I think this is similar in fediverse.
The experience in nostr vary from app to app and the relay choices can skew the feed also. On the app side, masto and pixelfed apps are more consistent, more performant, and more stable at the moment. But nostr apps are progressing at a good pace.
I do not know how it happened; my “follow” list accidentally got wiped clean in nostr earlier today. 🤙🏼 Not the end of the world. Chill.
Good cheerful 😃 morning
Hey welcome. I’m here to learn and to meet people
### Defederated Mostr?
Something I’ve been wondering for a while is what will happen when nostr’s style of reports and moderation meet up with the fediverse server / defederation model.
Well a couple days ago i went go follow somebody in nos.social who’s a fediverse user. Nos now supports just direct putting in @user@fediverse.server style names which it translates to a nip-05 at mostr.pub as a gateway. It works really well, most of the time, now i can just follow and interact with anybody on the fediverse from nostr. Amazing.
But this user didnt’ come up. So i started digging and eventually found a service that lets you look up a fediverse server and see which other servers have defederated them.
In the case of mostr.pub, there’s been a bunch:
https://fba.ryona.agency/?domain=mostr.pub The reasons fediverse admins give for defederating are interesting and worth noting.
Most common is that mostr.pub isn’t respecting user/content reports from the fediverse and doesn’t moderate or take down content. Most fediverse servers are pretty active about looking at content reports and takedown requests, most nostr relay operators are not. So this isn’t a surprise. But a gateway which would be able to reach a broader section of the fediverse, or different parts of it for nostr users, would need to look at and respond to reports.
The next thing, is that all nostr content is made available through the gateway, similar to the first, there is not registration process like we have with permissioned or paid relays. It’s a fat pipe, and folks in the fediverse don’t like that. Feels like spam to them.
Related, some folks blocked it because they saw porn, right wing, homophobic, racist, or hate speech coming from nostr in to the fediverse. Honestly, I’ve seen way more go the other direction, coming from the fediverse via mostr in to nostr, but these folks probably are going to defederate anything that isn’t tighly controlled. Just like fediverse admins who block tons of sites and won’t federate with Threads.
Another set of defederation comes from crypto. Some fediverse communities are very anti-crypto and feel there’s lots of pro-crypto content coming from Nostr. I don’t see folks with this attitude wanting to federate with any gateway to nostr, but i could imagine a nostr relay and gateway which was only no-coiners which would be accepted. Meh, fine. These folks aren’t going to be convinced by anything we do on the nostr end. Then there is a funny category, servers who defederate mostr.pub just because Alex is involved with it! Again, there’s nothing we could do about them. One person even gave the defederation reason as: “Sex with Alex Gleason :heart_eyes:”
Lastly, one server blocked mostr because you can create AI generated content on Nostr… interesting… but again.. not much to do about that.
I think the solution is to be able to have something bridges the fediverse and nostr ways of doing things. I think nostr:npub108pv4cg5ag52nq082kd5leu9ffrn2gdg6g4xdwatn73y36uzplmq9uyev6 is actually working on this with ditto. If we had multiple gateways, like we have multiple relays, then we could impliment different rules on those bridges. That would both be compatible with the nostr way of things, put your content multiple places, and each user & relay can decide what they want to host and see. And it’d also be compatible with the fediverse norms. Thanks for reading my little exploration in to nostr and the mostr.pub fediverse gateway.
Nos.social can do that? Cool.
Welcome. Glad to have you.
IF anyone is developing a nostr client for the terminal (macOS compatible), I would sign up as an alpha user.
Media? I would be content with a clickable url that opens in default browser. And since profile picture is not visible (coz media is just url), then nostr address / NIP-05 will be very helpful. Single binary install would be nice. Switchable dark / light background? Fancy but I’ll take it.
Obviously this will not attract very many users. But it sounds interesting to me.
Pretty ❤️
Hello beautiful community,
I'm a #new #nostrosaurus invited here by the illustrious #human #artist -
nostr:npub1jac0kj928psa6wf7hpt7ws8jmah33c826sa668fsce09cxvzqznqprc8yd
I thought I'd write something large and unwieldy to introduce myself and my 'mission' for this place.. but I think a #poem shall suffice:
a box
a screen
she hawks
he screams:
"let out my heart,
let go my feet,
please let me rest!
I
need to see it"
a single tear
from her left eye
a muted look
a painted sky
i see the birds
i hear the trees
still someone here
please dear, just
Breathe
We'll see bright commas on the dark
A single dot to make all light
Your line is precious
I adore You
Please darling - Breathe
And life shall show
You.
gn
Nice. And welcome!
Take your time. nostr is not going anywhere 🤙🏼

I need changes.Part 2.
Reporting from my home.Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine
If you know how to help me with the words, ideas , please share it.
If I can do something to bring the peace to the civilians (who I’m rn) and soldiers who are fighting for independence of Ukraine now .. what actually do ? ( I’ll answer how I know it :to calm down and keep going to create #loveart #futureart )
10:13 #Morning
This is the video of how I don’t want to look anymore. I want to cry from happiness and the beauty of my art from now on.
I just want to leave it here for us to understand that it’s really hard to keep your mind okay in the war’s surroundings, but how important it is for me to be here and hear one day, ‘We are free to live our lives in our land, and Russia has returned to every country all the territories they took by force.

Hello. I do not know how to comfort you but I hear you and see you. I pray that the war will end soon and that peace will be restored.
