Prepping design-link...

(not in code yet to be clear)

Yes:

1. Group chats (i.e. Communities when publicly readable) are the one thing creators can easily monetize on an open protocol. Because there's actual scarcity.

2. Time-based subscription payments don't make sense on Bitcoin 👉 Pay per use 👉 eCash price list

Wait, I'm not sure I'm getting this.

So I have this mailbox 📫 and I have pay for the stuff that people send to it? 🙃

Still in design phase. Making the big UX mistakes on paper (while the necessary tech is coming together in the background). So please go ahead and critique this stuff like a mad man 🙏 .

It's very funny (and scary tbh) that this makes more sense than most interpretations. The whole "taking it literally" thing is mind blowing.

Noah literally building a bad ass ark and riding it on the most insane storm.

Maria birthing a son of angels that does space-travel.

Freakin' legendary.

Opens up an entire sector for magazine and book readers.

nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc was talking about a reading apps like Readwise, but you could also make something to rate books like Goodreads, or to write and publish books like Adobe, or an ePaper viewer for Nostr 30023/30040 notes, so that someone could download the note and all of the first and second-level links or embedded items to their cache or local relay/database, to view them offline. Of course, eMagazines and eNewspapers. Etc.

Yep, text-based media is so perfect for these offline use cases since the cost of downloading annex-stuff is relatively low.

Seems like the soft- and hardware (nostr:npub1a00wj229auzjswlq4s77y4u8eqdx5k9ppatgl8rtv8va65f6mwksum9q3h ) are coming together for a pretty great homeschool experience for my kids 🤩 .

Liminal is from the natural sciences, so he was inspired by this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zettelkasten

They're the basis for wikis, but wikis don't have stable content, so they're actually a different thing. The content of zettel isn't supposed to vary wildly or change 5 times per day. It's something you write down and keep, to use and rearrange later, like snippets cut out of paper.

Yes! Good on point on the difference between snippets of source material vs linking to variable wikis. Noted! ✍️

(Reminds me of the book "Lila" by Robert Pirsig, where the main character Phaedrus uses a similar system of slips to organize his thoughts into a book)

1. Copy Link

2. Paste in highlighter's search bar

3. Make highlights

4. Cross your fingers this the 1 out 5 times it publishes those highlights

Can't wait for some specialized tool for web. (highlighter plug in doesn't work for me)

Do you have any UI benchmarks you like (or just know of) for these kinds of modular articles / books?

Trying to wrap my mind around how to handle all that source referencing, switching versions, opening wikis etc...

No problem sir, highlighting out of pure self-interest here.
