Hmm, you do have good insights. Some of these statements I agree with, others are pushing it.
The first paragraph on trump I accept your arguments. I'm just not pushing that as "the sole truth", as the arguments against it are logical as well. Trump certainly picked deep state people in his cabinet/staff.
As far as the deliberate decline of the US empire, I disagree with. In fact, I think most war/coups in the Middle East, South America, and even other places has been over the forced sale of oil in US dollars. And actually Wikileaks has been some of the sources we've backed these claims up with. (such as Libya)
But even without Wikileaks, Iraq's timing and Venezuela coups are great examples of "sell oil in USD or die"
I agree with you that they want one world government, but I think the path towards that is dominance of the petrodollar empire & IMF/World Bank.
In a huge Supreme Court decision on Wednesday,
The court ruled 6-3 that the Biden administration didn’t do anything wrong when asking social media companies to remove posts of covid “misinformation”. This had previously gone the other way in the lower courts, favoring the censored victims.
As State sponsored propaganda outlets like NPR puppet the narrative that “there was no proof” in the Twitter Files,
The real clue comes from Jack Dorsey abandoning not only Twitter, but also leaving top-down controlled BlueSky’s board, to come to Nostr.
Government: There is no pressure to censor
Twitter CEO: I must flee to Nostr where I can’t be held accountable
These are solid arguements as well. I don't have all the answers man. However keep in mind the effects of some of these wikileaks, such as Arab Spring kicking out Pro-US puppets, or Hillary Clinton losing the election, or Citibank picking obama's cabinet being exposed
I can not speak for the SimpleX dev on this, but nostr:npub1m5s9w4t03znyetxswhgq0ud7fq8ef8y3l4kscn2e8wkvmv42hh3qujgjl3 may potentially have a comment on grin with chat
Comments posted by Vidar in the group chat, quote:
I agree it makes Zero sense to you or me. Though I can guess some potential motivating factors:
Assange public supporters aren't going down in numbers. I would guestimate there are more supporters now than 10 years ago, and there would have been more demonstrations. Growing public outrage.
The Deep State trying to make it look good for Biden before election. *See links
The USA prosecutors could see that their case was weakening as time continued, and they offered Assange a simple guilty plea Today, rather than lose the case completely after another 5 years.

hey nostr:npub1g7lqk25fl24xd0zh7hr8jgp5smdy2eszjh9nmv7z7w85h6xcs9hq4u8yd9 it was a group Q&A in our simpleX chat. I think me and you spoke in there earlier about IPFS not scaling. And you were correct it does not. I do still think there are some limited use cases and benefits to it, but IPFS will not be the mass adoption future at least in it's current form, I agree
Very cool! Flatpak support is exciting! Will nostr:nprofile1qqsvnx99ww0sfall7gpv2jtz4ftc9v6wevgdd7g4hh7awkpfvwlezugpydmhxue69uhkv6tvw3jhytnwdaehgu3wwa5kuef08ankcmmzv9kr6ctvdsxsudu2 become a "verified" developer on Flathub? Signal, LibreWolf, Bitwarden - none of these essential applications are verified on Flathub which is a bummer, and why I stick to using the rpms direct from dev
Signal has a flatpak. In fact, you can use the official distro repo AND flatpak for two identities
flatpak install flathub org.signal.Signal
it will add to your start menu, but also could do:
flatpak run org.signal.Signal
Because bitcoin has no binding contract functionality to enforce or do anything
Huge thanks to SimpleX's developer for coming through for the event!
Here's what he shared with us about the future of nostr:npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828:
-Moving off Github this year
-Flatpak support is coming very soon, like 1 week
-iPad Support this year
-Group chat on-board with 2-3 other users will eliminate the need for the admin to be online
-Will be getting rid of the "connecting" on initial sync and increase speed of on-boarding
With the new feature to hide IPs, the user is first sending it to a server they trust, which passes it to the other server. How do users know who to trust?
The app will soon be able to differentiate infrastructure operators in these ways:
-several preset providers in the app next year
-operators can self-identify with certs, it's optional - this year
-using servers of people you are friends with or know - very soon
-A user asked about a directory - but it is not coming due to privacy and trust concerns it would create
To make the network financially sustainable and provide the commercial incentive to the operators they are designing the concept of "infrastructure vouchers" that are planned for 2026.
These vouchers will:
-Will be on a private blockchain maintained by the approved operators together with the app developer(s)
-Work like gift cards, except:
-Vouchers won't be transferable from 1 user to another
-No refunds
-No wallet
-Stays in-app
-Can't be used as external money to avoid compliance requirements
-One can buy vouchers with Monero (or other cryptocurrencies), as long as XMR remains legal
-Government fiat can be used
-Voucher sellers may be different than server operators (collectors)
-It won't be just the SimpleX team selling vouchers, some decentralization
Here's more details on his commercial model:

I did not say he deserves it?
My arguement from before was less so that the hater would be killed, but more so that he was literally working for the US military while he was actively "exposing" their psy-op. Can we agree this is a little off?
Assange is alive because the whole world is watching and the blowback that illegally killing him would create.
Also the CIA wanted to kill him according to some of his leaks, after he did the one showing their hacking of routers and killing via remote car shut offs.
The big news is he said flatpak is coming soon, like 1 week. Regarding the battery said:
“We do something that reduces battery usage in almost every release - 5.8 had a notable improvement, and 6.0 will have it too. Battery usage is not one big thing to work on, it's many small things each contributing a little bit. User-visible server stats will also ship in 6.0 - it'll help a lot identifying battery drains.”
Q&A with Lead dev of SimpleX starting right now:
Yes and we are selling them at discount rates. far below Google's retail. please DM me or check previous posts
Did you know on Signal, your deleted messages aren’t deleted?
Don’t believe me? Cut Signal’s network permission on Android. And go a long time with using it on desktop with disappearing messages on. Then re-sync Android with network permission, and boy you’ll be shocked to see those messages flash back before your eyes! They’re still on Amazon’s centralized servers even though they took it off your device.
This is even sadder when you think about how in centralized systems, it’s easier to force messages out. But with decentralized systems, there’s issues.
SimpleX has unique plans to force messages to disappear on the other person’s device, but how’s he gonna implement it? These are the types of questions to ask and hear at tomorrow’s event.
(if you live in Asia, it’s tonight)
