It happened to nostr:npub18q57qr3t07qljnapzqldaqa7ru2qwfpfnjdrwvhk327n3sc82f0qqwrs6f, creators of nostr:npub1mea2vwcu06qf7e4x00wd902vj54qnn2jacq76ldntrgfhtvhlpqqrvqane
It's happened to others.
You're next. It's only a matter of time. Bitcoin fixes this.
Some clients (amethyst in this case) shows a generic heart, but if you expand you can see all the reactions.
So it I think at a protocol-level, (all) reactions are built-in (whether it's an emoji, or even a GIF), it just depends on how some clients display them. See below.
I'm using a self-hosted version but pretty sure it's up-to-date.
I see a "reaction" button instead of a like/dislike. Check under Settings, you should have Quick Reactions, and you can edit these. It's possible the Like/Dislike are just your preset ones.
I'm sure there's some client-side limitations, but across noStrudel , Amethyst and 0xchat, all reactions show as expected.
I said it's not as decentralized which is factual. There is a difference.
Please point out where I instigated fud by stating it is "centralized".
Absolutely correct. Even so, cryptography as something you HAVE/KNOW however, gives a much higher degree of verifiability than a centralized and administered database.
They're testing to be dependent on other thresholds.
Carbon footprint, credit score, how much healthy food you've had (can't have too much!) etc 😅
No excuse to not run your own node at this point.
If you don't allow custody of your Bitcoin, you shouldn't allow custody of your sats given the current solutions that are out there.
I see so many juicy targets here.
I run my own nodes and use their functionality everyday.
Is it a perfect experience? No, but that's why we build on it.
A solution to challenges imposed on the finality layer needn't be perfect from the get-go.
I've heard no one suggest Lightning to be the only scaling solution either, but you act like that's fact.
Truth of the matter though, is that the foundation is sound. That's where you want to build the most regardless of the challenge based on the foundation's constraints, because no other project will achieve what it has achieved - It was a happy accident.
The state very much has a problem with BTC, it just can't do anything about that and we've seen this across the years. When a move is futile against your opponent, you don't expend the energy - You find other ways to attack.
Either way, stick to your monero, because Time will tell.
The moment one of us swaps Bitcoin for monero or vice-versa, we'll know what that means.
Odell is talking about the lack of cryptographic ownership and thus, verifiability.
You can't prove a tweet was sent by whoever you think sent it.
On centralized platforms, the companies in charge tend to have either bespoke backdoors, or are downright able to modify and insert tweets via queries against their SQL database (as an example).
In contrast, nostr works with keypairs, where at first stance, only the owner holds the private key, hence only they are able to post on their profile.
Taxation without representation.
Well played.
It's like a frickin' epidemic these days.
Seeing all the monero peeps out these days is just so par for the course - Limitations of Bitcoin are vocalized and suddenly someone has ALL the solutions at the settlement layer with no trade-offs. It's PERFECT! And yet....
It's not as decentralized - You can't recreate Bitcoin's level of decentralization.
It's not as secure - You don't have as much energy backing it.
XMR makes a ton of elements confidential to provide privacy, but security through obscurity isn't security at all.
And with that, you've lost your entire foundation with which to build upon.
Best be aware of Bitcoin's limitations (by design), understand them, and build from there.
For a moment, think about how ironic it is that Monero users are taking sats over lightning.
2/2
I thought NIP-61 was mainly about user A being able to know in advance what mints user B prefers.
Perhaps I'm misundertsanding, but if user A using mint a sends a nutzap to user B in mint b, there's essentially still a swap that happens over lightning. For user A to mint a token at mint b, they either have to already have sats there, or send them over LN.
You're assuming everyone would use the same handful of mints though, right?
Good resource ^
Is it really still okay to push people towards custodial services for nostr authentication?
Because I thought the norm was "Don't you people have phones?" - Just install an app that holds the keys for you and you're allowed to sign/reject events.
NIP-46 needs to become the new standard, fast.
People are much more comfortable with me telling them to install an app that stores their identity, than a browser extension that stores their identity...
I mean, people don't even bother with an adblocker, let alone a nostr-event-signer.
