We seem to have missed one of our own milestones recently…
As of Nodestrich’s third birthday just a few days ago, we now rank third out of all nostr:npub19tcpurtt6xulhw0r6sc404j9jraj0h8me2lzs7z2tqewz7l0hpas59nlea communities!
(It also appears that Amboss has been doing some housekeeping and weeding out dead nodes.)
That’s all Nostriches, building and joining one by one.
Keep going! 🔥

Welcome. 🙏
Our group is here:
nostr:npub19tcpurtt6xulhw0r6sc404j9jraj0h8me2lzs7z2tqewz7l0hpas59nlea: https://nodestrich.com
Hard to believe, but #Nodestrich is entering its third year!
We started in January 2023 as an experiment to find all the noderunners and would-be noderunners on #Nostr, and give them a place to learn and connect.
We’re thrilled to have so many on board, and there’s always room for more.
Check out our TG group or nostr:npub19tcpurtt6xulhw0r6sc404j9jraj0h8me2lzs7z2tqewz7l0hpas59nlea community page to learn more.

Yes. 
Stop trying to make sats bitcoins. It’s not going to happen.

(Finally) watching Civil War.
Kicking it in a hotel room with my best friend, with pizza and beer en route.
Playing around with Alby Hub, learning more about Lightning channels and seeing if I can’t open new channels to my own BitKit wallet and others (maybe Zeus) if I’m able.
Life does not get better than this.
PS: is there a non-Telegram chat space for the nostr:npub1hxfkcs9gvtm49702rmwn2aeuvhkd2w6f0svm4sl84g8glhzx5u9srk5p6t frens? Cc nostr:npub1aeh2zw4elewy5682lxc6xnlqzjnxksq303gwu2npfaxd49vmde6qcq4nwx
PPS: thought I asked this a few days ago but can’t find it in my notifications. Blame the replyguys 🤷♂️
Not yet, it’s hard to migrate a whole community. Telegram is a mess, but it serves a purpose. If a true Nostr-based alternative emerges, we’d use it, but then we would still have to manage parallel chat groups for a while.
We did it! Number four! 🙌🔥

We are just two nodes away from taking 4th place on the nostr:npub19tcpurtt6xulhw0r6sc404j9jraj0h8me2lzs7z2tqewz7l0hpas59nlea community list. If you’re a member of nostr:npub1hxfkcs9gvtm49702rmwn2aeuvhkd2w6f0svm4sl84g8glhzx5u9srk5p6t please login and approve any pending requests you see.
Not a member? We'd love to have you join us!
This is why we node.

If this can accomplish the goal of becoming a true Telegram replacement, the Nodestrich group will adopt it. We always wanted our group to be Nostr-only, but the tools to communicate effectively as a group didn’t exist at the time.

I’m now officially a “Node Runner”!
By running my own node, I help make the game:
More decentralized.
More secure.
More private (self-sufficient).
More efficient.
I don’t trust, I verify, hence more integrity.
More of the people, by the people.
Thx to everyone who helped me level up, including our conversation - nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe 🙏🏻 very grateful!

At your service! 💜♾️
It does feel like that sometimes.

If you lose internet connectivity would, can that force-close a Lightning channel? Or would the node simply be offline..?

No, your channel can be offline indefinitely. The other party can force close while you’re down, though.
