Still trying to work out exactly what happened, but seemingly you had to run that javascript file thinking you were copying an npub which I guess graf and sjw did? There's something significantly more concerning to me in the alog space page anyway that I'm not going to comment on. Will wait for the farmers to dissect everything on me behalf.

The leak hurts nostr. People who blocked the bridge will feel justified in having done so (even if it potentially wouldn't have saved them) and others may think blocking the bridge will save them in future.

These people are getting into literal cargo cult territory.

my bluebird app #blocked list:

It feels like every month or two they do something else to make everyone rage at it, I still use it though since I can't customize any other browser as much as this one.

Apparently Graf was crying about all of us in his DMs.

Glad we made a difference on his life.

>"Independent voices can change culture."

>I have no idea what that sentence means! What does 'changing culture' have to do with a Web browser, let alone color themes? Mozilla is a tech corporation, isn't it? But they're trying to change culture? That's concerning. I unwittingly aligning myself with some kind of political agenda, here? In what way are you aiming to change culture? What if I don't agree with your values? Should I stop using your browser? Bringing divisive politics into what is supposed to be a simple computer utility is needlessly alienating and jarring to users.

NGL stuff like this is why I didn't want to join someone elses server after mine went down. Joining someones fedi server means I'm carrying all their extra baggage too for better or worst.

oh. now that is kind of a big deal.

isn’t there always one?

One tap zaps needs lighting bolts that come down from the sky and strikes the button during zapathons

Have you ever seen the video of Bill Gates jumping over a chair that he did for a reporter because he thought it made him look cool? This is what happens when severely autistic people don't have someone telling them "Don't do that in public".

I'm not basing this on stats or logic. Just a gut feeling and BlueSky capturing all the attention which was dispersed around other twitter alternatives. Although some people have pointed to stats on nostr band. I haven't looked closely enough. I also think it will be revived after abandonment tho. Also based on nothing lol. I'll try to stick around for all of it lolol. I saw it in a dream.

Might as well have Faketoshi be next year's headliner at this point; Bitcoin Mag is a fucking joke.

Just don't use a web chat client, and you'll be good. Otherwise, expect to refollow everyone you had in your following list.

Even though it took me way too long to get onto here I wouldn't be too worried. In my layman's opinion nostr just needs more niche groups to realize it's a worthwhile protocol to use. Mastodon and activity pub were extremely niche for a long time, it took Elon taking over twitter to start the massive shift. I foresee something stupid happening with activity pub (specifically mastodon doing something) then more people will either join here or bluesky.

Also AP servers do have something that nostr kind of doesn't: A sense of community with federated servers, and users on your own server. Personally that never bothered me I only used single user instances, but I imagine that a lot of people like having that.

IDK. Kind of rambling here, but my final note is that I think the best part of nostr has to be the private key / public key authentication. I dream of more services doing this it's just such a based way to handle accounts. That concept might be another barrier though for some users.

I'm a simple man. I see a relay show up in my networks tab, I add and save it immediately. Anyone else /relaymaxxing/?
