I think I’ve successfully orange pulled my close friend.

I showed her how to set up a wallet, explained what #lightning is and sent her some #sats . Another Bitcoiner onboard?

It's Thursday afternoon. That means a Zapathon is coming in just a couple hours. What are Zapathons?

Zapathons are unofficial events that happen on nostr which consist of rapidly Zapping as much sats or as many people as possible. The main focus of the event is to have fun all the while stress testing many Lightning wallets and clients across the nostr protocol.

While Zapathons can occur at any time throughout the day and throughout the week - they can be completely random - most Zapathons happen on Thursday and Friday at 5pm Eastern Standard Time.

You'll find hundreds of people Zapping every single note they come across or they'll be targeting specific notes or even targeting specific individuals. (Zap the devs!) You'll see memes and animated GIFs flooding your main feed as everyone celebrates, produces content to be Zapped, and wants to partake in the fun and excitement.

Some Nostriches like to hold their best memes, GIFs, or even announcements for Zapathons. Posting your content during a Zapathon could mean a healthy boost of eyeballs and Zaps for your note.

All you need to do to participate is have a Bitcoin Lighting wallet and like to have fun. That's it. You can also follow the #Zapathon hashtag for an extra dose of excitement if your own personal feed is a little bland during a Zapathon time period.

I what does freedom maximalism mean to you?

#nostr #nostrpoll #asknostr

Social media in that form is junk food that humanity finds hard to resist.

People must also WANT to engage in new and healthier ways.

One day closer to making nostr mainstream. Keep pushing. Keep bringing diverse content and perspectives. Building personalized communities. Global communities.

And let’s say fuck you to Elon, Zuck, corporations, and governments that are very pleased with the current state of affairs in social media that is data-farming, censorship/anti-free speech, and promoting non-transparent algorithms that promote click-bate and negative content over authentic interaction and communication.

LFG.

This is what I say to people also. “Imagine if you hit retirement age right now, could you retire or would you have to keep working”. And sure, it’s perfectly fine to keep working if you enjoy it or are “young” enough.

all you have to do is stay humble and stack sats

A mechanism for in-app feedback?

What do Nostr clients need the most to help with growth?

For?

So-so so far

I've got a buy offer out there but nobody has taken it yet

It's not very clear about how to adjust the premium etc

You saw it too then? 🤣

Messing around a bit with #robosats

The #zaps must flow #zapathon

Personally I’m fine with the lack of edit button on stuff like this. That said, had I written this in a long form editor like Habla.news, those Nostr events are replaceable and can be edited.

Saw a popular YouTuber claiming eating animals was an infefficent way to get energy and nutrients and that we should redirect to plants 😂

New things are *often NOT easy at first…

That’s what I get for not proofreading the whole thing 😂🤙
