Authored NIP-88 (polls), Made formstr.app , pollerama.fun, NRPC and other cool nostr things. Owns the color purple.

It's okay for messaging and maybe even closed groups, publicly available notes are "publicly available" trying to remove them is almost futile.

I have been using Nostr for two years now, and the lack of a NIP-09 (event delete) or its equivalent standard on Nostr is, more than ever, a significant privacy and safety issue built into the current version of the protocol.

Snowden warned us of the dangers of a permanent record. Have we not learned anything?

Nostr, as it is right now, is a permanent record that seeks to tie all of your apps and your coin transactions to one key pair.

If that key pair is ever compromised, EVERYTHING is compromised.

If you accidentally doxx yourself, you are HOSED.

It's bad OPSEC. And it sounds like a honeypot waiting to happen.

Amber (event signer) is a decent workaround, but it has not passed a third-party security audit, and I still believe a parent/child key system is the way to go as it does not expand your attack surface by having to depend on a third party to keep all of your Nostr business safe.

Now back to event deletion...

The protocol is the protocol. Relays must use the protocol to participate in the network.

If the protocol requires honoring event deletion requests to participate in the network, then Nostr will have avoided this festering security and safety issue.

If certain #Nostr devs don't stop saying universal post deletes can't happen because of xyz (insert biased limiting belief/excuse here), and start figuring out how it can be done... it's a protocol design that's dead in the water to anything but mostly nameless, faceless anons.

The future is privacy-first, client-side computing, not relays. The clock is ticking.

I mean just to play the devils advocate.

None of the NIPs are enforceable, so even if nip-09 exists, there's really NOTHING you can do about a relay that doesn't honor it, other than trying to make sure your note doesn't reach it, which is very hard since anyone of your followers can broadcast it to such a relay.

Its really not much different than someone screenshot-ing your tweet.

I like nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240 's take on being able to dissaciate from your note atleast as a signal.

Is there a relay discovery tool that allows me to find relays by the nips that they support?

I want to know what relays support nip-45(count)

A censorship resistant github alternative is the need of the hour so projects like these can survive

I understand, but that was not the question. What if you could only choose one?

Form or function?

Someone had to bite the bullet

Designing something and implementing the design are two completely different things. Also OS' like graphene might not want to implement it for various reasons.

Because it let's people attain sovereignty over their actions, be deliberate about the choices they make. Helps them avoid mass surveillance, is In

Some cases the ONLY option for people that have been banned from the "slick user experiences".

It literally is tech that helps them attain freedom.

but maybe it's shit, and people can just be a part of the corporate cock sucking cult that looks cool.

🤷

Its bad for non-devs, but that's the nature of "free, open" stuff. For good design, you need to pay good designers and devs to implement them.

Otherwise its just people doing cool stuff in their free time, its never going to match what companies paying out millions can do.

They can always give a better experience and do it cheaper and earn in "other ways".

Get a sidekick android (maybe with graphene?) 😛 I started using graphene as a sidekick and it made my iPhone the "sidekick" 😂

nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z has done a very good job on amethyst, allowing for edits, requesting deletes, "un-reacting'" , I just love using amethyst for these and a bunch of other reasons as well. I completely forgot that nostr had a "no delete" culture.

For newcomers on here, you can follow hashtags, they're really good for content discovery

Do you think Scooby snacks where an innuendo for weed?

Good reminder to curate your feed, the ones you follow are literally the ones you are allowing to shape your thoughts, be more deliberate about it.

Woah I did the same Saturday night as well.

Friends, music, booze and games, loved it a lot, don't regret a bit.
