iris.to seems to have reordered my reordering. not sure what changed, but posts are appearing on more relays now. i did add a few extra though, so maybe it's that.

reordering the relays appears to have done *something*

multiple, because they all seem a little inconsistent about what they show me on my timelines. on desktop mostly iris.to but checking things in nostrgram.co from time to time, and on mobile it's Damus.

that is not "most cases" - most certainly not the target audience of all those NordVPN ads

it's not about interactions, i know that takes time. what i mean is that when i check with technical tools to see where the posts get relayed, they hardly get relayed anywhere.

i'm not having good reachability on the network. i suspect it's because i'm not on many paid relays.

seeing if reordering my relay list does anything

because the Satoshi is such a small currency unit, even small amounts of it seem big, but then you check, and they sent you $0.001.

paying for a VPN service is bullshit in most cases.

the biggest paid relays aren't cheap are they... at least it's just a one-time payment.

so, i did a search and i had to scroll down quite far before i came across a single one that uses it. also, how are your posts appearing on so many relays, while mine hardly appear on any?

@_#[0] hm, how come i never see anything from eden.nostr.land on the global timeline?

not sure why my clients seem so bad at broadcasting my posts

actually not far off from the direction i've been considering. something practical, possibly in retail. knowing how to do smart stuff is good, but i'm increasingly inclined to think it shouldn't really be my source of income...

Code

oh, tried that for 15 years or so, could never hold down a job doing it. it always got boring after a while and concentrating on boring things is exhausting. (needless to say, me and school were never good friends either.)

more like a lack of self control that was severe enough that i eventually sought out psychiatrists to figure out why and they said autism and ADHD.

i actually gave that a try and discovered a couple of problems with that. the first problem is that i hate contacting people because it makes me nervous. the second is that i don't like that most news sources have a narrative that i must agree with to write for them, because that means having to write what i consider to be lies. what's funny about it is that "talking to lots of people and not being genuine" could describe the job of a salesman.
