Replying to Avatar Lyn Alden

My harshest critic is my husband. Most people canโ€™t honestly say that, but I can.

Heโ€™s always my final boss when trying to assert an idea. Heโ€™s super smart and usually comes at things from a different angle. And heโ€™s my primary editor. Heโ€™s also the head of my websiteโ€™s customer support center.

Unlike my social media where I shoot from the hip and fuck around, I post detailed articles on my site only after my harshest critic gives me his feedback.

And he doesnโ€™t phrase things like a loving husband normally would. He goes over the top.

Heโ€™ll literally put comments on my drafts like โ€œThis is fucking right wing trash Lyn. I know you were raised in a trailer park so I donโ€™t expect much, but do better. Rephrase literally all of this.โ€

That sounds abusive but itโ€™s humorous in practice given our context when working.

Weโ€™re not very politically different, but I tend to lean slightly righter than him, so thatโ€™s a common source of debate. I pull him right and he pulls me left, not as people who are far apart but who are slightly apart but both opinionated and debate over every inch. Itโ€™s on an issue by issue basis.

Mostly he does those comments for humor, but partially because he wants a debate and will bring like a well-researched150 IQ argument to hold the line as I try to argue through his defenses. And I write my research for investment clients of all political views, left and right, globally, as objective as possible, and so he purposely helps keep me straight and steelmans all my arguments for clients.

We debated in the early days about the vaccine in the pandemic, for example, back in 2020 and 2021. Weโ€™re still kind of debating about it now in 2025, both granting certain details to the other.

But whenever I write something of substance that is controversial, I know he will read it and call me a retard, which I have to push through and turn into a publishable article.

My social media posts are just me, whereas my long-form posts take time and argue through him.

I often post thoughts and gather comments on Twitter/X, since a lot of tradfi financial pros are happy to discuss. Then I write a piece, and my husband looks through it. I either agree or disagree, and then publish. I get the final say, but I only publish after Iโ€™m confident after his arguments.

TLDR; My summary from this whole rambling piece is that I suggest you find a close loved one who will call you a trailer park retard while challenging you on every piece you write while loving you.

Few people will do that but itโ€™s important.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Pinja is a decentralized, censorship-resistant bookmarking app built on Nostr, giving users full control over their saved links without relying on centralized servers. It allows seamless organization with custom tags, private and public bookmarks, and powerful search and filtering. With Lightning-enabled tipping, import/export capabilities and Nostr relay support, Pinja ensures a secure and flexible bookmarking experience. Private bookmarks are end-to-end encrypted, while public ones can be shared and discovered through tag-based feeds.

4. yumyume - version 0.2.1

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

nostr:npub1mswm0kyce37jsnrwa3jelm469rcnezyq505djwl4aparmf4xf2es8rxl8w is a Nostr based social bookmarking tool, just got a flavorful update with performance optimizations. This release named โ€œSmoked Salmon & Dill Cream on Blini & Lemon Zest Refinementโ€ features a lighter logo, smarter relay handling that disconnects inactive tabs to save resources, and a faster data-fetching system using a custom Vanilla JS implementation for real-time updates. The concept is from nostr:npub1l77twp5l02jadkcjn6eeulv2j7y5vmf9tf3hhtq7h7rp0vzhgpzqz0swft.

Additionally, Yumyume is preparing to migrate to NIP-01 and kind 39700, following its integration into Pinja (https://www.pinja.in/) by nostr:npub18c556t7n8xa3df2q82rwxejfglw5przds7sqvefylzjh8tjne28qld0we7. Interestingly, both teams began working on social bookmarking around the same time, offering users multiple Nostr-based bookmarking clients to choose from.

Important: This migration will require users to manually transfer their bookmarks. They recommend holding off on adding too many new bookmarks in Yumyume MVP for now. A link to the old client will be provided so early users can copy and paste their bookmarks into the new version. More details will follow soon!

To support its growth, contributions to the nostr:npub1kmwdmhuxvafg05dyap3qmy42jpwztrv9p0uvey3a8803ahlwtmnsnhxqk9 campaign are encouraged, with rewards available for even less than the cost of a yearly Pinboard subscription.

Primal is a nostr client that helps users to explore Nostr protocol. This release comes with multi-account support, deep linking, article pagination, and improved media sharing. The update enhances note and profile linking, adds relay hints for nevent copies, and introduces larger GitHub link previews. Bug fixes address profile ordering, media display, QR code issues, and UI inconsistencies. Additional improvements include a search button on the keyboard and a "Post" button in key sections.

=============================

1. Yumyume - version 0.2.0

nostr:npub1mswm0kyce37jsnrwa3jelm469rcnezyq505djwl4aparmf4xf2es8rxl8w, the Nostr-based social bookmarking tool, just got a flavorful update. This release introduces a global feed, allowing users to explore all shared bookmarks in one place, enhancing discovery and engagement. The update also brings a brand-new logo, designed by nostr:npub1gwa27rpgum8mr9d30msg8cv7kwj2lhav2nvmdwh3wqnsa5vnudxqlta2sz, giving Yumyume a fresh and more recognizable identity. There was version 0.1.1 release also in this week.

Looking ahead, the team is working on a custom event kind in the 1000-10000 range to enable editable bookmarks, improving how signed bookmarks per URL function beyond the limitations of NIP-51. The developers invite the Nostr community to collaborate on refining this feature. The concept is from nostr:npub1l77twp5l02jadkcjn6eeulv2j7y5vmf9tf3hhtq7h7rp0vzhgpzqz0swft.

To support its growth, contributions to the nostr:npub1kmwdmhuxvafg05dyap3qmy42jpwztrv9p0uvey3a8803ahlwtmnsnhxqk9 campaign are encouraged, with rewards available for even less than the cost of a yearly Pinboard subscription.
