No. I think the software recognized it was a name and tried to translate it phonetically or something.
The #nostrasia translation software tried its hardest to transcribe nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6's name… and nailed it. FIRET JUFF, CEO OF THE NOSTR.
In our Nos branding we use the term “social media commons” which I like because I think the power dynamics of the system are more important than the details of interoperability (the protocol). There are lots of problems with social media, but flipping the power dynamics on their head is the foundation we all know we need.

Glad to see you back nostr:npub1l6dw52llvmyaeyaeuresc6lt86vh695lr77dv2hccy4g7knaze9stsk7yg! You need to come to one of these.
Good morning Tokyo 🇯🇵
Someone has/had an Android one but my search skills are failing me on mobile.
All you need to know about Windows is that Windows 10 has been out for 8 years and still the login screen doesn’t automatically focus the password field when it shows up.

### Defederated Mostr?
Something I’ve been wondering for a while is what will happen when nostr’s style of reports and moderation meet up with the fediverse server / defederation model.
Well a couple days ago i went go follow somebody in nos.social who’s a fediverse user. Nos now supports just direct putting in @user@fediverse.server style names which it translates to a nip-05 at mostr.pub as a gateway. It works really well, most of the time, now i can just follow and interact with anybody on the fediverse from nostr. Amazing.
But this user didnt’ come up. So i started digging and eventually found a service that lets you look up a fediverse server and see which other servers have defederated them.
In the case of mostr.pub, there’s been a bunch:
https://fba.ryona.agency/?domain=mostr.pub The reasons fediverse admins give for defederating are interesting and worth noting.
Most common is that mostr.pub isn’t respecting user/content reports from the fediverse and doesn’t moderate or take down content. Most fediverse servers are pretty active about looking at content reports and takedown requests, most nostr relay operators are not. So this isn’t a surprise. But a gateway which would be able to reach a broader section of the fediverse, or different parts of it for nostr users, would need to look at and respond to reports.
The next thing, is that all nostr content is made available through the gateway, similar to the first, there is not registration process like we have with permissioned or paid relays. It’s a fat pipe, and folks in the fediverse don’t like that. Feels like spam to them.
Related, some folks blocked it because they saw porn, right wing, homophobic, racist, or hate speech coming from nostr in to the fediverse. Honestly, I’ve seen way more go the other direction, coming from the fediverse via mostr in to nostr, but these folks probably are going to defederate anything that isn’t tighly controlled. Just like fediverse admins who block tons of sites and won’t federate with Threads.
Another set of defederation comes from crypto. Some fediverse communities are very anti-crypto and feel there’s lots of pro-crypto content coming from Nostr. I don’t see folks with this attitude wanting to federate with any gateway to nostr, but i could imagine a nostr relay and gateway which was only no-coiners which would be accepted. Meh, fine. These folks aren’t going to be convinced by anything we do on the nostr end. Then there is a funny category, servers who defederate mostr.pub just because Alex is involved with it! Again, there’s nothing we could do about them. One person even gave the defederation reason as: “Sex with Alex Gleason :heart_eyes:”
Lastly, one server blocked mostr because you can create AI generated content on Nostr… interesting… but again.. not much to do about that.
I think the solution is to be able to have something bridges the fediverse and nostr ways of doing things. I think nostr:npub108pv4cg5ag52nq082kd5leu9ffrn2gdg6g4xdwatn73y36uzplmq9uyev6 is actually working on this with ditto. If we had multiple gateways, like we have multiple relays, then we could impliment different rules on those bridges. That would both be compatible with the nostr way of things, put your content multiple places, and each user & relay can decide what they want to host and see. And it’d also be compatible with the fediverse norms. Thanks for reading my little exploration in to nostr and the mostr.pub fediverse gateway.
Very interesting. It seemed like it was only a matter of time before mostr got defederated, but yeah I'm hopeful ditto can give us more tightly scoped bridges that can each operate with their own norms and culture.
On a Friday no less! Developer bliss.
I think our biggest need is for spaces where cultures other than the Bitcoin-maximalist one can exist. I think the curated communities are a good start but the fact that notes posted to them also show up on your micro-blog’s feed breaks the immersion.
My LineageOS Android phone ran out of battery and when I plugged it back in it got stuck in a boot loop :( is there any chance I can recover the data? I saw something online about dirty flashing but I’m having trouble finding clear instructions.
Hm, good point. But I think most of the clients that don’t support delete do so for philosophical reasons. So are they more likely to display the kind 300111 maliciously and not respect the edits or to not show it at all? I think in the long run if 300111 gets traction they will just show it without edits and we’ll be back to square one. It’s an assumption though.
My initial reaction was sure, why not. Delete is important, and edit is just like deleting + posting + some UX sugar.
But on the other hand much of Nostr’s power is its simplicity. Adding another kind puts a little more burden on new clients. Maybe good enough delete is good enough. Twitter didn’t have edit for a very long time.
Added! Thanks so much! Here’s an invite if you need it (not sure if you do) https://crowdin.com/project/nossocial/invite?h=dc12786cd15a372a347d4695503dffa31823181
Nice! CCing the Nos.social translators in case any of them want to contribute. They are already set up on Crowdin. nostr:npub1raspu6ag9kfcw9jz0rz4z693qwmqe5sx6jdhhuvkwz5zy8rygztqnwfhd7 nostr:npub1g8h2agg8tj820uzpuqmsl9kdcjcr46ztw0pwtyjmc6rc6rv4xtns4mjhqh nostr:npub16ewd6v0cz5awuaa63w0p4kc92py95yefmxfaqr3ynq7x39ejy3kshkeqs7 nostr:npub1hhslfyvp82muxw6f9jy2p9yuvdshh8k5q6cu09rz85ug5xk9sz6s6phyh0 nostr:npub1pe5q9k9hetczq6ca77up6fpp5fajm4dr89hhf070ukaw3xtujkdqulw0zr nostr:npub17gdeyed37unnxyue4vk6f7n4eljxsmc4rseqxdr8cw8thmlsm6vsne4glq nostr:npub158v8pe0t8h757qwv6jvmjg7w7hrvvt73fxrtnl5zvh2k9nlk6pzsh7xwh0 nostr:npub1cv9jcchucx0jtg54vkpprvqfvh2wxhlhh6fy6cg87yff0xhr97nq82mavenostr:npub18n4ysp43ux5c98fs6h9c57qpr4p8r3j8f6e32v0vj8egzy878aqqyzzk9rnostr:npub14ps5krdd2wezq4kytmzv3t5rt6p4hl5tx6ecqfdxt5y0kchm5rtsva57gc (I missed a couple whose pubs I couldn’t find).
Curious what NIPs Nos supports? I wrote up a list and will be keeping it up-to-date on our README: https://github.com/planetary-social/nos#supported-nips
