There’s a huge amount of “monitor bots”, I.e: Bitcoin price, blocks, zap requests… I’m adding them to my mute list but more seem to pop up.

Is there a quicker way to do this? Public cloneable mute lists?

I would like a human-only timeline. (This is in the “Universe” section of Damus).

🚀 **Introducing the NIP-71 Video Uploader!** 🎥🌟

I'm excited to share my latest open-source tool with the Nostr community: [**NIP-71 Video Uploader**](https://github.com/girino/nip71-video-uploader).

🔧 **What does it do?**

This is a powerful **command-line tool** that makes it simple to publish high-quality videos (NIP-71 compliant) on the Nostr network.

It supports:

- 📂 **File uploads**: Files are seamlessly uploaded to a Blossom server.

- 🌐 **Direct URLs**: If you already have a video hosted, just provide the URL, and you're good to go!

🎯 Perfect for creators, developers, and anyone wanting to share videos on Nostr without hassle.

Check it out, contribute, and let's make decentralized video sharing even better!

👉 [**GitHub Repository**](https://github.com/girino/nip71-video-uploader)

Feedback and PRs are always welcome. 🚀 Let's build the future of content sharing together!

Awesome stuff. 💚

It’s a spec for Encrypted Private Messaging (i.e: DMs and small groups), a neat combo of a couple other NIPs that define the Encryption and Metadata hiding (Giftwrapping).

Much inspiration taken from nostr:npub1tm99pgz2lth724jeld6gzz6zv48zy6xp4n9xu5uqrwvx9km54qaqkkxn72, another brilliant NIP-17 client. 💚

I learned most things relatively quickly (about 2-3 weeks of diving in to Nostr as a protocol, dozens of NIPs), but one of the things I DID get quite confused about initially is “Relay Lists” and the client work required to properly respect them.

Having just first assumed that connections were purely a local thing — and while they CAN be — it can cause some funny cross-client issues (difficulty handling NIP-17 Inbox/Outboxing, for example).

In hindsight, it is quite simple, just speaking from my initial few weeks of “Nostr Noob Dev” perspective. 💚

Here’s my #shoeonhead KYC as requested.

Good to do business with you, sir. 🤝

I’m going to be revealing my NIP-17-focused Nostr client in February.

Built in less than two months (initially, as a learning challenge, but grew in to much more).

A few dozen testers are enjoying it so far; very happy with the results, just polishing up the foundations for future-proofing, every line of code is completely open-source under the MIT licence.

Let’s #grownostr together. 🔥

#introductions

I’ve been enjoying Damus on iOS, pretty solid app! I’ve only used Primal on the web.

I imagine it’ll be a while, he just regained freedom after a decade of prison, he’ll probably be on a tech-hiatus for a good few months re-adjusting to the world.

But, if he discovers and learns about Nostr, I know he’d love it. 💚

At this time, not many! 🙏 I’ve had most of my curiosities answered by studying an absolute ton of NIPs, and pestering fellow Nostrfolk.

I’m currently experimenting with my own NIP-17 chat client written in Rust + Tauri, good reception, and lots of work to do, but absolutely loving the process. 💜

Fell in love with Nostr this year, especially thanks to nostr:npub1e3zglze5g2mq894pfw42kw8uwmyd8uc6m8mupctjfkfplgddglds4v7wja for introducing me and nostr:npub1drvpzev3syqt0kjrls50050uzf25gehpz9vgdw08hvex7e0vgfeq0eseet for his awesome Nostr-Rust SDK (and helping me out with some quirks <3).

Good things coming in 2025 - Let’s Build Together. 💜

ALEISTER CROWLEY’S ALIEN

_______________

Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) was an English occultist, writer, and ceremonial magician who played a significant role in the development of modern Western esotericism. He gained notoriety for his involvement in various mystical practices and his influence on occult and spiritual movements.

One of Crowley's lesser-known aspects of his work involves his encounters with an entity he referred to as "Lam." In the later years of his life, Crowley was known to have engaged in a series of visionary and trance-like states, during which he claimed to have communicated with a being he depicted in a drawing as a somewhat androgynous figure with a large, bald head and slit-like eyes. Lam bears a remarkable resemblance to the speculated alien grays in popular UFO lore.

This resemblance does bring up an interesting possibility. Crowley was called by the tabloids of the day the “Wickedest Man In The World,” and a “Master Of Darkness.” He was defiantly trying to communicate with beings from other dimensions, what we could call demons. It is very possible that the aliens that are encountered are in fact demons and not visitors from another planet. This would have profound and even biblical implications if true. It would mean that we are most defiantly alone in the universe, unique and miraculous creations. It would also mean that the UFO phenomenon is an encounter with a spiritual realm that we know little about.

Hello World! New to #Nostr, I'm using the Iris client, the "account" creation was awesome, let's see what this is all about...
