Master of the blade with only two swords, it doesn't add up, you should have a room full of swords if you were a master
https://www.martialartswords.com/blogs/articles/katana-vs-longsword-battle-of-the-blades
So basically
- A longsword has two edges, katana has one
- A katana is about a foot shorter than a longsword
- A katana has a slight curvature, helps reduce vibration while cutting

Also a wakizashi is 12-24 inches long vs a katana's 24-29 inches.

...what's the difference

And you're saying it's *not* meth?
Everyone knows "Lia" Thomas is going to be a dude married to a hot woman in a few years, probably with kids. He was phoning it in the entire time, barely made any effort to be "ladylike" at all.
Check the price on the F-91W compared to the past several years. It might be the best measure of inflation yet.
looks like you found the sperg gf
how does it feel
Sounds like you need a little pep talk from the Self-Help Singh.
> I donāt see what the issue is
Lol. I'll let the statistics speak for themselves.
PURA VIDA AMIRITE??
The only way to form communities is to make relays different from one another.
The only way to make relays different from one another is for them to accept and/or forward some messages to some clients while rejecting and/or not forwarding some messages to other clients.
And the only way for THAT to happen is some kind of user persistence on relays, which kinda sorta exists already with profiles, but it's going to have to be more of a community thing.
Clients will need to have views for single ("primary"?) relays instead of just global and following.
And by that point, you've reinvented fedi to some extent, except the user has his own key instead of his identity belonging to a node.
All that to say that yeah, Nostr by its nature encourages an amorphous blob of pseudo-culture that really isn't interesting at all, kind of like a world where everyone is part of the same, amorphous blob of mixed race (coming soon!)
My biggest problem with fedi is how massively complex and bloated ActivityPub has become, making less-than-superstar coders like myself less able to contribute. I'm not saying it has to appeal to the lowest common denominator, but the Nostr NIPs, and even the Bluesky docs, are a LOT more readable and encourage developers to want to contribute to the ecosystem more.
ActivityPub is a nightmare for a beginner to get into.
I'm trying to figure out how to run one right now. I see two main code repos, one in TypeScript and one in Go (signaling a lack of unity among the dev team already). Neither one really tells how to run it or what it does.

Okay, here's an early "awesome"-style list...Still not much info on what to do: https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto-ecosystem
Is it available in a repo somewhere? I could try spinning up an instance to see what it's like. The site and docs have a kind of "closed" feeling about them, though.
Yep, here's where the problem will occur.

The indexers will be the gatekeepers, and only large companies will have the means to efficiently and continuously crawl the instances.
And they spell it out even more explicitly here:

You're free to say it, but if it's wrongthink, it won't reach anyone.
