I'll offer an optimistic take on both of your concerns:

1. I believe that most nostr clients will implement some form of outbox support. All Primal clients certainly will. We are literally a few days from releasing a major update. Once users’ notes are spread out over hundreds (eventually thousands) of relays, client devs will be incentivized to upgrade their clients accordingly. It will take a bit of time, but that’s okay.

2. Nostr being seeded with bitcoiners is a feature, not a bug. To bootstrap a truly decentralized network, we need the initial group of users who understand decentralization and are willing to fight for it. There is no other way imho. The short term price we are paying is that the content is bitcoin-centric, but that’s fine. That will get sorted out over time as the network grows.

IMO, we need to lower our time preference and be more patient. Everything is moving in the right direction.

We don’t need a successor protocol. Nostr is the one we’ve been looking for.

Zaps may be the signal best signal indicator that we have, but emojis are fun and people do enjoy them as a form of expression. Should more clients consider adding support for displaying them?

How has the @fedimint integration been for Mutiny users? Any issues, feature requests, etc?

It works great for both new and existing users alike. The idea is that it works in combination with your self custodial lightning channels if you have them.

When adding a federation, receives under 200k go into the federation. Spends come out of the federation first as well.

This really helps make sure that small valued payments do not get stuck and cause channel closures as well. This is huge if you've ever run into that.

At any time you can swap your federation balance to self custodial lightning. This is very useful if you've accumulated enough sats to justify opening a channel. We recommend around the 200k - 500k range.

Not sure where to find a federation invite code or how to add it to Mutiny? We make that really simple now!

Just go to the profile icon in the top right to manage federations.

We find federations that have been listed on nostr. This allows you to discover mints, see which mints your friends have recommended, etc.

And because of the open interoperability, these are also listed on bitcoinmints.com by @makeprisms

We're not stopping there either! Later this month we will have lightning addresses based on fedimint as well.

This will be available to Mutiny+ users first, with random user names available for anyone after sufficient testing.

So what do you think?! Anything else you'd like to see regarding fedimint integrations?
