Hey everyone. I’m new here and just learning about Nostr so thought I’d make a quick #introduction

I love the idea of a decentralized social media platform and have tried other alternatives to corporate platforms like Mastadon. That one didn’t seem to pan out in terms of censorship resistance.

I’m hoping someone can discuss or answer some questions about Nostr. I’m curious about how relays work. My naive understanding is they don’t talk to each other? If so, that is a bit concerning in terms of how decentralized the platform will be.

Anyone that knows more can chime in?

Oh Hell, Odell is a Blue Check

Hi! 👋🏼

Excited to try this out! #tiktok made me do it!

I need help. Can someone please help me and hold my hand through this?

Can someone help me install bisq on my computer please?!? 😫

I am so f*ING frustrated right now...

I am just reminded why I actually never tried using bisq or any of the other p2p platforms 2+ months ago when I first start asking about and going down that rabbit hole.

I am even more frustrated realizing that now knowing how much cheaper Bitcoin was two freaking months ago.

And here I am sitting down on my computer tonight... Serious to do some study and try to set up bisq and I can't get passed the fucking download.

I am not a developer but I am also not a fucking tech retaard and yet this is beyond me. Ughhhhhhhh 😖😵‍💫😫😩

BEYOND TIRED. BEYOND EXHAUSTED.

This bull cycle for BTC/USD pair will be interesting.

With all the new sites that allow #bitcoin as a form of payment, #Nostr getting more popular, subscriptions for relays, clients priced in sats.

There is a debate to be made:

1. Keep the current price of items, don't make any changes because 1 SAT = 1 SAT

or

2. Dynamic pricing is needed, to cope with the surge in BTC/USD pairs to the uptrend.

---

Some companies/individuals will keep their prices the same in SAT terms. For example, 1 chair cost you 12,000 SATS even if that means those same 12,000 are worth over $150 (exaggerating for the example).

Now, with dynamic pricing would be that instead of paying 25,000 SATS you would be paying 2500 SATS or $15 for that chair.

---

In my opinion, dynamic pricing should be the way, for now. Most people will consider the 25,000 SATS price extremely overpriced and go to the person that use dynamic pricing, this will allow new users to expend their SATS as well.

Thoughts?

With all of these advancements in technology, the world is about to get really strange.

If this were an anime and my abilities included

- Bitcoin

- Nostr

- 3d Printing

- AI

- NixOS

- Augmented reality

I'd create 5 planets before drinking my morning coffee

I literally spend the zaps I receive on Nostr on buying domains and renting servers.

We've already heave reached cypherpunk heaven. This is it how it feels.

Okay Nostr... I need advice.

I wake up daily with neck pain. I flop like a fish, but mostly am a side sleeper.

I need to remember that I'm over 40 & am getting old 🤣 The shitty, flat pillows that I use are only good for young people apparently.

Please, give me recommendations on a cervical pillow!!

So how does one who is straight outta full stack school get into contributing to nostr?

Unless I’m missing something, to do anything useful you would also need a UI library, a JSON serialization library (assuming you’re using not jabbascript) and probably a DB library as well.

The Javascript learning curve is incredibly low. But the "build environment" learning curve is ridiculously high because the package managers and build processors are total garbage.

Some days I wish we could just press a button and make Javascript disappear forever, along with the entire mutant train-wreck that it has spawned.
