is a good one, IMO one of his best in recent years.
What you don't understand, is that the site is in maintenance mode, and this was in the pinned message when you posted. Had you just read it, you may not have written such a message with such an entitled tone.
> can you make the front page load faster.
No. I literally don't owe you anything, other than being a free, you didn't even introduce yourself. This was your introduction.
> It's really slow to the point it's unusable.
It's not useless, thousands of people use it a day. Is it dated, yes? Does it need pagination? Probably, but it's legacy and in maintenance mode. And had you agan, read the pinned message at the time, then you would have found the likely solution
> Why do you make so many things load on the front page.
Again, you didn't read the pinned message or asl any questions.
> It's unnessesary
What's unnecessary is this feedback, because it's useless, ignorant and lazy; all you had to do was read.
And I wasn't upset btw, but I am now. My response to you was pretty standard for someone dealing with someone they don't know being rude and making demands of them like an entitled little brat.
Have you considered that you're projecting? Maybe instead of flaming people foor doing things, you should produce something of value yourself.
cool notemine fork: https://github.com/plebemineira/notemine_hw
Texture, fine granules and appearance, darker brown then compose/dirt (generally). You'll notice an almost uniform fineness, with no chunks of compost. They'll likely need to acclimate before they become active. Also, they aren't as active when it's cold, so depending on where you are you might have to wait a while.
First, I'm not the one who got upset. Second, you should learn how to read before you flame people.
Here's one for the record:
😂 ...yes, terrible. but not that terrible because most relays will simply ignore or truncate the REQ.
Bitcoin is money. Money is math. Math can be measured and quantified objectively. A trustless system is of the highest importance with a decentralized store of value. Proof of work/Consensus/Incentives are perfect for sound money.
Nostr is identities and connections. Social connections are not math. They cannot be measured or quantified objectively. The fundamental principle of a social dynamic is one that revolves around trust.
These are not the same.
Proof of work in bitcoin functions due to the dynamics between blocks, network consensus and incentives: IE the advent of blockchain.
PoW on nostr is just an arbitrary number to meet a relay's requirements. If a spammer has profit incentive, they simply scale their difficulty accordingly. Someone with an incentive will always be willing to pay a higher price (PoW) than a casual user. The obvious outcome here is an ever increasing difficulty that makes nostr unusable for the average user.
That said PoW notes are most likely part of the solution, but very unlikely to be the entire solution. If I thought it had no value II wouldn't have released notemine last week: https://sandwichfarm.github.io/notemine
Yes it has and it's not particularly difficult either. https://getwired.app has PoW replies.
Centipedes took over my bin and massacred my 3 year worm bin while I was in Madeira earlier this year. Was a sad coming home. Fuck centipedes.
Now that replyguy/gal has rustled nostr’s jimmies do we have any evidence that proof of work apps / relays deter spam?

they do but only because clients that filter PoW are fringe. If everyone does it, spammers will create a nostr note miner asic and then it is an arms race (somewhat joking). PoW definitely provides rate limiting.
for example, if kind 0's were pow, then reply guy would have to shift strategies.
I personally think its a multifaceted solution: some wot, some payments, some pow + some other stuff I'm not aware of or we haven't figured out yet.
that's the one I mentioned, it got a higher pow but was mined at difficulty 42. 8 cores, but 7 workers. Was around 5kH/s. Got lucky, it mined in around 30 seconds.
mined a 42 PoW note with notemine early last week https://sandwichfarm.github.io/notemine
Not that I'm aware of, but you're right in assume it's probably close to zero. ...I definitely don't have time to write logic for every spam attack variant :D
change my mind.
