Notes from Ireland 1
Iโve been here five days already and today I briefly saw the sun. Itโs July.

Welcome, nice photo ๐
If you'd like some help about this weird protocol we call NOSTR I wrote some guides here:
https://habla.news/u/mhardcastle@nostrplebs.com
I would start with this one here for some basic concepts:

If you have questions, the tagย #asknostrย is a good place to start.
If you want to write a brief hello, use theย #introductionsย hashtag to allow people to find and welcome you.
Enjoy freedom speech and money.
Yep, I'm seeing 8 good relays now ๐
Iโve always wanted a dedicated place to eat cheese ๐
So I'm having a look at your relays (if you'd like some amateur advice) and I can see you have quite a few. Also one is configured in error (the 3rd from bottom):
You really only need a few relays (unless you want specific content from specific relays).
You publish to your outbox relay, when people see you they make a note of your relay and if they follow you, they will query your primary relay for your posts. You may want a secondary relay as a backup, but that's it.
You discover others by either searching for content or by seeing reposts from existing follows.
Having too many relays can slow you down or add additional load to your client. If you look at my relay config, which you can do from most clients. You can see I only have 5.
I publish to my own relay https://nortis.nostr1.com/trex
I pay for a large central relay https://nostr.wine/
I use wss://hist.nostr.land/ to backup my follows
and because I use the Damus client a lot, that relay is also included: wss://relay.damus.io/
Note to self, I should really delete the wss://relay.getalby.com/v1 relay ๐
If you get into specific groups or topics you may wish to add relevant relays, but that's it. It's that simple (at this stage at least).

I'm just gonna pretend I understood everything you just said and wish you good luck with #Alexandria ๐
Do you think they mean chaise longue? ๐

You getting ready to move to Bitchat? ๐
๐ฑ
I didnโt want the post I wrote a while back to get lost in the annals of time.
Also, youโre going to make a filthy joke about the last part of that sentence ๐
Iโve never been content with my content ๐
Also why is lady shampoo called โproductโ?
Additional Strategies, do they mean Saylor? ๐
Youโve got your own problems to worry about ๐
I like their UI, but the onlyyyyyy thing I didn't like is that they ping back to their servers over clearnet, therefore doxxing you (either intentionally or unitentionally). Not sure if they've fixed this. Let's ping them: nostr:nprofile1qyt8wue69uhh2mtzwfjkctnvda3kzmp6xsurgwqpzpmhxw309a6k6cnjv4kr5dpcxsuqqg829c7gzngg5du03fdcltkt9zzdqkz4jaw9ef94cf0z6munv2r0zsg8cnv5
Have you seen my NOSTR profile?
Iโm not exactly hiding under the radar ๐
NOSTR the shit out of all centralised services ๐

I donโt have a choice my house and out buildings were cabled in 2007 as it was being rebuilt. Unless I want to run ugly ducting on the outside of my beautiful costwold stone house, Iโm stuck with it ๐
Better keep your paperwork in order nostr:nprofile1qqswswmx4rkj6d7q05dtafhpkqq2z42fc62s37jvtp642m2jkpfxc2cpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3wamnwvaz7tmxd9k8getj9ehx7um5wgh8w6twv53zg7wm ๐ง
Alongside the โonline safety actโ the trajectory of UK government intent to control is very clear

Yes, I heard about this.
I'll only be leaving the UK once a year, for about 9 months ๐
If it gets too bad, I may not come back.
They don't get it either!
I have seen a lot of posts talking about VPNs this last week.
Such posts are truly sickening.
Every time a VPN is downloaded a child is harmed.

Dam, I've harmed another child with my VPN ๐
Refund offer withdrawn ๐๐๐
You won't be disappointed.
Full refund if you're not entirely satisfied ๐
Google images of gurning ๐
Landlords are shit, just ask my tenants ๐
I was slightly joking about the dirty mags, I was more making the point that protecting kids from things we think they shouldn't see never worked.
But I'm also not joking, I was definitely friends with one guy who had access to his dads magazine collection.
Personally, I was mostly in the cool kid groups and hovered at the bottom of the top set for most of my school days, leaving curious to understand what the hell school was all about. Adults kept trying to tell me stuff without explaining why, so I didn't bother listening.
It was only when I left school that I really started learning.
