Can you please tldr on Amber?

Yup, it's literally owned and run by a guy that's in the govt. And he wants to make it an everything app 🥳.

Nostr could be the public "everything app".

The fact that Amber is now widely supported makes nostr on android so crazy usable, so trivial to try out new clients.

Twitter increasing (but not entirely) hands-off approach has already been sat play along those lines. Most people find it an acceptable trade-off for the huge userbase and reach.

Nostr-as-microblogging hasn't been nostr's most interesting selling point imo.(But I'm in the 'isnt this just bitcointwitter2?' camp lol)

Nostr might not be as appealing for us citizens (for now), but from the european and australian and canadian and uk etc. prespective it's an invaluable FU social network. That's a lot of people.

Trump enforcing neutrality on section 230 is going to be very interesting, because it would force platforms to not censor people for political reasons, otherwise they could be labeled as non-neutral.

So many centralized platforms depend on 230 to even exist.

There is still the issue of takedown requests from other countries, i wonder how that would interact with a neutrality clause in section 230.

It’s nice that there is some effort in law to reduce censorship, but it’s much cleaner to just enforce it in the design of a protocol itself. Don’t have to worry about the day to day changes in law and corruption.

Maybe nostr becomes even less relevant for the majority of people if our censorship resistance story isn’t as enticing. we should probably lean in hard to note verifiability and app interoperability. These were always the best sells anyways. nostr:note1akxnhg6hmlj7vjhv7jwrl2t4z935dhg4z6379fcshg96axcz3zfsnyxe5e

The X part is particularly concerning. Is X going to be the digital identity component? Everyone needs to have a KYC'd X account to vote?

Hey #Amethyst devs! Is there a chance you move the "post" button somewhere on the bottom vs having it in the top right corner? Just a tiny UX feedback 😊

On the whole btcclock/blockclock drama. I totally get how NVK feels, it was his baby. I imagine he agonised over taking action.

I also deeply respect Djuri and his building skills, and understand it must be horrible having a repo taken down.

Personally I avoid treading on other projects toes when building. I get in foss you can, but it doesn't sit right with me. There is plenty to build without replicating,

What I'm really looking forward to is Djuri building something completely unique and brilliant (which he is more than capable of doing).

HISTORY: PENNSYLVANIA WILL BECOME 1ST STATE TO INTRODUCE BILL TO BUY #BITCOIN FOR STRATEGIC RESERVE 🔥

Exactly! I am blessed to be ‘retired’ from fiat world thanks to Bitcoin, but I guarantee I still work harder than 99% of people out there every single day. Only now, I just do it to improve my self, my family, and my community instead of chasing fiat prizes in exchange for my time and energy.

I know more than a few bitcoin people that could easily retire.

Not a single one is considering giving up the fight.

You didn’t get lucky.

You were smarter, had more conviction and bigger balls.

You earned this.

Like I said, this bull market won’t really get started until $100K

Fiat dilutes everything...

We just gonna skip the $80Ks because who tf likes those numbers amiright?

I don't get all the complains about the economy in the US. I think it's doing great!

Everything got much cheaper: groceries, gas, houses, cars. Even more so, Bitcoin has blasted through the ATH towards the end of Biden's cadence.

I would like to thank #Biden & #Harris for making America great again! In #Bitcoin terms that is, of course.

All of you complaining about the inflation are actually stuck in the fiat mindset.
