Things are moving quicker than I thought possible.

Would be cool to have an all time leaderboard too

Right, that is a noble and practical and innovative aim, especially as you say after the last few years of platform nonsense and abuse. Also good for journalists and the public record, for example, anti-delition things. And that is kind of my point. If the innovation is creator-reader direct via Nostr at the protocol level, that would be wonderful because then people can do different sites that organise it all in different ways but whicheve one your note is found on, you as the creator can see the likes or zaps or comments from all of them. The other sites are just displaying them in different ways. But if we start building things in the middle of that, instead of incorporating them at the protocol level (zaps, paywalls, media files, whatever), then the middle bits become necessary to its functioning, not direct creator-reader-protocol for the whole network wherever the notes are found.

Right, this is kind of what I mean. You need a site to plug in to Nostr anyway (client, website, app, etc). And the clients send text messages arranged in a certain way to postgres databases around the world. You can do one (client)-to-many (databases) publishing with a click, which is innovative. Now people are quickly relating zaps to posts, which will be like rocket fuel and is very innovative. But we still needs lots of the existing Internet for it all to work (postgres, AWS, ligthning, etc, etc). So I am still wondering about the core of the Nostr idea, I guess.

I was wondering about trying something like that over the past few days. A Version III of The Spain Report. Still not convinced it's a place to do a whole site thing, vs. another place to publish some stuff thing. What is the key reason for doing it all on Nostr vs. just pushing some stuff you're already doing to the relays?

it's planned, will use the events metadata to serve proper OG tags for naddr URLs

Wonder how that’ll impact seo. Habla would have to set up proper canonicalization

The most beautiful thing during the initial block download in Bitcoin is to watch the date fly by and see the number of leading zeroes increase in the block hash.

First I heard of it. Will have a look.

⚡⚡ Ohhh, look at that, somebody just invented posts by zaps. Well done. Was that you, #[0]?

PV Nostr fam

That is - and without doubt - the funniest thing I’ve heard all day.

I do, just now, never heard of it before 😃
