I've been doing a lot of development on nostr for months and have never experienced that at all π back in January or so the Damus relay was struggling but I would not be able to connect to it at all
maybe you were having a connectivity issue or something? π€·ββοΈ
I don't think its fair to say that. Just because they didn't have all the federation features available at day one doesn't mean its bad.
I don't seem to have the same experience as you reading their docs, before they even had a web app or android client available, I was able to create an account and follow #[4] just by reading their docs and making http requests.
Just recently I made a silly bot that posts on both Nostr and Bluesky, for Bluesky it just worked, but on Nostr I had problems getting relays to accept my notes. #[5]
Zaps on Bluesky are entirely possible, in fact my account already has a hidden lud16 in its profile data, I made a document about it already. https://github.com/MichaelPriebe/bluesky-zaps/blob/master/README.md For now there would need to be a custom client, but reading some things that the very active developers are saying, it might not be needed in the future.
what kind of problems are you getting writing to relays?
what are you sending? if a relay doesn't accept the event it would send you back an error
ough, that's painfully long, yeah
I personally would break it into if the language allows it
```
Map
eventCounter = new ConcurrentHashMap
```
productivity tools are like half the tools on the internet π€; the other half is porn
don't zap this, I'm testing something
I definitely like long and self-explanatory names
but usually if they are too long is because they are conveying too much meaning that should be split further
javascript stands out because javascript is also shit for everything else π
no, 2 space indentation is a sign of too much nesting and increasing complexity
bluesky is ethereum to nostr's bitcoin
β compliant
β safe
β top-down design
β fake decentralization
β captured/capturable
good luck...

the javascript people did this
I feel like nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8 should have an entire set about indentations on his next netflix special
2-space indentation is absolute shit
Is there a list of links of apps built on top of nostr?
Would be good to categorize them into topics.
Search awesome-nostr on github
Yeah, ofc, thatβs baked right into the protocol. Thereβs a ton of tools to do this πππ
nak is the jq of nostr
nak.nostr.com
who built it?
I mean, the mere fact that you need an invite code to try an "open protocol" it's like the most idiotic thing ever
as a dev, I take a look at bluesky's spec and feels overwhelmingly bloated and confusing
as a dev, I take a look at nostr's NIP-01, realize I don't need to read anything else, and build something 10 minutes later
not quite the same
yeah, there's nothing preventing me from sending them as a different kind
although, keep in mind those DMs are all self-sent, so they wouldn't appear as a bunch of different pubkeys, just as a bunch of notes from yourself
(yes, those are private keys I'm doxxing there π )
π
that could be a fun experiment
