Fair point but it feels exclusionary to have it. Not everyone on Nostr is interested in crypto so it feels like somewhat of a turn off to new users. Seems better to have Zaps as more of a tip-like feature in polls.
Yeah but you gotta pay in Zaps if you want to vote. It is like a poll tax but for the digital age.
What hatsuyume did you have to start the new year off #Nostr fam? #AskNostr #Dreamstr
Also happy birthday to one of my favorite video game characters of all time Ichiban Kasuga! #Gamestr
Imagine it being like those stupid mobile games where you have to pay for tasks early. We've reached the cooked stage once that happens.
Someone had to do it.
Happy New Year!

#AskNostr Anyone know any good Bitcoin wallets that run on the Lightning Network that are FLOSS and don't have any AML or KYC measures?
I will never understand why the very same women that always talk about how scared they are to walk alone at night and how they would prefer to be with a bear over a man are simultaneously anti-2A. Like ladies, a gun is a tool you need.

I would say that the current state of capitalism is that it has been used and appropriated by the State to benefit itself rather than its people.
Yet another state appropriating #Bitcoin for its own pleasure. https://www.axios.com/2024/12/25/russia-bitcoin-evade-sanctions-crypto

Japan government cautions against Bitcoin as National Reserve, citing volatility and security concerns
The government of Japan has clarified its unwillingness to include Bitcoin in its foreign exchange reserves in response to Hamada Satoshi’s question. According to a report by Coinpost, Prime Minister Ishiba Shigeru issued an official statement on 20th December in response to Senator (Rassho) Hamada Satoshi’s question. The government admitted it doesn’t have detailed information […]

EFF Article Plugging BlueSky:
Quote:
"Elon Musk turned Twitter into X, a restrictive hub filled with misinformation and hate speech"
How can you have decentralization if someone decides misinformation?!
Further down,
"The current Bluesky network is not decentralized."
Then,
"All DMs rely on Bluesky owned servers"
&
"only Bluesky has the power to “deplatform” poorly behaved users by removing them"
Yet the ONLY mention of Nostr is:
"The permeability of Bluesky also means community tooling will need to address network abuses, like last May when a pro-Trump botnet on Nostr bridged to Bluesky via Mastodon to flood timelines."
The reason we like Nostr is not because we're pro-Trump. It's because we don't want a single dude to decide what everyone does. While as BlueSky is a company that can easily be bought, and controlled, to become just like Twitter. The very thing you disliked about Elon Musk, of shoving political bias down people's faces, is exactly what you're doing.

The EFF is basically just the ACLU but for technology.
Reminds me of the good old days with the typewriter where one mistype meant starting all over again. Nostr is just the digital incarnation of the typewriter.
Now you're talking! That's the "non-voting" that matters. Taxes, and service in the security forces.
And another good example of non-voting: Boycotting the DMV by removing your license plate!
Update: Man that was some spicy stuff!🗣️🔥🔥🔥
