yep, I am still hunting down these cases. I think its a relay that is ignoring the deletion request and sending the draft back to the app anyway. I have to build a little cache for draft deletions.

Wow these are some long release notes 😅 nostr:nevent1qqs2wp9pzv6w6nlxl3hwd7y9dahsqhdrxez8wpsk79phlzetfz949vgprpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuendwsh8w6t69e3xj730qgsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqrqsqqqqqp9d96a9

big update 😁 remember to zap to keep supporting development for Amethyst! nostr:nevent1qqs2wp9pzv6w6nlxl3hwd7y9dahsqhdrxez8wpsk79phlzetfz949vgpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdupzq3svyhng9ld8sv44950j957j9vchdktj7cxumsep9mvvjthc2pjuqvzqqqqqqy6gcdxk

These days, an app that was made 6 months ago is already outdated. Your team has to move very fast otherwise the code just slowly depreciates and newer apps take your market share with faster/simpler/better features for a fraction of the effort. It's move fast or die.

I'm actually working on figuring out what I need to know to get involved. It would be cool if the top Bitcoin and Nostr devs got together and published some sort of git repo or something that points people like me in the right direction. It's been a challenge figuring out exactly what I should spend the bulk of my time learning.

I’d like to nominate my friend @ianfic_👽_ to continue with the Swahili translations so he can stack more sats during up and coming splits. I hope that is okay with you Vitor. Please guide him on what to do. ✌🏾

The worst part about being early adopter of tech is that everything is terribly broken. The best part is, that when something gets fixed, the dopamine rush is real. I literally jumped and cheered when reading about the removal of reposts of the same note in the feed. It's the little things in life.

It seems confused if something is a reply or a quote. My note was a reply. I've seen it in other threads as well, briefly, one of the two is removed after a few 100ms. https://image.nostr.build/d7aee6783fecea056186a67be9fb2a081fbd7fff904ed71ac549f9f4e9f632f0.jpg

ว้าววว คิดว่าแปลยังไม่เสร็จนะ ได้เจ้าหลาม @123🦈ปลาฉลามขึ้นบก แอบมาช่วยแปลตอนไหนกันเนี่ย 😆🙏 #siamstr nostr:nevent1qqs2wp9pzv6w6nlxl3hwd7y9dahsqhdrxez8wpsk79phlzetfz949vgpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdupzq3svyhng9ld8sv44950j957j9vchdktj7cxumsep9mvvjthc2pjuqvzqqqqqqy6gcdxk
