How about we build on principles instead of just recreating the existing system.

People don’t care about eating healthy either but that doesn’t mean we should shovel them garbage just so that they will consume our product.

KYC is the illicit activity and fuck anyone who is bringing that shit into the future with us just to comply with the state or to win in the short term. nostr:note1ajazmpwymp2xu7200968qd6256a9gyuyj5t5vx8uhxwhmacyrvjskwet8u


Love this 😍


you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink


Yes, now let's also stop the theft as well.

This sounds like the best approach..the future oriented, privacy and freedom conscious people are and will be rare. Masses will not follow and we have to accept it..and stop praying for mass adoption. But WE SHOULD NOT STOP BUILDING AND MOVING FORWARD!!


Fun! Fun seems a good principle. A lot of what centralized social media does decreases the genuine good time that we can have. Zaps and zapathons perfect examples.


The masses needed kyc compliance from the bosses to get access to their wealth. Now the bosses need the kyc compliance from the masses to get their wealth.


But it's a social app, unlike a healthy meal, a social app is not useful if you're the only user.


:Clap:


100% this.

Also yo I’m getting “error fetching Lightning invoice” again when I try to zap this note 😞


node is down yet again. my bitcoind loves to corrupt the leveldb index for some reason, even on different drives. Starting to think it’s a bug. maybe I need to zfs snapshot or something :/


Maybe doesn't need mass adoption to be useful but it needs more than it has, and more discovery tools / community tools.


My node is down. Its all good I’m not doing this for zaps


Yes but I’m zapping you for doing this 😂🤝🫡

Invoice please?


Hopefully we will answer the need for better.


We are the resistance. The technical hurdles for Nostr are a heathy and low barrier against bots and npc’s and the fact that we can’t edit, delete, or remove posts is incentive to think before you speak and ties up the censorship regime.

People in massive social media platforms are herded around for a reason. Forcing people to think and be technically proficient is a path for more heathy online systems.


weird, i have no issues with the DB on my zorin OS node (based on ubuntu 22)

yes, could be it's mangling the indexes tho

it takes a while to rebuild but perhaps keep a backup of the chain data so you can just drop it back onto a node and then set the tx/addr indexes on and reindex... only takes a few hours, maybe at most a day

it's incredible how fast core syncs up these days!


WE AREN’T NO ONE. WE CARE A LOT.


I spoke to a friend about Nostr. Apparently there are alot of people who actually use throwaway accounts on reddit to share personal information. Like the AITA and such.

I think a good feature that I would welcome is key management. Like an HD wallet. Many keys, one keyring, associated to like a tapsigner or something.

A Reddit replacement for personally sensitive information would actually be see some value in some of the de-facto anonymity of nostr. Just a 🤔🤔🤔


Fundamentally the “problem” with nostr is that it’s a Twitter clone.

Why would a normie move from twitter to nostr? We did because we care about freedom of speech. The network effects matter more to them.

If we want to move the world off twitter, we have to design something different and better where they spend more time.

The alternative is to just build stuff for ourselves without caring whether other people use it.

There were bots a little while ago. Maybe they fixed some of the relays


Some people care about eating healthy. Health is a good principle.


i love that fucking analogy #[2]


not to mention the competition with activitypub, bluesky(lol), threads, elontwit. It’s a way more saturated market than when twitter launched.

The only thing that will get people’s attention is having a large set of solid apps that are fun, where you can easily switch between securely, and all have zap integration. That’s the world I want to live in. We’re not even close to that yet. We have a few almost usable apps.


yes, we need some serious man hours spent on building them out to some polish

and stop with this twitter cloning fixation

we need to make long form built in easily

we need to integrate the media uploading fully

we need the markets to work

we want to kill facebook, we have to king hit on every point they do to win


Well write on the copy thing.

if we are smart enough should we build only things that are usefull without checking box that are outdated.

we are not printers !


it's hard to say exactly how we will catch the market but we are a swarm of cyberhornets and we are all looking at different things and we have a different target and we will plant our sting into every thing that we see


Let me share a truth with you. All exchanges have ceased legal activities with Iranians. They've implemented KYC and added Iran to their blacklist. They talk about freedom, but their actions are different. They assess Iranians based on their government's performance. We are the main critics of the Islamic regime in Iran. Let's institutionalize the #Bitcoin philosophy. Although thousands have joined today, soon many more will follow, and the world will be freed from the inequalities perpetuated by immature politicians.

Would love to know if you run into any issues on nostr and what we can do to help. I saw something about data issues, so its something i’ve been aggressively working on in the past few days (text only mode)


Fire 🔥


No, I haven't seen any negative things on Nostr yet. After 3 weeks joining here, I really enjoy it and found many supportive and amazing friends.
Keep going 💪


Oh boy ! that mean u are on a agenda cuz everyone knows that hornets have a central commander, a queen. A single point of failure.

Like usual it will fail. Good luck w ur sting things.

Kyc only becomes more intrusive with time and serves nothing but tyranny. The last thing I said to bank manager in Spain before finally getting my funds and leaving the country was:

“You literally know everything and have every bit of paperwork. You seem to be saying that’s not enough for me to have my money. The only thing that is left that you might ask is the girth of my cock. Considering my wife is here, just ask yourself if you fancy fight her cause she won’t appreciate hearing the question”. Finally gave me my funds. KYC is just a scam to steal. But maybe there’s also a problem with acronyms beginning with K seeing as you bring up food.

Let leave KYC and KFC in the rear view mirror!


How might we make nostr more accessible, and easier to use nostr:npub1rt65j4vnd05qf72szpj8afdd5hrkylka7pe55lup8waquv0wm9sqjj0y9g


Yeah I don’t think people don’t care but they don’t want it to be a ton of work and friction and there has to be appeal beyond just decentralization. Dumb sounding stuff like stickers, skins, etc rakes in Fortnite countless $ and it’s totally silly and not even a core function of playing their game.


Welcome!

I wish I knew methods for non-kyc that were faster. Currently it takes me at least 5 business days before I can buy non-KYC. So when the dip comes, I just give in and buy it KYC

Constantly looking for ways to buy BTC without bending over to KY your ....  I'll stop there. Ditto  nostr:npub1r4meyszwh7hpe6yuahunn6329922ukye00cgf7tw6vf0jef4jqqsta3fuh on that point.

If we want to Orange Pill with ease, we have to make the tech invisible and dumb it to "no brain required" level. KISS. Buy. Spend. Save.

Everyone (bar Peter Schiff) has a good idea BTC is a pretty good asset. The difficulty, KYC aside, is knowing what all those confusing address things are and what chain and ... you get the drift.

eg
Scan and tap to buy. Scan and tap to spend. NFC to Cold Storage.
Build together as a "Newbie Pack".
Link to your webportal where they can buy and spend
You have a captive market.

Love  nostr:npub1nz3cd3mx4jf9paxwrdgqvchaprjdge9pj9t58mkusw74q5saajkqu0yxqu comment as well. Build for what you need/want. You know the shortfalls as they exist today. Faraday, Macadam, Dunlop, Baird, Marconi ... all tinkered. Then Edison came up with a bright idea.

The only stupid idea is one that does not get explored.

Unless we brainstorm, build things and break things, we will never find the true capabilities this future offers. Ultimately those making the money today, the way I see it, will be buildiing simple, no fuss, onboarding products, that our cherished elders, would use.

Ai and Robots will probably tells us what we need in the future 🙃

yes, the primal worship is just short-term thinking


Best thing I've read all morning 🔥🔥


What is the primal worship you speak of? Please elaborate for the uninformed.
