What has happened to... zapping? ⚡️ Is it not trendy or convenient anymore? Many posts are 'liked', not that many are appreciated with sats. Do we hodl to our bitcoin that much? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 💥 Let's test Alby relay - responsible for ~40% zaps on Nostr today😎 Leave a comment if you use @getalby.com address for your Nostr - we will exercise, if you can receive them ;) https://m.primal.net/JToS.png
I use Alby and I zap everytime someone posts something that gives me value. Somedays there is a lot of value to be found here, other days is just shitposting so no zaps...
I use it and in a non custodial way which is cool, zaps directly received with my own node 😎
Any privacy tradeoffs in that setup?
Hum I’m not technical at all but I guess if you uses LNURL/lightning addresses you loose all your privacy because it’s a third party server which query the invoice to the recipient node, knowing de facto the pubkey of the payee. So if you don’t use a VPN at least, one can correlate your ID to who you paid so basically no privacy at all. Plus they could even present you a fake invoice paying themselves if they wanted to, so you have to trust them to be honest, or check carefully the invoice before paying it. But at least they never take custody of your funds. This is what I believe but not perfectly sure.
I'm here to zap. Post the latest meme you saved on your device. C'mon. Don't be shy 😄
Last on my device. Zap this, it made me laugh a lot, hope you too 🤣 https://image.nostr.build/bb9e6e30ec476c3b7717691bac8b6c79575127b402d0e68d801b9e2a551fbf6e.jpg
omg 😂
Alby user here. I love 🐝🍯⚡️
Should still be soulexporter@getalby.com ✌️ works like a charm (I think)
Stats from NostrBand show slow decline recently, but it's not tragic.... Any other such stats sites? https://m.primal.net/JTpE.png

The answer to life, the universe … 😁. Thanks!
Still a Alby user 🐝🍯⚡
I'm here guys

It's zappening 🫂 Thanks for ⚡ https://image.nostr.build/d4214b32603d0b7e22c71f266e844092819e29b148e2679de7cb206f25c7387f.jpg
Would definitely try using it but still on a waitlist 🤗
Alby is great! When mobile app??
Almost there! Did you try adding getalbycom as PWA app? https://guides.getalby.com/user-guide/v/alby-account-and-browser-extension/alby-account/connect-to-apps/getalby.com-as-pwa-app
Actually, that's something I've been meaning to test. I think I set alby up as my noster wallet, but I've never tested it.
You need to add your getalbycom Lightning Address in your Nostr profile, so the network knows where to send your zaps!
Okay, I think I got it 👍
Seems like my alby wallet gets disconnected from amethyst (perhaps on update from fdroid), so zaps require frequently relinking of the account. Grrr.
I really like my Getalby address, but I don't like the excessive fees for moving sats from one wallet to another other than Alby. Minibits while being ecash based requires less fees than transactions via lightning.
I love the work you guys do . Full stop. But trying to force fit nostr and zaps all the time is kinda cringe. We should learn from Naval.
Yes, we have become a little more stingy and demanding lately. But I always empty my Lightning and when I get something back in, I keep zapping.
Btw, Alby has awesome personal support. Even in matters relating to interaction with other technologies. Not the back-and-forth shifting of responsibilities known from fiat software support departments. nostr:note1cjq43e7eepdcdvd5aaxukxrg83za7cm7pq5xx2j8d9qgv5pt7lusqqtahq
I use Alby for a long time now and it works like a charm 🧡🐝🍀👍! It's like magic ... Alby-cadabra and the Sats are flying around like Lightning-Bees ... https://image.nostr.build/8b5c49098ee5a28fe645e255768d4f7ccdc76fbd1003fd55e79b4721ad7045c3.jpg
Apple banned it, had a break, came back so many new options. Feels weird, nothing it concrete.
Well, I do use nandubatchu@getalby.com for my #nostr #zaps
heeeyyyy💜💜💜🙏😋
I'm not sure if I can receive them...someone told me I hit my limit on receiving LN transactions through Alby? I'm not sure what that means 😅
I think we messaged you with explanation! Limits of legacy accounts are described at https://getalby.com/usage You should already get onto our Hub! Come to the onboarding session https://cal.com/getalby/alby-hub-group-onboarding
I’ve been using Alby for a while and it works great! I think zaps are changing from replacing the “like” button to more of a “tip” for people actually putting out content. You wouldn’t tip someone for having a conversation with you, but you would tip a musician that entertained you. I think that’s what’s happening.
Smallest zaps amount to so little, so well articulated thought, interesting take or just nice words are worth a ⚡ Longer text with deeper knowledge or pondering some random subjects I find interesting deserve a proper ⚡ Problem is that as follows list grows, it becames harder to decide who to ⚡ because I can only give so much. 🤷🏻
Do you have a invite link to spare 😂 would love to get on Alby
Hey, dm me your e-mail I'll send you one! You can also sign up at https://getalby.com/waitlist, it should open this week
I can receive rn but can’t send https://i.nostr.build/RUdHCxU3FbMoOUBd.jpg
looks like their relay is having some problems https://m.primal.net/JUHR.png https://nostr.watch/relay/relay.getalby.com/v1
Sad day /:
😂 well, they did ask people to test it 😂
I'm using nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszxthwden5te0wfjkccte9eekummjwsh8xmmrd9skctcpzamhxue69uhkzarvv9ejumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcyflj58 thanks to the great tutorials on th website. I even managed to connect it with nostr:nprofile1qqsrf5h4ya83jk8u6t9jgc76h6kalz3plp9vusjpm2ygqgalqhxgp9gpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt4w35ku7thv9kxcet59e3k7mgpzemhxue69uhkkmr0vd4k2mn8vyh8xmmrd9skcqguwaehxw309ahx7um5wghxy6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skctylktc And frankly, I'm too much of a noob to get anything else up and running...
I zap numerous posts every day. Do you? (also could be an onboarding issue still. It's hard to get sats into people's hands and in an easily accessible lightning wallet to this day. MUCH easier, but still generally hard) nostr:note1cjq43e7eepdcdvd5aaxukxrg83za7cm7pq5xx2j8d9qgv5pt7lusqqtahq
I zap from @Breez :)
I zap and I do it with Alby + NWC 🌽⚡🚀
🙏 ⚡️ marcelo@getalby.com
I zapped all my zaps away. I get MAYBE 100 sats a day in zaps, which only provides me with enough sats to zap 4 notes at 21 sats each. Too poor my guy.

I just signed up and got my @getalby address working last night 😁
My ⚡️ address is glen@glencooper.com, but that is also my email address. I have it set up to automatically forward zaps to that address to my alby address 1glenco@getalby.com
Put it in my veins
charliesurf@getalby.com
cryptoni9n@getalby.com I always get this Alby error when trying to zap: Error: 400: Please configure your funding source. I have funded a Mutiny wallet but I've been unable to get it to work with Alby.
ok zap only for now on. I started liking instead of zapping out of sheer laziness nostr:note1cjq43e7eepdcdvd5aaxukxrg83za7cm7pq5xx2j8d9qgv5pt7lusqqtahq
Loads of legit comments… Different people, different reasons why to or not to. I’m an Alby user and fan.

zapity zap zap
People hodling harder because supply shock is about to be felt
I use Alby. What's this Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC) focused self-sovereign wallet called Alby Hub that everyone is talking about? Custody sunsetting woot woot

Good service!

Shouldn’t you guys like… post an official announcement about the upcoming rug pull?
Announcement soon, but there won't be any rug pull. Bees are benevolent!
Well that’s good news! There are rumors abuzz that alby as a free custodial lightning wallet will go bye-bye in the US. Glad to hear that won’t be happening
