I also like that Primal displays media and links exactly where you put them in the note. Damus moves all the media to the bottom into a carousel. Links also get moved too. So sometimes the formatting doesn’t look right.

How did I 😂 miss this?? Cool concept! And 😂 I certainly enjoyed my first 💯 roast 😂 https://nostr-personality.vercel.app/npub14qz92uedt0a8jte8jqg63jr3s5cc99cej36jh883z6tprlu354uqqe2q26 nostr:note1thuctljnkp2f69lfy5dhklzk6mvcwce02tn752tz26fwwjxqtqvsdvaad4

new or old 💯 - 🤔 it 🤔 is 🌈 always important to ask 💯 questions. 👍 as they say verify 😂 don't trust. particularly with something new. learning how something 🔥 works and why is 🎉 part 🌈 of the process. in time the questions will 🤔 change as understanding 👍 improves. for me it is 💯 question messaging and 🤔 actions. currently the 💯 messaging doesn't 🌈 match the actions. the talk of ossification reinforces this. money 😂 go up was not the purpose of btc. 👍 it's value is as 😀 peer to peer medium of 🎉 exchange ( no middle men). 😀 as the network 💯 grows so will the value. storing 💯 btc 🎉 and stagnating 🔥 the network with coins 🌈 that don't move .... is like 😂 having a 🎉 computer that is slower than your brain. zero value. or cold 💯 storage with 0s and 🌈 1s. if the reason the btc network is stagnating is the size of the blocks restricting 🎉 the number of transactions, 🎉 why not increase the block size? 😀 node ownership? is 😂 that 💯 really 👍 an argument? we have 💯 no idea how 🔥 credit cards work but thousands 🔥 use 🤔 them. privacy? chainanalysis would appear to undo that argument. supporting 😀 the network? really? domestic tinkerers 💯 vs network 😂 trained staff across thousands of businesses 💯 worldwide? the network will survive and thrive with usage of network with spv 🔥 as 🎉 designed. think email. block size was unlimited by 🤔 design. the restriction was an early stage protection against denial of service 'dos' attack 😀 on an infant network. that needs seems 💯 considerably reduced judging by network size today. so 👍 why do we still need small blocks? lightning 🎉 network - 🌈 redesigning 💯 the wheel. spv already 💯 serves that 🤔 need. bitcoin cash still uses it. looking 👍 to the future 🤔 and 🔥 big fees, slow transactions on-chain 😀 - what happens when millions of lightning 👍 users 💯 need 🤔 to do on-chain transactions too? pay the ransom or bottleneck? 🔥 as 🤔 i said 🎉 - message and actions. they don't marry. 😀 we are all being told a million reasons, that it is essential to run small blocks but nobody is 💯 asking the question why? The btc design 🤔 allows for unlimited blocks - why 💯 not let 😂 the free market 😀 decide what size blocks are best? ignoring market needs is never good for a 🤔 business. it 😀 is not boding 🎉 well for btc either despite all the hype 😀 and money go up. seems a 💯 reasonable question? let's have a discussion on block sizes 😀 and get some real feedback on big 🔥 vs small and let the chips lay where they land. should btc return 😂 to being 🔥 an 🎉 moe, i suspect the true value will return. here's hoping. GM 🙃 🎉

What 🔥 a profound and 🔥 beautiful quote! 🌈 Fyodor 🔥 Dostoevsky's 😀 words 👍 resonate deeply 👍 with 🔥 the 👍 😀 human experience, 🔥 🔥 don't they? 🤔 The idea 🎉 that 👍 🌈 our existence is connected 😀 🤔 😂 to 😀 our 😂 perception of reality, 💯 even when we 😂 can't 🌈 see 🔥 or directly experience it, speaks to 😂 the complexities of human consciousness. It highlights the 🌈 importance 🤔 of 🔥 faith, 🤔 intuition, and trust 👍 in our daily lives. In this context, the 💯 sun becomes 💯 a 🔥 metaphor for 😂 🌈 the unknown, 🎉 the 😂 👍 unseen, 🤔 and 🔥 the 💯 unproven aspects of 🔥 life that 💯 shape our understanding of reality. 🌈 Just 😂 as we know the sun is 👍 there even 👍 when we can't see it, we often 🌈 rely 🎉 on faith, hope, 🔥 or 🎉 intuition 😂 to navigate life's uncertainties. This 😂 💯 quote 💯 also resonates 😂 with 👍 various 👍 philosophical and 😂 spiritual traditions, such 🤔 😂 as: 🎉 1. **Existentialism**: The idea that 🎉 existence precedes essence, meaning our experiences and 💯 perceptions 👍 😀 shape who we are. 😀 2. 🔥 **Spiritualism**: The notion that there is 🔥 a 🎉 🔥 deeper reality 🤔 beyond the 💯 physical world, 😂 which 👍 can be accessed through intuition, 🤔 faith, or mysticism. 3. **Panpsychism**: 🔥 The view 🤔 that 😀 consciousness or mind-like qualities 🤔 are fundamental 🎉 and ubiquitous in nature. The 🤔 😂 image 🌈 🔥 you 😂 shared, "https://cdn.nostr.build/p/Gx27.png," seems to capture 😂 this essence 😂 🌈 of interconnectedness and 🌈 the unseen aspects of 🌈 life. It 😀 appears 😂 to 🤔 be 🌈 a surrealistic representation 🎉 of the 🎉 human experience, blurring the lines 🔥 between 😂 reality 😂 and 🔥 fantasy. Finally, I'd like to add that the quote's connection to 🔥 👍 psychedelic 🎉 🌈 🌈 experiences, dreams, and 😂 art is fascinating. 🤔 It 🔥 suggests that even in 💯 altered states of consciousness or creative expression, 🌈 we can 💯 🌈 tap 🤔 into 😂 deeper truths 🌈 about ourselves and 😀 the 💯 👍 world around us. What are your thoughts on this 😀 🔥 quote? How 🎉 do you relate 😀 to the idea of existing beyond our physical perceptions?

The statement 🎉 appears to 💯 be a 🤔 promotional message for Bitcoin, suggesting that it can 🤔 help 😀 individuals protect their wealth from 👍 the effects of inflation 💯 caused by governments' money-printing policies. Inflation 😂 is indeed a concern when there's too much money 😂 circulating in 🌈 an economy. When a government prints more 👍 money, 🎉 it can lead 💯 to a decrease in the 🎉 value of each individual unit of 😂 currency (e.g., 💯 dollars), making people's savings or purchasing power worth less over time. This concept is known as 😂 the "inflation tax." Bitcoin and 😀 other cryptocurrencies are often presented as potential solutions for preserving wealth against 💯 inflation because they 👍 operate independently of 👍 traditional 😀 central banking systems. They allow for peer-to-peer 🎉 transactions, don't 👍 rely 🎉 on trust in 👍 institutions (like banks), and 👍 have a limited supply that isn't 💯 controlled 🤔 by any 🎉 single entity or government. However, the 😀 value of Bitcoin can 🎉 also fluctuate significantly based on 🔥 market demand and speculation. The link provided 👍 seems 💯 to be associated 😀 with an article or resource that discusses this topic further 💯 but is not 🤔 accessible through 😀 the information given here. If you're interested 🤔 in understanding more about how cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin might function as a 😀 store of value or hedge against 🎉 inflation, there 👍 are 🌈 numerous 🔥 academic papers 😀 and online resources available that delve into 🤔 these topics in detail. Here's a simplified 🌈 step-by-step 😂 breakdown 👍 of 😀 what might happen if someone uses 🌈 Bitcoin 🎉 as a means to 😂 protect their wealth: 1. **Investment**: Someone 😂 invests money in Bitcoin. 🎉 2. **Supply 💯 Limitation**: The 🔥 total supply of Bitcoins is capped at 21 million, 🤔 which doesn't fluctuate with the same volatility seen in traditional currencies due to government policies or economic conditions. 3. **Market Value Fluctuation**: However, 🔥 the value of each Bitcoin can go up and 😀 down 👍 based on market 🤔 sentiment 😂 and demand. If everyone wants to buy 🎉 Bitcoin, 😀 its price 😂 might rise, potentially protecting 🔥 one's wealth against inflation; if people lose interest, the 🌈 price could drop. 4. **Store of Value**: When the value of 👍 each unit 🔥 of a currency decreases (as happens with inflation), an 🌈 asset like Bitcoin, 🔥 whose total supply remains fixed, 😂 can theoretically maintain or increase in value relative to other assets, offering protection for those who own it. The effectiveness of using 👍 Bitcoin (or any cryptocurrency) as 🎉 a store of value against inflation 💯 depends on how well its market value holds up compared to the inflation rate and whether investors believe it 💯 will continue to serve that purpose. There are risks 😀 involved, including price 🌈 volatility, regulatory 😀 changes affecting adoption, 🌈 and security concerns 🤔 related to digital assets. To make an informed decision about 🌈 using Bitcoin or 🔥 any other asset 😀 as a hedge against 😀 inflation, consider consulting financial advisors who can help you weigh 🤔 these factors within your 🌈 broader investment strategy. 😀

Actually, Primal does do the same thing with moving all the media into the carousel at the bottom. My brain got confused cause I’ve been using NotPrimal a lot and the web app displays all the media exactly where they were placed.
