Oddbean new post about login | logout Boom! I have been wanting to try this for ages and I didn’t realize @Alby was going to make this doable. It’s basically nsecBunker but for your Lightning node. I can set budgets, timeouts, limited access, etc for certain apps really easy. And even though the “disconnect wallet” button at the bottom of this is strangely placed and I almost reflexively tapped it twice while change my percentage, I am jazzed to see @damus attempt the “support with a % of zaps” idea. Been wanting to do this for a while and having specific rules for each app makes it really easy. The value of Nostr Wallet Connect here is hard to overvalue. This is a fucking cool setup. https://i.nostr.build/PictX3p5OksejpTX.jpg
Alby Hub paired on mobile with Alby Go is similarly amazing on your own node e.g. Start9 for one-click install... you can now easily onboard your kids or other family/friends, give them an allowance, and let them stack sats, all in Uncle Jim style! In the background, you do the channel management for your node...
So I was playing around with Alby Hub on my own node the other day and when I went to create separate Alby Go users it seemed a little more complicated than say lnbits accounts. Seemed to want me to set them up with nostr keys and such as well. Was that all required or optional if I plan to have them only interface with lightning network to start anyways?
And immediately after I say this @damus is having a bug. 😆 When I try to connect to the NWC address (which I think is confusing btw when Albyhub says “pairing secret” - might be useful to just say scan or something?) the camera never loads it just immediately gives a “no response” error as if it tried to connect and the device didn’t respond. @jb55
Can you check you allowed the camera permission in ios settings -> Damus?
@TheGuySwann Can you kindly confirm suggestion by @roland If that doesnt work, can you add screenshots or video recording here: https://github.com/nostrability/nostrability/issues/114
Ok @Alby is it in the LND side or the albyhub side that fails to decode an invoice without an explicit sats amount? I would love that if it's something you guys can implement. 🙏 (I can't send to CashApp otherwise) nostr:note1u9junh84ssjfc3vvz4aplc4z45hrnl9xssc3wdwue3aza2jvmn7qvxmvgu
Yeah nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0s8jq7y6 hub is pretty much the UX that is needed for Regular Joe even if he want’s to become Uncle Jim. 👌
Eh not regular joe, but close. I would say this is the UI for the prosumer computer guy. I can’t still see a lot of areas where someone will feel confused or overwhelmed. It’s hard AF to make the complexity of all of these tools intuitive and simple. But they’ve made an incredible step in the right direction and showed how good it can be if designed right.
