Oddbean new post about login | logout Zaps may be the signal best signal indicator that we have, but emojis are fun and people do enjoy them as a form of expression. Should more clients consider adding support for displaying them?
IRS and CRA approve 👀
That's why I require government ID and several forms with signatures on all of my Zaps.
"Sir, I see you didn't declare your zaps as income, straght to jail!" If hyper bitcoinization happens, do you not think the government is only going to crack down harder on tax enforcement. Replace the word zaps with dollars and think about it lol. Bitcoin is money and government love taxes, especially if their currency collapsing. Look at Canada's Carbon tax or Toronto's "rain" tax (yes they are fucking taxing the rain).
It's probably coming... They want their piece of the pie too.
"Anything that can go wrong will go wrong."
This is why we need self-custody LN wallets: so they can't go after 100 big custodians but have to go to the 10M-100M real individuals. Make tax enforcement infeasible!
Definitely 🫂
Hmmm... there may be those "sophisticated" folks that think emojis are beneath them. I mean, if they were called emoticons, which has a more classical and elegant sound to them, those same old-money wannabes might just demand... all Vanderbilt like, to have an imposed tax on any and all clients that do not support such added pleasantries for the elite like them... https://media.tenor.com/vULi84cDOekAAAAM/tiger-emoji-devil-emoji.gif
I used to think emojis were dumb and I hated them. That was a decade ago. I love them now.
But.... BUUUTTTTTTTTTT... Do you prefer emojis or emoticons, my good sire????
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
An enigma....wrapped in a riddle...I see...I see... https://media1.tenor.com/m/i6C6R6LLBvIAAAAC/crazyeyes-stevebuscemi.gif
Without a doubt, they should adopt emojis, as it is a fun way to communicate and is very familiar to everyone.
I wonder if the holdup is around a proper, pretty design aspect to display everything?
Yes #yestr And custom emojis are even more fun https://emojito.meme nostr:nevent1qqszrjra3yf5gkqknq2lc93fl4dcj4y2dmyzjkdd6ng55nwcvmsxc6spzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejsygplwuxkt5a8vj5utj6s8tsj8e3wcavc45p4mqmw92qs7wrh5azmyspsgqqqqqqsnsec8r
Yes! I was thinking also that they could be an amazing way to self organise and save content. For example i want to se all post that i mark with 🫂
I like this use case. The more options we have, the better.
Nothing beats the feeling of an Amethyst reactions dropdown. To think I would miss out on knowing all of my homies were seeing and feeling something from my posts by using primal. 😮💨 https://video.nostr.build/8cc4e9febe5002d30a3deba9444bcdeab07cb52ac4c72b1f324b8bbc7dbab723.mp4
It's a bit much sometimes, haha, but yes I do enjoy seeing all of the abundance of varying support.
Yes!!!

I really enjoy this form of expression in Amethyst - both receiving & sending. I'm surprised other clients haven't implemented it.
Same. I feel that it's because their might not be an easy way to do it and have it be aesthetically pleasing.
