 If we just add our project AUTH relay to Nostrudel or Primal, or something, we'll be constantly cross-posting and broadcasting all over the place. 
 I need a GUI. We're just using relay.tools, right now. 
 I guess this is just me hitting the wall of there being no community clients. 
 Everything is design for individual npubs. 
 Guess most devs are prebiotic soup maximalists 😅🤷 
 They're all really rabid, just like their boss. 😂 

...and then we will all be anons and use single-use npubs and encrypt every Bitcoin meme... 
 I thought this was a community solution

 Let me ask the guys about that one. I think it might be too big and complex, again. We're already running so many servers. 🙈 
 We just need a simple fkn chat. Connect to a single relay. Auth and send messages. That's really it for now.  
 I think only @cloud fodder has that, with relay.tools 

🤷‍♀️ 
 well, if all you need is profiles to show on relay.tools, you just have to get those profiles broadcasted to the relay you're on.. you can do that kind of thing with nak (it supports auth)

nak req --kind 0 -a <authorpub> wss://purplepag.es | nak event --auth wss://targetrelay 
 Yeah, I just see hex ids for most of the users, so I have no idea who I'm talking to. 
 there is an extension https://github.com/TsukemonoGit/nake 
 i have a new organic relay for profiles, maybe i should do some magic for trex 🦖(the relay explorer) to source profiles from there.. but then it wouldnt be as pure. 🦖🦖🦖😅

profiles.nostr1.com 
 Can someone make a #nostr relay .deb app for #linux?

So running a nostr relay becomes as easy as running a bitcoin node

And also integrate a lightning wallet into the bitcoin core app? 
 Yes, you can do that. 
 I wish I could, but I don’t know any coding 😩

And this is pretty advanced stuff to build 
 Spread it out there, perhaps someone will pick up on the idea/concept 
 Maybe as an optional button? 🤔 
 Oh right, yeah kind of forgot about that part. 
 i added an option to nak so you can source your private key from an environment variable (for auth operations) i recommend this, do not leak your key into command line history 🍄 
 My key never leaves it's vault, for good or bad :) burner nsecs only. I don't even want it available in the memory of my local machine  
 One other option would be to fork nostrudel/snort and remove default relays. Should be a simple and small change. 
 Ah, that's probably the easiest path, thanks!

Would need Next, for the AUTH. 
 Nevermind. Next is barely working for me, now and is too complex.
