 I have cobbled together ~650 of my follow list out of 1600 or so. That's a lot of button pushing.... 
 that's a great idea. It would also be nice to see which people follow you back, after you click on your following tab and then be able to unfollow the people that aren't following back with one click, like on twitter.

 If NOSTR is so great, why aren't there any beautiful Asian women asking me about my trades in my private messages? 
 We need Bitcoin ONLY gas stations that sell scratch off tickets, but instead of losing all of your money, you win different amounts of SATs each time you scratch off a part. You may win more or less, but you always win, because it's Bitcoin.

This is the future, you can't stop it. 
 I transmitted almost a million freedom units to a fellow Nostrich earlier today without a license... 
 "Freedom Units" 👍  
 On Primal, when you try to highlight a part of text for copy paste or to search it, it automatically clicks on the post and then you have to hit the back button.

Is there anyway to turn that off? 
 Hello Nostr.

All Bitcoin Haters Wear Panties

Have a good day. 
 I'm curious to find out what the report button does on Nostr, but there aren't any scammers or spammers trying to interact with me here(this isn't an invite btw 😂 ). 

I block them on twitter, because we all know reporting imitators(fraud accounts), spammers and scammers on twitter does nothing at all.  
 How to get rid of "You must enable DRM to play audio or video on this page."

Go to about:config and change browser.eme.ui.enabled to false 
 I just posted a question about that, to see if others had the same issue. It looks like Elon is forcing us to use Nostr now.😂  
 Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like twitter is being redirected to the x domain now and it stopped working on firefox? 

Is anyone else having that issue? 
 So if energy is money and money is energy, does that mean i need to be a licensed money transmitter to put aaa batteries in my tv remote? 
  @primal Twitter shows if the people you're following also follow you back. That would be a great feature to have.  Will that feature be implemented soon? 
 I have a Nostr idea.

Everyone loves a good Twitter thread, but they can be difficult to copy or archive. 

It would be nice to have a Twitter/X bot that you could tag, that would cross post the entire thread to Nostr. This would allow for easy archiving of the thread. You could print to pdf or just copy the text to a file without having to rely on third party options that start out free, but then once popularized, start charging people.

The bot could collect SAT donations instead.
Good idea? 
 It doesn't have to be a twitter bot. You could tag the nostr archive bot on nostr with the twitter link and it would repost the thread or maybe a direct message options could be utilized and the thread sent to your inbox. The process could also be done over direct message entirely without the need to tag the bot.

 Normies stacking fiat currency https://m.primal.net/HrEF.mp4  
 normalize calling fiat dollars "fiat dollars" everywhere you go. When they say "sir that will be 100 dollars" you say "okay, here's 100 fiat dollars"

Don't even call it money anymore.

 nice post, that was very well written.  
 Elon disabled comments under tweets unless you're logged in.
Now you can't verify that you're shadow banned.

 Money Printers devalue fiat currency
Bitcoin devalues the devaluation of fiat currency.  
 Since they nuked the API, don't think so 😭 
 They can rug pull our accounts and engagement, but we can't rug pull our content. 
 I think Nostr needs more users, not more microblogging features. 
 why not both?

 I think mp3s are a better choice. 
The file size is much smaller and you can host them cheaply. 
Unless you absolutely need video, mp3 is the way to go. 
You can host a lot of your mp3s on centralized services like google drive and link them here. You get the benefit of using their bandwidth for free, without them getting any ad revenue.
