is there any way to customize Amethyst notifications to make reaction notifications appear, well, differently?

they always look sorta big and i find myseld looking for the reply, but only see my own note, and it throws me. like i think it's just a UI thing, not a bug, just not used to it. but still, would be nice to reduce so it's just "npub liked noteID" rather than the existimg big space it takes up.

now that's a good feeling 🤝


does this increase resilience/censorship-resistance? or is it just "technically better"/more efficient/etc.?


thank you


🍁 so pretty


madex makes some of the coolest fucking art i've seen in a while. if you'll pardon my french.


Yo, just did some math

At the current energy price (and excluding the upfront CapEx, i.e. ASICs), I am stacking pristine, KYC-FREE sats at an 18% discount to today's market price.

And while price doesn't matter, being able to accumulate more bitcoin-per-labor-hour-worked feels good. Real good.

I heard them described as "wild sats" the other day. I liked that. Gotta catch em all 🫡

oh i downloaded FlorisBoard. it's better than the stock graphene option but still not great. (iOS keyboard has no competition tbh)

i edited my lightning address - mind giving it another shot? 🙏


is Nodestrich telegram-only? or is there a more private chat space?


ok i'll take a look now. but mine came through to you?


glad i wasn't the only one!

i recently updated my zap/NWC setup. Would you mind telling me whether my zap came through on your note?


yo, i wanted to follow up and say i downloaded and have been using Gossip, and it's downright brilliant. great rec!


reposting for time zones, and because i'm feeling proud of the note 💜

also, since i haven't spent a ton of time engaging, i've found that my following feed (and interactions with my own notes) both tend to feel a bit sleepy

is the best way around this simply to talk to more people, follow more accounts, make more frens, and post better content? i still feel sort of "new" here #introductions

is there any relay reconfiguration i should also consider, if i want a more robust and active Nostr social experience? #asknostr

and as i said, i'm reluctant to use hashtags as a general rule... (they often feel trendy-cringe/cliche, or like engagement farming). but in this case i'm hoping to expand my connections here, so screw it...

finally, are there any "off-the-beaten-path" accounts i should follow, either plebs who are active daily but not particularly well-followed, or any "content creators" that you personally enjoy reading notes from (outside of the bitcoin space because i think i've got that covered LOL)

thanks, Nostr 🤘

i FINALLY figured out how to see who reacted to your note in amethyst. little downward carrot on the bottom-left.

it only took me a few months 🤫


Have a great weekend 🤘


also, something sort of cool happened for me this week.

i took two RoboSats orders and purchased some satoshis from a prolific Nostr dev whom i  have long admired. at least judging from his username on the fiat platform (and it's not a common name).

i didn't mention anything to him, out of respect for his privacy. didn't want to make him feel nervous/doxxed/anything like that (although i couldn't help but sign off with a "PV" and a 🤙.

anyway, first time that's happened, and then twice in a row. just thought this was very cool: as i understand it, it's still rare to encounter a nostrich in the wild.


i hang on Nostr a lot, but it's rare that i post here.

so, i wanted to take a moment to express my awe and appreciation for the people here.

the devs are building ingenius freedom tools. and fun features.

the plebs (including each unique individual here, side-by-side with many brilliant "large-following-on-twitter-but-here-just-one-of-us" writers and thinkers) all hang out together and manifest this free, funny, and open community.

i would not have expected that an online social space could ever actually regain the respectful, thoughtful, authentic nature of engagement that we've discovered and created here on Nostr.

it's a breath of fresh air, a sight for sore eyes, and i can't fully express how extraordinary this is. thank you - to every one of you.

i'm not normally big on hashtags... but #grownostr and #plebchain feel quite appropriate today 🫂💜⚡🤝🤙

Damnnn this thing is sleek 🔥

Funny yours was the first note in my feed upon opening Amethyst, Ava -- I signed on to ask you about the sandboxed Google Play Services on GrapheneOS (as i believe it was yesterday i read some well-thought-out comments of yours about Obtanium and F-Droid, and i trust your judgment).

Anyway, google play, Yay/nay/may(be)?

Any major privacy risks?

Many thanks in advance 🙏


It's an evolution thing - both Darwinian, and spiritual, I'd wager.

Example: the immediate physiological reward from sugar - we just discovered and consumed an intense and highly available form of energy. Good.

But that used to require sticking one's hand into a beehive, or cutting a hole in a maple tree and waiting (etc.), and so we never evolved to process large sugar intake in a healthy way.

Yet it's readily available, everywhere, always. The animal brain wants more. That's natural.

The spiritual (call it what you will) evolution requires disintangling one's action from those desires (and fears), to instead move from a place of self/mindfulness/balance.

We're all still in school 🧘♂


Ghost is offering some of the best privacy advice on Nostr in recent memory. Read it.

nostr:nevent1qqsr37frp42wpg0k78h8q77cec84zem3rkkjsmeza8rsq3hn5u28l2cpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0qgsrkl7gyds37xh2af37uwlknvjm32ska3hgr5d0cwgzdqy0ux2r2ncrqsqqqqqpjlmftc


When I realized this, this was pretty much the reason I got so into self-hosting everything I  possibly can and have taken large efforts to de-Google myself and not use large corporate tech. It's also why at the bare minimum I'm always using a VPN or other sort of privacy technologies to connect to the general internet.

I understand that some people won't go to the same extremes that I have done. That's fine, but at least be aware of this fact. So many people act so blasé about it that it's genuinely concerning for me as I see the landscape of mainstream tech getting worse and worse.

Amethyst putting a scrolling video feed as the primary Global experience is very clever. Attract the instagram/tiktok style scrollers.

It also works very smoothly. Couple it with a marketplace for algorithms and you have your feature replacement (improvement!).

Nice work 🔥

I don't know much about these radio projects, but interested to learn more.

So pardon the silly question, but what do/can you do with it?


Is this one of those LoRa mesh radios? If not, what isnit/what can it be used for?

You got my gear geek gears turning 🤘


Stunning shot 🤩


Thiught so


So with RoboSats, it tries to pay 3 times and then requests a new invoice. But my payment has been on the first attempt all day, and my LN node is def online


tippy lmk if my two zaps landed (21 and 500) because if not then my M+ NWC is broken ⚡


And fans zap your TIPNZ's because they kick ass


Thought it got closed but thanks i'll check. Can you have telegram without a phone number though?

They werent responsivd via SimpleX either


Lol thanks


Preach it brother


Ok and also i need help from RoboSats but i cant tag a user on amethyst using grapheneOS. Maybe if i just paste the npub...

How do i get ahold of a coordinator when my lightning invoice has been "paying" for 3 hours?

Ya, there are a few trolls and bigots. Have you ever met the internet? Fuck those guys for sure, but most of nostr is great.

You work your whole life to earn money that other people can print for free

Then they start taking a % of all the money you've earned too

Then they use all that money to build as big of a military industrial complex as possible, so they can supply weapons to every side of every war on earth, to make even more money.

Does this sound like a fair system that will create a brighter future for our kids, grandkids, and beyond?

If not...why kick the can down the road for them to deal with, when we can draw a hard fucking line in the sand TODAY, and be the generation that stops screwing over future ones for our own selfish convenience, and actually bites the bullet to fix the root problem?

Excllent. Pleasure to meet you too!

What kind of architecture do you do, if you don't mind my asking? It was one of my "possible paths" when i was younger, but i ended up taking a different road. It's always struck me as a really cool line of work!


Had this conversation with a friend yesterday - this was his view in a nutshell. Rock on 🤘


Lol

After exploring this hashtag for a sold 30 mins last week, i kind of figured that out.

Is it used for getting your content in front of like-minded users, or just more for meeting other bitcoiners?


Hey Nostr rockstars 🤘

It's been a few days since i logged on, but been following recent developments via the likes of Citadel Dispatch and RHR on zap.stream so i guess that counts.

The Samourai Wallet news hit me hard. I largely steered clear of the drama over the years, and i can't speak to whether they broke any laws.

But they built a tool that hundreds - if not thousands - of human rights activists and freedom fighters used to protect their families' privacy and safety. If law enforcement does deanonymize these users' transactions (and I fear that they will), it is incumbent upon them to carefully guard (ie encrypt or destroy) that data. I'm not optimistic.

 We must defend our own privacy if we are tk havy any...Let us proceed together apace. Onward.

What a name! There are so many clients it seems, can be hard to keep track lol


What client do you normally use?


When politicians create fiat money, at will, out of thin air, it means the citizens of that country effectively lose their freedom to object to war. If a government must sell war bonds and/or rsise taxes to fund a war, the citizenry will only support it (and buy the bonds, and comply with the tax hikes) if that war poses an existential threat to those people, themselves.

With fiat, governments are incentivized to print money and funnel it into "causes" (whether these causes are righteous or not is beside the point), in order to fund the corporations, lobbyists, super PACs, war industry, etc, who will keep those politicians in power.

The incentives are simply broken.

I'm trying to get more comfortable using hashtags here. They have often seemed a bit superficial to me, at least wth previous social media systems... But, as a way to find and organize content, I see the utility of it.

Facts


How was everybody's weekend?

The halving (my first!) was a bigger deal than I thought it would be. I expected a "NYE ball drop" type of event, with the accompanying anticlimactic end.

Instead, it felt very significant. Bearing witness to an event so fundamental to what Bitcoin is, and why it works, was a profound experience -- and even more so while sharing it with a few other people who also recognize and appreciate the halving's importance.

Oh, and my "computers" don't seem to be making as money as they did last week 🤔


America promises to sell weapons to the oil-producing nations of the middle east, in exchange for these nations to refuse any curremcy except dollars for theif oil, forcing the rest of the world to demand dollars with which to buy energy.

At least, that's the gist as I understand it :/


Yessss! One last ask and then it's perfect. Could they be "laser beam" style shooting forward (kind of like your pfp)? Zapping anyway for the work so far ❤


You both have a sense of humor 😂 is it like a data download issue?


This is amazing!! May I request two tweaks? I'm partial to the more sepia/antique color scheme of the original image, and while I'm a full-time believer  in "don't trust verify," I kind of prefer it as just the graphic (unless the text is your watermark which is totally fair). Thanks for doing this, M!!


New amethyst user here - why is that?


I cant stand engagement-farming, and even the phrase "follower" kinda rubs me the wring way... but how does a new user build up their network and start new conversations?

What are the vibes like on Nostr, say, on Monday or a weekday vs the weekend? Does it change? Is it busier during certain periods?

I imagine if it's a global network then it's never really asleep... what have been peoples' experience thus far?


Absolutely fucking not


Read this as "Batman"... twice...


Great song


Thanks for the warning. I recently swapped my federsted eCash into my lightning channel. Is there any way to swap back? It's only a few thousand sats


Thanks for this heads up!


Thanks! That's a great way to think about it 😂


Hahaha yeah I'm about 36 hours in if my math is right


It's a cool world


Aw thanks


Thank you!!


Thank you nostr, for a great first day on nostr.

I get it 🔥


Ok, guess that makes sense. I'd have guessed a mobile node like phoenix would be pretty well-connected, but im still figuring out how it all works under the hood


Is it just me or does Mutiny Wallet have a hard time sending or receiving more than small lightning payments under like 1K sats?


Mine went thru! Only took 3 hours lol


Thanks! Can't tell if it worked this time, did you get one?


Next to "me" and "friends" go to "requests" then "create"


Glad they returned at least. Lightning can be... funny... like that


I dont blame ya

Worked to zap Demon though it seems


I clicked "open in nostr clientx from mutiny and it switched over ti Amethyst with all the info auto-filled so that's a start!

Okay now how do i set up the wallet connection so that i can send zaps using the ⚡ button on posts?

Woah! The moment I signed up for Mutiny Plus and set a lightning address, it was automatically populated within my Amethyst settings!? That's straight-up amazing!!!

Moment of truth... am I zap-able?


Hey mine just showed up lol


Deal 🤝


Frustrating yes, still no channel 🙃


Thanks! Working on it ;)


There was a button/CTA to join a recommended fed, this was second in the list. What if you go to the settings sidebar and click federations?

Try this invite code

Look fine to me, waddya mean?


Working on that! Thank you :)


I tried joining Freedom One, but have yet to receive the channel opening payment so I'm feeling less trusty, more verify-y at the moment


Tried to open a decent-sized channel on my new Mutiny wallet. Lightning Payment from Phoenix has been pending for 30 minutes... No sats in mutiny. What's up?


Mutiny node connectivity issues? I feel like it's usually that when multiple users can't connect to a LSP sort of thing... Right?


Gotcha. I just tried to send about 1M SATs from Phoenix tonmynnew mutiny acct via lightning but it hasn't reflected any change. Is it waiting for a channel confirmation? If so, it would be good to indicate that to the user waiting for his funds to arrive ;)


Sounds good. I typically go in skeptical-but-open-minded, so I appreciate the content


That's a fair point. But which one (since Alby isn't taking new users, wallet of satoshi shut down, strike is KYC, and it looks like Primal.net needs me to make another new nostr account) lol


Can anyone animate tiny little laser eyes onto my PFP? Will pay a lightning QR invoice (or zap invoice if I can get that figured out) if someone can make them look sick


Trying to set up Mutiny for self custody lightning and a zappable profile. Am I missing anything? Happy to pay for the service because its already so smooth and sexy, but is this the only way to be a semi-self-sovereign nostr noob?

It also looks like a lightning address is only available to paid users, which I'm definitely gonna do but I would imagine is friction for new nostr users... Or is there another way to send and receive zaps using Mutiny without the paid test flight configuration?


Thanks - will give it a watch


Lol sounds great

I'm looking at the "freedom one" federation which looks recommended by tony, Odell, Ben, and a couple of other familiar faces so let's go with that...


How do I identify a high quality federation? Does mutiny have an official/starter kit kind of thing?

Perhaps a question for you, tony?


OK thanks - I've listened to a handful of interviews with Tony and Ben on CD & bitcoin.review and they don't seem like type to rug social media account handles lol

And mutiny the wallet is completely open source right? Not that I could review the code but presumably a handful of people here have


(I lean pretty hard to the full nym, self custodial, kyc-free approach whenever possible)


Is it safe to put my private key into Mutiny to set up a wallet that is automatically connected to my nostr account?


Checks out


Got a chuckle IRL for that one


Ahahaha well i was warned that you can't delete

I think I like it better this way tbh


I have a phoenix wallet but not seeing how to connect it... Looks like a lot of people use Alby but that's wait listed (and custodial). What do you guys recommend?

If this is what Nostr is like, I'm staying.


Woah is this your music??


In less than 24 hours, I've consumed and enjoyed more thoughtful and "real" content than in st lrsdt four years on twitter, or fourteen on facebook...

I can see why this thing is winning.


Thank you for the recommendations!


I'm curious about this one. I love and appreciate the benefits of eating meat as a large percentage of one's diet, but I don't get the "veggies are bad" argument. Humans haven't evolved - physically - beyond a state where our diet consisted of meat, nuts, fruit, leaves/bark_ and vegetables. I DO completely see the toxicity of "meat substitutes" and all the nasty stuff they're preserved and cooked in. But if your food came from actual nature it's probably fine. Beyond beef? Definitely a shitcoin. But a carrot in your beef stew? Sounds pretty grounded and well balanced (also yum) to me


Okay got it. Thanks again! Once I'm more familiar with amethyst in general I'll check out coracle. Any other clients you would recommend?


Makes sense. Will spend more time looking at obtanium if there are way more choices


Sweet - does Coracle "ask" Amethyst for these details? Or do my relays store the info?


Gotcha. So it sounds like f-droid may be more for those with a security preference of manual-only updates, and obtanium is more about permissionless access to the content that everyone gets, without needing to go through Google. Thanks!


Why Obtanium instead of F-droid? Or are they for different use cases


Followed :)


Cool, followed you! Will definitely try following hashtags, thanks


Thank you!


Cool I'll definitely check it out. If I log into coracle with this same profile will it remember/recognize all my account settings and stuff?


Followed, thanks for the welcome :)


Thanks! Looks like i followed you already lol


New Nostr who dis?

For real though, Amethyst looks awesome, but it's a bit overwhelming... I followed a bunch of people and some of their followers so far.

How do I find conversations or microcommunities built around specific interests, niches, etc.? Can I use relays, or hashtags, for this?

I like music (nearly all kinds), hiking, skiing, reading, bitcoin, martial arts, good movies and tv, yoga and meditation, craft beer and fine wine, economics, traveling, and art (especially traditional Japanese and Mongolian painting/calligraphy). And probably some other stuff, but this should do the trick for now.

Happy to be here!
