 No #zap, no fun 🤙⚡ 
 The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed.

PONTE VECCHIO AT SUNSET

The painting tries to capture the magic of a sunset over Florence, with the Ponte Vecchio gently reflecting off the waters of the Arno, while the sky is tinged with warm hues, creating an atmosphere of timeless tranquility and beauty.

 Can you please recommend your favorite app? I’m new and learning. 

I tried Damus and Primal so...

 Beautiful photo! If it's yours, can I use it to make a painting? 🙏 
 How can I delete a post on primal or damus?? Thanks

 In Italy it is illegal to break spaghetti to boil it in a pot and it is illegal to have pineapple on pizza. 🤭

 It's a joke 🤣 
 In Arkansas ... you can't honk your horn near a sandwich shop after 9 p.m.

In California ... it'...

 A #zap is a like to the nth degree. 
 Does usernames actually matter on Nostr? Or is it just the public key what matters?
Are usernames... 
 On Nostr you are your npub you are not your username.
There is also your nip-05 that identifies you in case someone else wants to impersonate you.
For example my nip-05 is :
isolabellart@nsec.app 
And no one else can have it like it because it's tied to my npub. 
 It’s what I’ve been saying. nostr:note13ec9zvjt6u3y8w85hngk85utkfumdfan49flmhj55h097um64k9s7t...

 I don't know English, sorry. I just translate what you write. 🫂🎨 
 Nostr is not a new social network.
#Nostr is the new Internet.

Also on Minibits the NWC service has been activated to send zaps without opening the wallet, just have it active in the background. 
 Wonderful! I can only dream of an art studio like this for now. Congratulations 👏 
 Sometimes you just have to sit still and do nothing, and everything works itself out. 
 Lately on Instagram my paintings are really liked by young ladies with provocative photos.

Maybe they must have changed the algorithm and included me in the circle of those biting on sexy likes. 
 Be good 😊

 I am not looking for a distracted audience to look at my paintings to boost my ego that will put a like and go.

I am looking for passionate art admirers who will also participate with some criticism to evolve my work.

Maybe I demand too much, but I can't believe that my paintings have no flaws; it's not possible for me to receive only compliments and no criticism.

I need constructive criticism to create better paintings.

Can you help me? 🫂🎨 
 I don't know.
Do you think there is something that could be improved in any of my paintings? 
 I thank you very much for your feedback, sooner or later there will be someone to help me improve. 🫂🎨 
 I thank you for your feedback.
Actually this is not a criticism of my art but just a display of what you like and your taste.
That's still okay, but it doesn't help me improve myself. Thank you anyway. 🙏 
 Yes I am looking for someone to tell me:
"this is not good and I'll explain why."
or 
"if you did it this way it would turn out better."
I realize it is difficult, but I see many artists who are better than me, but none of them give me criticism.

 Yes that's what I'm trying to do, at least in my head, I would like to try to dare more by trying to make landscapes on the edge of the abstract but I can't do it yet.
I should make many more attempts, instead I always try to make complete paintings.
I often prefer my paintings at the beginning, when I define the shapes, while when I put in the details they lose strength.
I don't know if I explain myself well. 
 Great advice! 
 Please don't disappear, I need people like you, thank you infinitely 🙏🫂🎨 
 I agree, this is very good advice.
Less is more.
As Leonardo da Vinci said, simplification is the ultimate sophistication, so it will be very difficult. 
 What images do you mean? 
 Do you mean the ones on my website?

 They are all original oil paintings made by me, they are not created digitally. 
 Welcome home! 🫂🎨
I was looking forward to an account like yours, I like movies and TV series but here there are only bots that send news, no one participates like you!
So keep going and as soon as you can put a lightning address to receive small rewards in Bitcoin.
If you need us we are here 🤙 
 Read this thread in its entirety and you will understand that the Nostr experience is not so simple for everyone.
Ok maybe I did not give good advice, maybe Primal is the only way to start.
However we need to improve the entry of new people who want to use lightning network to receive and send #zap.

 Try This ⤵️

blink.sv 
 It is a bitcoin wallet that provides you with an email-like address that allows you to receive small payments here on Nostr, see my profile.
I have one with Minibits, yours with Blink could be for example: nowclip@blink.sv
But you can only get it from that app and then entering the address here on your profile. 
 I see you use Damus, so for iOS you can try blink.sv if you are a European resident and have Telegram you can also use sats.mobi to get a lightning address  
 Phoenix is a good wallet, but it is not suitable for Nostr.
Keep it aside for when you have more experience.
Blink wallet is very simple, download it for iOS and see. 
 Mutiny was a great wallet for Nostr but its developers abandoned the project, so I don't recommend it.

If you don't live in the United States you can try this:
https://www.walletofsatoshi.com/

Or you have to try to trust Blink and give your phone number to use it. 
 Don't give up, it's complicated but it's worth it, I assure you.

While I was writing to you I discovered that they have updated this very versatile wallet, take a look at it:

https://lifpay.me/en/ 
 Yes of course Primal is also good, it has a built-in wallet where you have to enter your data, but it is not necessary to be true, except your location. 
 Great!
That's fine, now you will receive your sats (bitcoin cents) directly inside Primal, but you will also be able to use Damus because you now have your lightning address set up.
You should have received some sats from me ⚡💪 
 That's the magic of Nostr. When you change clients to access Nostr, you'll have your settings and followers everywhere, in any Nostr app. 
 The Nostr universe is just beginning, Damus and Primal are just a drop in the ocean of apps you can use with your account.

There are blogs, streaming services, websites and many more, check them out here:
https://nostrapps.com/ 
 No you are right.
It is definitely better to have the wallet separate from the app especially when the numbers start to get big.

But don't worry, Primal is fine to start with, when you find a lightning wallet you like, you can simply move your Bitcoins around. 
 There is no seed phrase on the Primal wallet. The only backup is the email you activated it with.

Here you have an overview to choose your wallet:

 The cure for everything is salt water.
Sweat, tears, or... the sea.

 Thank you 😊🙏 
 I don't understand how to link my existing Nostr account to lifpay.
 How do I change the one that is created during registration?
