 For now yes. But we are changing that to me more automated. 

But you will still need to go there for your Inbox/Outbox settings.  
 See the "Recommended Relay section" at the end of your relay list and hit add on the authors you want to see. That adds those relays to your General list and the app will use them to download posts from. 
 When is the “right” time to explain nostr to a newbie? Why?

1) before app install
2) during ... 
 Never. We don't explain HTTP to users.  
 Yeah... This is BS. We have got to get that info into Nostr events.  
 I am surprised they didn't ask you for a fax number.

For following!  
 When Nostr DMs on Proton? :) 
 Why are so many people flocking to BlueSky and not Nostr? 
 Mostly herd behaviour and VC subsidies.  
 Iv got a question for some of our #nostr techs

 Lightning, bitaxe, cashu, bitvm in this order.

 Well, at least somebody will start on iOS...  
 #asknostr

is there an open source library for implementing nostr login on a mobile app?  
 Not yet, but we should make one  
 We should do an award for the most bug free client. 
 Lol 
 What's oddbean? 😱 
 Nice! Hey, if it works it works. The smaller the client the easier it gets to cover everything. 
 Interesting. What do you need on DMs?  
 Very interesting. I didn't know we had an issue on groups. But you should be able to create a group on amethyst hitting the + and clicking on private, on the messages tab. 

Reactions also show if they have been reacted to. Click to see more on each message. 
 Hum.. I will test it out.  But yes, we don't have the option to delete the group yet. I am not sure how 0xchat does, maybe they just delete the giftwraps. But I will take a look. 
 Call me old fashioned, but I think the U.S. should stop funding endless wars around the world tha... 
 I don't think "old fashioned" aligns with the fact that the US has always been at war with some country in the past. :) 
 Nestr will be now Nido  
 Better name!  
 It is to post whatever you want as image, like memes and so on. It doesn't need to be for your own gallery.  
 Yeah, I think nostr:nprofile1qqs04xzt6ldm9qhs0ctw0t58kf4z57umjzmjg6jywu0seadwtqqc75sprfmhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5hsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wshszynhwden5te0wp6hyurvv4cxzeewv4esdp32r9 is trying to integrate the old stuff from kind 1 into the new client and that doesn't work because the images are an accessory to the text and not the main thing on kind 1s. 
 How do you even do that? Which filter returns only kind 1s with images? 

I did it a while back for our image feed, but all I saw was meaningless images without any context. That essentially was why we ended up using nip94 instead. 

But I will switch amethyst images to kind 20 to help kick this off.  
 We really need calendar invitations on Nostr.  
 It could be 
 Yeah, seeing where your followers will be could be fun. Nests can also use them.  
 If it was possible then it is a much bigger loss for individual freedom.  
 If people were free to choose health but instead  kept poisoning themselves so much that they had to elect a health czar to fix things for them like an authoritarian, it means that individual freedom doesn't work. It always come back to authoritarianism.

 We just haven't added the new picture type yet, but it s very similar.

 Why are downloads through zap store so much slower than regular downloads over the browser?

 Funny think is that most people I know supporting merit-based systems, and even voting for Trump, are rent seekers.

 Pele is better.  
 Are they different? Galleries are selected. These ones are all the crap people post.

 Kind 20 is for all the shitposts, all memes and things you want to share but might not want in your Gallery. To me they are very different. 
 Tempted to do a Sunday release of my new client Olas 🌊, it’s already usable, at least on iOS... 
 Go for it 
 Clients on nostr should be very easy to make. If you are spending too much time (weeks), you are probably doing it wrong.  
 All clients 
 Yep.. all the optional stuff is a massive time sink 
 New client alert. Going full Instagram this time! 🚀

 Yeah, even though the translator is supposed to ignore hashtags, it loves to add a space between the hash and the word, turning the post into a markdown... Quite annoying.

 Does anyone else on #amethyst often get the 'Failed to upload' images? I know you have to clear c... 
 Is it repeatable? I have seen some timeouts, but our timeout setting is about 30seconds, which is massive. It could be that servers are busy at that moment. Or something else. 

I also noticed that some servers block free users after too many requests. In those cases, it comes back in the next day or so.  
 If going through Tor, it might be that Tor is too busy at that moment.

 anyone using nip22 to comment on websites? any client for this? 
 I think this extension was using it. But I don't know the final status 

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/sitechattr/oailcfmjgnkmpieilanaidbpgbjklafc?pli=1 
 It's similar, but I think they are using different kinds. Satcom uses kind 1, which appears in your timeline. This new use uses nip22, which doesn't appear in your timeline  
 No disrespect to our lovely nostr advocates and marketers - how might nostr hire the BlueScam chi... 
 It's not about the marketing, it's about who is going there. If the left is going there, the rest of the left follows.  
 I consider the obesity epidemic a failure of free markets to offer healthy food without government oversight and a failure of individual freedom to choose better foods for themselves. 

Yes, I know it's not completely free market and choosing healthy is not possible sometimes, but the point stands. Even with all gov interventions we have had, the market should have solved this.

Now RFK Jr is literally pitching more regulation to make America healthy again. 
 True, but all of these people are still choosing to do this. They are choosing to scam each other. That to me is a massive failure. Government is not that efficient on making people do what gov wants. There is a lot of blame on individuals in this system. 
 Hehe 
 And they are about to get much more intervention.  
 It's not a completely free market, but there is still more than enough freedoms available for the market to have fixed this by itself. 
 If it was possible then it is a much bigger loss for individual freedom.

 Não importa se é uma rede social ou não. Nostr é uma rede social. Facebook também é uma rede social muito maior. O que importa é se é descentralizado ou mais um honeypot para dados.  
 Vc é uma AI? Ou não entendeu o que escreveu? 

1. Vc também não pode baixar o protocolo AT numa app store. Seu primeiro ponto não faz nenhum sentido. 

2. Bluesky não é descentralizado. Eles ainda controlam grande parte do protocolo e TODOS os mechanismos de moderação são feitos e executados por eles diretamente. Não há descentralização na rede. 

3. Não sei que apps vc usa para o Nostr, mas as apps que eu conheço no Nostr são superiores a app do BlueSky. Nem sequer mensagem criptografada eles tem. As DMs passam tudo pelo servidor deles. 

Eu conheço o protocolo AT pq quase implementei um cliente deles antes de vir para o Nostr. Posso te garantir que descentralizado não é.   
 Ueh, pq que sou eu que tenho que deixá-los em paz? Eles não tem paz na plataforma deles? 

Vc me acusa de má fé, mas vc que está usando de má fé nessa resposta. Ou talvez vc nunca usou o protocolo AT que vc tanto defende...

Mas em fim. Não vejo motivo de convencer partidário a mudar de partifo. Fico por aqui. Boa sorte no BlueSky.  
 Já vi que o esquema é brainwash forte.
