 The likelihood of mempools clearing again is roughly the same likelihood as @ODELL disabling caps lock on notes 
 I tried to use liquid and I concluded... I rather use Monero 😅

 You can actually buy goods and services with Monero 
 It could be 2000 sat/vB for a TX and I’ll still never use Liquid 
 Monero is a million times better than Liquid lol it’s not even close.

You can use 1 wallet to mix KYC and No KYC, you just want to make sure that you’re mixing them in separate transactions.

Example:
Transaction 1 mixes your KYC UTXOs to your post mix wallet. 

Transaction 2 mixes some non KYC UTXOs to your post mix wallet. 

Once they’re in post-mix, you can spend them without worry, especially if they’ve been remixed a few times. 

Just keep in mind that once you combine certain UTXOs in a transaction, you leave that footprint behind on chain. 

As another example: if you have a no KYC source A that you don’t want to know of other UTXOs you have, it’s best to not initiate a mix by combining UTXOs from a different source with UTXOs from source A. 

This is because the initial mix transaction combines them. Even if they’re not traceable after the fact, you’ve revealed that you own some UTXOs that the one source may not have known about. 
 "A man of discernment, meditating on the healing Divine Providence, bears with thanksgiving the misfortunes that come to him. He sees their causes in his own sins, and not in anyone else. But a mindless man, when he sins and receives the punishment for it, considers the cause of his misfortune to be God, or people, not understanding God's care for him."

 If anyone saw me re-post a note venerating Mary just know that I was testing something, I'm still... 
 There is nothing wrong with venerating the Theotokos. The Church has been doing this since the 5th century (and likely earlier) 
 Since you are curious, I highly encourage you to talk to a priest and present any and all questions/objections you have and see what they have to say. I had very similar objections when encountering Orthodoxy after being a Protestant for 20+ years. Ultimately, every single objection I had, there very good answers given.

It’s worth noting that you may perceive the services (if that’s what you mean by prayer time?) to invoke the name of Mary more than Jesus. That is simply not true. For example, you can search the text of St. John Chrysostom’s Divine Liturgy (which is the main service every Sunday) for “Son”, “Jesus”, and you will find many more references than “Mary”.

In Orthodox services, we also refer to Christ by many names, not just Jesus.  For example, every time we say “Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, both now and ever and unto the ages of ages” we are giving glory and worship to Him. 
 This is the Divine Liturgy, which is the primary service on Sunday, and includes many prayers. This does not cover everything you will hear on a Sunday, as typically there is also Matins and specific readings based on which day of the year it is.

 Has nothing to do with religious differences, I probably agree with him on more than I do with most people here in terms of religion.

Why so hostile? 
 It’s possible your wallet is censoring zaps to Zeuspay lightning addresses.

 The caps are locking hard. I repeat: the caps are locking hard. 
 The coin control here is really well done. Props to the @Foundation team on a killer UX. 

The Passport + Envoy combo is so good! My go-to recommendation to any family and friends seeking out a good HWW. nostr:note1xun4cex3qtt0d2s6pge6vhs9jghj7v4v5y3028jsrl7tvrwrmwasf4egfd

 The new iOS @primal is really nice. 

It’s too bad there isn’t an option to disable the custodial wallet and leverage external wallets to zap. 

For now will stick with Damus as the daily driver.

 I may play around with it for other apps before Zeus. 

It would suck to have the Zeus app expire and then have to import the seed into a new Zeus wallet, and wait up to 2 weeks for the channels to force close.

 Who owns/maintains nostr.cooking? Is there a repo that I can submit feature requests to?
