Ok here's my briefest possible rundown, I'll try to exclude people you already follow. afaict you haven't been on nostr for a hot minute. I can barely keep up myself. Also, I'm running out the door right now so there's probably a bunch of typos and mistakes, but here you go.

every few days or weeks there's some random wildfire meme event, like one day I logged in and everyone was named Dan

I like the consistent trend of pointing to nostr "problems" are actually features indicating how decentralized it is. like follow like or counts can fluctuate, or you can't gaurantee a post has been deleted. Did you know Mastadon stores like counts in a sql record? anyway, seen a lot of posts like that

Two web-based nostr clients you gotta try if you haven't already are nostrudel (tons of features/customization, I particularly like how it handles relays) and

is working on coracle which has the best in class WoT functionality in nostr afaik

is streaming music on zap.stream 24/7

posts here occasionally. Always a treat to hear from him.

Some of the grapheneOS folks are on here, like

is prolific and working on cool stuff in golang like REPLICATR

is publishing about privacy and working on freedom.tech

is always keeping the vibe light

You already follow but I just wanted to say he's definitely the best cat these days.

is working on a file sharing protocol called blossom (he was on Citadel Dispatch talking about it recently if you want to catch up on that)

all the usual suspects like odell, the jacks, etc. are all still holding it down influentially. divisive and incisive. all of them have been called out and challenged in one way or another, and they're all still going strong. the stakes are high, so good on'em.

There are some folks on here that have sharp technical views on things, I always love seeing them comment on topics:





You cannot overestimate the need for good vibes so follow

Offset that with the proper antagonism from who will probably save us all in the end.

(yes)

oh also built nsec.app which is pretty cool too

is still tearin' it up. he's like the benevolent king that conquered lightning, but he's giving it all back to us in the end with

NWC will be in everything one day

is scheming up ways to fix lightning (save the money, save the world)

also built satdress which I continue to use every day to zap people and continue to aggressively recommend

building wild ecash stuff

I think you already follow me, but you should know that if I was a language model they'd probably just delete me for having terrible inference quality

btw I searched for you in Amethyst and couldn't find you even though I follow you. nostr is SO DECENTRALIZED
