Awesome thank you so much.
I have tried using my alby wallet in damus, but it seems to be not connecting properly. Instead, I reenabled my primal wallet and I am now wondering if I am able to receive zaps from damus into my primal wallet. I tried connecting my strike wallet (which I prefer to use) to my primal, but I have had others tell me they are unable to send zaps in other clients, such as nostrudel. I’m confused why this may be the case.

Very helpful, thank you so much. As of right now, I am mostly using primal (I have iOS) and nostrudel, but also currently logged into iris so what you’re saying makes sense; to reduce the amount of clients that I am using at once. What is history.something relay? I will try and find that list

Let’s go fam! Cutting out that stuff is great. It’s best to reduce down to simplicity and allow your body to utilize what it’s meant to. Also, pay attention to the light you consume and during what parts of the day; ie blue light from devices. Really messes with your mitochondrial light and dark cycles

My favorite from yesterday’s walk.
Photography, for me, is a form of release—letting my attention and curiosity wander freely, allowing moments to unfold naturally.

Can someone please help me with my relays?
I’m not sure what is going on here. Everything was working fine when I posted from noStrudel; it would show also on primal and etc but now they aren’t. I’m also not receiving notifications from other events such as comments or mentions. Iris is showing notifications that noStrudel is not.
I would really appreciate someone helping me with this as I do not understand how to fix this myself!

As I was flipping through my Stephen Shore book this morning, I found a photo and a quote that resonated a bit with me…
“Art is truth” - JFK
How true it is. Reminds me of Plato when he contemplates what the good, the true and the beautiful are.
The beautiful is always easiest to discern.

2024-09-05 13:29:26

I've been hearing and seeing a lot of people talk about 'not selling your bitcoin, ever' and although I do agree with that, I see it a bit differently.
Bitcoin follows a Power Law (can be found through out nature, and even cities; I recommend reading Geoffrey West's book "Scale"), and if you understand that, you can then multiple your coins by selling a portion (or all) at the tops and buying back in at the lower deviations. https://m.primal.net/KfWM.png
Many of this comes from years of trading exprience, but most recently from joining the Scaleinvariant Discord group with Giovanni Santostasi. It's a wealth of knowledge that can be helpful for those that want it.
That being said, it is a good time to stack some more sats! Looking to retest the lower 50k range again before we take off for the bull run.

I recently went on a hike with some friends at Chimney Rock in New Jersey and snapped a few shots with the #Leica M262. I love this camera—simple, straightforward, and digital, which is a plus with film prices being so high right now.
A simple setup just makes sense to me. Like energy following the path of least resistance, simplicity creates efficiency. As systems improve, they naturally conserve energy, and I find that reflected in the way I approach photography.

I have a question for the #asknostr community:
I am trying to understand how to switch between two npubs that I have when logging into Primal on mobile. I understand that it is not ideal to paste in your nsec every time.
How do I manage between switching between my separate accounts for logging in on mobile? Is it wise to use Primal and Damus simultaneously while logged into two different npubs?

Good morning everyone!
I'm looking for some help with an issue I'm having with the lightning/zap function on my clients. I've connected my Strike address here on Primal, and it seems to be working fine. However, I've had reports from other users that they're unable to zap from Damus and noStrudel (I'm posting this using noStrudel). The error they’re receiving is "invalid lightning address."
I’m a bit puzzled since the Strike address works perfectly on Primal. Any insights on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

I think there’s value to be found in the pursuit of learning about Nostr/responsibility/freedom by engaging in unknown territory. Speaking personally of course because all of this protocol is new to me. It’s been exciting to be a part of this and I want to learn more.
Also if anyone could help me trouble shoot why my lightning wallet is not working via damus or nostrudel that would be huge. I have my strike wallet linked to primal and working. Thank you!

2024-09-02 12:30:46

Thank you! I am actually having issues with my zaps. For whatever reason, my strike address here on primal works, but doesn’t for both nostrudel and damus. Would you mind helping me trouble shoot that?

Brilliant, will do that now

2024-09-02 12:22:31

Thats really strange. I have the strike account setup on Primal. Why do you think it's not being able to go through on those clients? Trying to figure that out!

Thank you!
Seeing it on noStrudel has a bit better of a grid layout than Primal. Btw, are you able to see if my zap feature is available to you on noStrudel? I'm having issues with linking the lightning payment there for some reason. Seems to work fine on Primal

So I dug a bit deeper and found that nostrudel is only able to link alby and a few other lightning networks. Do you have an alby invite you could share? Also, curious what you think of using nostrplebs for your domain. It’s all new to me so I appreciate the insight.
Also, I’m in Bernardsville! Literally a stone throw away hahaha

2024-09-01 19:13:38

- reply

Thats awesome. What client have you been using the most?
Also, anyone that has an Alby invite that they would be willing to share, please dm me! I have been having issues with receiving zaps via NoStrudel and I realize that I need the alby extension to connect. Of course, I may be incorrect, but either way, if anyone has an invite they could share please let me know

2024-09-01 15:53:59

Thanks my guy! It’s a tricky thing I will say from doing it for years. Looking through submissions on @npub1v02…mwuj has really give me some perspective on how difficult it is, as you say

2024-09-01 15:50:56

Now I have heard from a couple of people that my lightning wallet for zaps are not working from nostrudel. Can you confirm? Could you please recommend a course of action to correct the error? I have been receiving zaps into the strike account otherwise

2024-09-01 15:49:16

2024-09-01 15:26:30

Trying my best! Still wrapping my head around so many new concepts. I’ve been having some issues with people sending zaps from nostrudel on my most recent post. Could you see where it is that I am going wrong? I have my strike lightning account linked via primal

2024-09-01 15:24:44

- reply

When I link a new lightning address, do I need to do this for every client? I have it for primal. Zaps have been coming through. Someone else was saying that the option is greyed out to zap on strudel

2024-09-01 15:18:12

In regards to the zap, that is strange. I have not used nostrudel before I am using primal and have my strike account linked. Can you try it there? What should I do to fix that?

Could you elaborate a bit more in regard to using existing clients?
As for your question, I’m still figuring it out. This space is unique because it opens the door for new ideas to take shape. I’ve been thinking about how we could create a system where photographers can submit their work and potentially earn sats based on community votes or rankings. I know it’s not fully fleshed out yet, but I’m working on developing better ideas that offer more value to the photography community.
I’m definitely open to suggestions, especially if you have any insights from following what @noicemag does or checking out the IG account. It’s just me behind the scenes, so the brainstorming power is somewhat limited. Any ideas or feedback you can offer would be greatly appreciated

Good morning, Nostr fam!
I wanted to share some recent photographs from a photo walk I took in NYC with a friend last weekend. I’m shooting with a Leica M262.
I’m curious to see how photography translates on this platform and would love to get some feedback—anything to help me improve what works and refine what doesn’t. I am posting this from Primal btw. I wish there was a way to bulk select and upload.
I’m also hoping to connect with other photographers in the New Jersey/NYC area, so if you’re nearby, let’s link!!
