Pretty sure my nostr private key got compromised at some point in the past. Nuking this account just to be sure.

Kukks was working on that a while ago, but I don’t think it ever went live.

You can add your key in the Alby settings: https://i.ibb.co/VWZwD4n/Screenshot-2022-12-20-at-15-27-20.png

Users, if you don’t want to send your private keys to random webpages, use Alby (which implements nos2x) https://getalby.com/

I've heard that nostr is a Lightning faucet, so here are 210 x 21 sats: https://legend.lnbits.com/withdraw/kstsRfjPfSXyVQQA7UkxFP

Right-click save it and it's yours!
It's a reverse NFT: freely copyable and if you're quick you can get some sats to boot!

Are you using the same key and the right format? noscl can only deal with hex keys (not nsec keys) as of now.

Just used to it scrape all the npubs from https://twitter.com/search?q=%22verifying%20my%20account%20on%20nostr%22&f=live&pf=1 and followed my twitter circle.
So if you know what you're doing it's great! 😅

I wrote this *before* @jack stumbled upon nostr and @elonmusk decided to run a guerilla ad campaign for it.
Nostr has a chance of fixing a lot of things too, because it is an open protocol, not a platform.

I wrote this, at least in part, as a response to @jordanbpeterson's comments on the problems of "anonymous troll-demons" and his suggestion to fix this issue with KYC and True Names.
I believe this is terribly naive and misguided (should be obvious if you know authoritarianism).

I tried my best to expand on the above in "A Vision for a Value-Enabled Web" — it's far from perfect, but I believe #Bitcoin and #Lightning⚡ allow us to envision a web that could be better.

Paywalls don't fix this; they break the internet. Information wants to be free, and for good reason. Trying to make files uncopyable is like trying to make water not wet. We have to disconnect price from value, and we have to re-think both.
#Bitcoin and #value4value fixes this.

The model of platforms and advertisements leads to self-censorship, audience capture, and "brand safety." If you aren't being deplatformed or demonetized outright, your bank account might be frozen, or your payment platform removes funds from your account.
#Bitcoin fixes this.

Using attention as a proxy for value produces a short head: the loudest, most primitive, and most clickbaity content wins. The head can be monetized. The long tail of niche and nuance loses.

Yes, anonymous "troll-demons" can be a problem. Moderation is important, depending on context. If account creation & verification is free, bots and trolls take over. We have to make it costly, but IOUs do not allow for anonymous security deposits.
#Bitcoin fixes this.

Pseudonymity and anonymity make the internet great. But there's a problem: using conventional credit rails without identity is impossible. This is terrible for journalists, dissidents, political activists, and the underbanked.
#Bitcoin fixes this.

Cash is king for a reason. "The whole point of cash is to NOT know your customer," to paraphrase an Italian comedian. Enough with credits and IOUs. Let's use cash money again:
#Bitcoin on #Lightning⚡ fixes this.

The internet had to use attention as a surrogate currency because conventional currency doesn't work well online. You have to use IOUs when using conventional currency, which implies credit and counterparty risk, and thus KYC.
#Bitcoin fixes this.

Platforms harvest eyeballs and brain cycles to sell them to the highest bidder. The core of the advertisement model is combining addiction with surveillance, which destroys nuance and privacy alike.
The incentives are broken. #Bitcoin fixes this.

2022-12-19 10:48:33

It's hard to guard your time and attention when it is used as a defacto currency online. Using attention as a surrogate currency has led to all kinds of problems.
The root problem lies in the nature of coin, credit, circulation, and information. 🧵👇

Here's the thing about nostr: it won't die easily. Consequently, it will only get better.
That's the magic of free, libre, open-source software. That's the magic of open protocols. And that's why I'm bullish. 😤

I'd just say use the generic "post" --- most of these cute little words are cringe anyway.
You post stuff on nostr. Other people post stuff on nostr. Tomorrow I will post stuff on nostr. Maybe something will emerge, but post is fine as far as I'm concerned.
