It makes total sense tho, he’s just using his means to help his own business

Stage 1 - Going into custodial solution where TIDAL generates and stores a key pair to interact with Nostr
Stage 2 - Once Nostr becomes more mainstream and people understand what keys are really about you turn it around and allow logging in into TIDAL with a key based mechanism (and start deprecating custodial solution from TIDAL)

We should have combinations for smaller and bigger nodes. Certain nostr communities won’t need huge nodes (think Facebook groups or old-school forums)

Yup, you don’t know if the person you start following is ‘legit’ in the first place though. Not a big problem now since community is small but might be a pain point when scammers join

2023-01-04 16:04:37

- reply

possibly! Just a quick thought tho. I prefer the idea of social proof rather then centralised verifying services

2023-01-04 15:55:34

- reply

idea: there could be a social mechanism where users can confirm that they know the person and consider them to be ‘real’.
For example jb55 and jack sent a confirmation event that given pubkey is ‘authentic/verified’. Could be picked up by client to show a proper badge (if you follow jack or jb55)

+1, made even a little twitter thread about it https://twitter.com/bkobos/status/1608493421718552577 - imo in order for Twitter to thrive long term in needs to acknowledge that it is a product with its own preferences and biases and embrace the idea of running on top of protocol

what mechanics do you envision? Just streaming while listening? Xsats per minute or sth?

Do we need yet another wallet tho? Can’t the app delegate to other wallets on the device? :P

2023-01-03 16:34:23

Shady FIAT tactics! :P with Damus landing on the App Store we’ll probably see influx of traffic anyways

2023-01-03 15:56:32

- reply

could be external services/providers that integrate well with nostr ecosystem too (host for sats)

2023-01-03 15:43:18

- reply

Imo makes sense to ask for a few cents (per usage with some quota) instead of taking the costs yourself

2023-01-03 15:41:12

#[4] happy to help if you’d be open to getting LSAT support into Damus. I’m currently working on an LSAT proxy which would basically ask the user to provide some sats in order to talk with the GPT bot

2023-01-03 15:38:39

I hope the current relays can take it when the flood gates open

2023-01-03 15:33:53

you can always resubmit as totally different app “NotDamus” in a different category, would be kinda epic lol

2023-01-03 15:24:49

I guess we’d need an oldest event from the oldest relay. Not sure if there’s any ‘proof of timestamp’ tho ;-)

what’s the official date for nostr genesis :P ? @fiatjaf

2023-01-02 15:58:49

- reply

Yup, ‘filter list’ should probably hide all the threads that a given user started in your replies (since you decided to not pay attention) so he/she is not annoying you ;-)

2023-01-02 15:20:07

- reply

totally, which is great since the funds go directly to the end node while you don’t have to expose it directly

2023-01-02 15:18:15

- reply

thank you for a summary of the tech! :) this definitely sounds powerful and I always used an intermediary node for processing but this could remove the need for the middle man in many cases

2023-01-02 15:11:32

- reply

Wow, this sounds quite awesome. I was not aware that it’s possible to do anything custom using the lightning network. Could this be adopted for LND too? I’m guessing c-lightning exposes some special apis via ln?

this sounds like a quite a bit of resources to do simple relaying 🤔 either it’s doing lots of processing or something is quite nonoptimal

wondering if you’ll see a pattern where majority of notes will come from a single relay (since it’ll be the fastest one for the given user)

2022-12-29 16:02:23

If it’s not a company it gives equality and true freedom to all the participants. Such setup allows various competing solutions to emerge on top of it while leveraging network effects of the protocol itself - should bring tons of innovation and ability to build communities in a completely new way

2022-12-24 00:09:36

- reply

mind giving us couple ideas of things you’d like to see to be built when that happens?

2022-12-24 00:07:58

- reply

I think there’s a natural need for protocol to emerge, Twitter is great but due to it being a company it will always be biased in some way (and not truly open)

2022-12-24 00:06:36

- reply

yup, I guess that’s also one of the learnings from bitcoin - if it’s not an independent protocol itself then there’s always temptation and incentive to mess with a thing you own

2022-12-23 23:58:17

#[0] what’s you take on comparing twitter to a town square? While sounds aspirational and lofty it seems that it’s technically impossible as it’s owned by a company (that has both ‘opinions’ and legal obligations) and is a product. Twitter would have to become a protocol instead which does not seem possible at this point - might be ready to join Nostr in the future tho ;-)

Ideally the number of users and how often the endpoints are being called - hopefully to celebrate a growing success!

2022-12-23 22:42:57

- reply

totally, it might sound easy for devs or systems ppl but it’s extremely useful for regular folks. Besides. even devs do not always have a spare domains (or apetite to set up yet-another-thing) ;-)

2022-12-23 21:41:37

- reply

Imo long term storage should not be free on nostr and possibly should require some sats payments from time to time so storage-relays do have incentive to store the data the user is interested in keeping. Maybe relays could bid their storage prices and clients (like Damus cc #[3] ) would allow you to accept certain bids ;-)

2022-12-23 21:30:52

- reply

fingers crossed! please share some stats after a while :)

2022-12-22 16:28:04

btw #[0] what’s the best place to discuss early ideas? Just nostr feed? :P for DMs maybe a simple protocol could be implemented. When starting a chat a new key-pair is generated and shared (public keys are shared between two clients via encrypted message). Then clients can just watch for those new pub keys among other events going through nostr. This way only initial handshake is visible in the network but no one will know if convo happened or when

2022-12-22 00:15:38

- reply

for example damus could have an option to ‘boost’ the posts on the ‘global’ timeline with sats :-)

2022-12-22 00:08:08

- reply

another idea to the mix: if some clients/apps monetize usage they could also tip the relays. Or maybe at some point the beefy relays should require payment for sending stuff through them

2022-12-21 20:41:27

- reply

idea for #1 - it would be quite easy to create highly performant relay that would not store events history. Such relay could do everything in memory and be used to handle real-time traffic. Other (slower) relays could be used to retrieve historical messages ;-)

2022-12-19 17:26:18

- reply

my 2¢ good long-term question - once there are really big users this might be challange (beefier and beefier nodes needed). But ultimately nostr is a protocol, not a product. Good products (on top of nostr) will have incentive to maintain nodes to provide great UX

2022-12-19 17:21:41

- reply

This might become a thing when users with huge followings start playing with nostr :) I guess @ 82341f882b6eabcd2ba7f1ef90aad961cf074af15b9ef44a09f9d2a8fbfbe6a2 gave us a little taste of it ;-)

2022-12-19 17:20:51

- reply

BTW I mentioned this somewhere already but seems that it got lost. Would be great to start thinking about 'perf/health metrics' per relay so they just don't simply die randomly and know a bit more about their own state rather than slowing to crawl.

2022-12-19 17:17:37

#[0] since there are 2 separate nostr foundations now - could you elaborate on difference in approaches that will be taken? damus vs fiatjaf? This way people that want to get involved could make an informed decision

2022-12-16 22:54:40

- reply

just thinking what will happens if there are accounts with huge followings - won't they cause perf issues with relays? or the assumption is that some relays will start rejecting new connections once they fill up new people will join the conversations via relays that have room?

2022-12-16 22:52:29

are there any benchmarks around nostr relays? I'm wondering what are rough theoretical limits when it comes to # of users per relay? are there plans to publish perf stats per relay? cc #[0]

what's interesting is that I see events coming in the chrome console / network (websockets) tab and there's no JS error - so looks like it's a less obvious bug. Tried incognito and seeing the same. I thought that maybe relays I tried are slow but https://damus.io/web/ works no problem

I was playing with it quite a bit today (seems most feature-packed) but I'm usually getting 'loading image' every time I want to do something :(
