Important journey.

Primal on the web, I use with my wallet via Alby Chrome extension and it's all good. It's the web app I keep using the most.
Primal iOS also has my wallet "email" address in Settings, but then wants me to fill out what seems to be a KYC form right there prominently in the middle of the app for ... the same wallet? I don't get it. What is happening? Where are the docs? Can I figure this out before the halvening?

In your opinion, as of today, which web client (desktop browser) offers the best Nostr UI/UX?

I've listened to plenty of Radiohead, but not these particular songs very much at all. Thanks for the faves!

Yes, this is one of my central hopes for BTC. Also, l’m hoping number goes up.
It’s like two physicians. You know, paradoxical.

Sorry, don’t know who this is. Is she in a position of some power?
I’d like her to learn about hard money, though.

She gives the impression of always preaching her made-up mind. Maybe that's the best way to be senating these days, maybe not, but it does make me wonder what it takes to introduce thoughts to her before she's made up her mind.

Seems that way, though maybe only for short or medium holding periods.

For somebody who will be using a custodian, at this point buying an ETF that uses Coinbase seems better than buying BTC on Coinbase.

Hey, a social media that benefits the users sounds great, I said to myself. I hopped on and learned a lot about the smart things going into this platform. And as the year winds down I’m seeing posts about importance of Nostr. So, sure, I concur. But I’m not seeing posts about how to increase adoption. Maybe people want it to stay niche. But if not, here are some ideas. You may not like these or you may not agree, and that’s fine, but I do not see much discussion about why adoption has not gone up like you want it to, so I hope this helps.
Better name than the first 5 letters of nostril
Better design
Better UI
Better UX
Better sign up
Better sign in
Less time making new users figure stuff out
And don't make users select between a list of seemingly random relays with weird names

Iris Energy shares are up today. If I want to see chatter about that here, what works?
#IREN
$IREN
Or just searching for “IREN” or “Iris Energy”?
In any case, seems worry over shares being diluted has been replaced with confidence they will not.
(Share dilution. It’s like inflation but often worse and highly capricious and it sure seems like theft in the way Jeff Booth uses that word.)

Is there a tool that helps one improve their relay settings in Nostr?
It’s up to date on relays, it looks at your relays, it asks you a few preferences and it suggests changes and/or makes changes.
Something easy peasy. I’d use it. And new people will want to not have to know about relays and use a super simple tool instead.

If you’re a SAG-AFTRA member, please vote yes on the contract! Deadline is Tuesday. Why not do it now.
Also, a hearty welcome to #actstr I believe it’s called.

My first real transaction was in Jan 2015. I bought a piece of software.

Congrats to Emma Stone for great acting, good character work, on her 5th SNL last night. Several of the sketches seemed extra bizarre, meaning they tickle me more and/or left me nonplussed. Perhaps Mama was my favorite of the wackadoodles.

2023-12-02 22:46:54

I am just realizing that I’m getting spams with a 1 sat payment for several days now. Hm. What to think? Well, it’s better than the rate I get for spams over at Gmail and Yahoo!
Actually, spam and scam excludes, I think micropayments to contact people is a good thing. We’ll see where this takes us!

Not as fun, I agree. Themed zapathons? Text-only zapathons? Fresh-material-only zapathons?

Thank you negotiating committee! I’ve been in those rooms before. I know the rooms where it happens have long hours and heightened emotions. It can be a lot, frankly. So
thank you,
Thank You,

Yup, your odds are probably better. But I know people where self-custody ain't a great choice for them.

2023-11-04 17:33:38

Re self-custody: I feel less likely to lose coins stored on River or Swan or such, than on Ledger or Trezor or such. For a lot of people I know, this feeling is the truthier truth.

Difficult days. I don't feel like posting for #zapathon. (Well, I just did, but normally I'd post a song or a rhyme or a pun or such. And I'd do it on time, instead of 55 minutes late.)

Is it just my own perception, or do you sense that the posts on Nostr are getting more diverse, covering a slightly bigger slice of life?

If a goal is widespread adoption, I suspect this would work against that.
I think what people want is easy messaging but without spam/scam. Not difficult messaging. “Was it on this phone? That phone? Was it on the desktop computer? Which browser? No, must be the tablet. Nope not there either. What the heck happened to that message I want to re-read?!”
