If signing was done with your public key then anyone could sign your notes for you.

What do you mean? npubs are bech32 encoded representations of public keys and you sign serialized Nostr events with your secret key. Others can verify that a note is signed by you because the signature matches your public key.

Should probably say Twitch-like platform or a food recipe app instead of reddit to get the point across better.

2024-09-01 20:27:26

Here's my attempt to answer these questions:
Nostr is multiple apps and platforms that interoperate together. There are Twitter-like apps, Reddit-like apps and there will be any kind of app you can imagine.
The developer team of each individual Nostr app controls that specific app. You can take control of the content you create but if you choose not to, the data is stored on someone else's devices. Often volunteers who want Nostr to grow and succeed in creating a better internet that is not controlled by a few big corporations. You can be blocked by individual users but you cannot get deplatformed from Nostr. Ever.
Each Nostr app has a way to create a Nostr identity. Once you have created one, you can copy your secret key that was created for you to a login on a different Nostr app. You can modify your profile name of your Nostr identity on any profile page on any Nostr app. Creating a Nostr identity doesn't require you to provide any personal information and you won't be required to do so ever in the future.

The first introductory info page on Nostr that tries to explain Nostr to someone who has not heard a single thing about it should not mention JSON, TCP/IP, HTTP, `Event` or even the word protocol.
The three most basic questions that need answering are:
Is Nostr an app?
Who controls this?
How do I create an account?

A fun fact from the world of software licenses:
If a license includes a mandate to "use the software for good, not evil", the licence is not free since there's a restriction on usage and thus conflicts with the four essential freedoms which make software free.

Being able to actually build your own client is the literal game changer. No need to game the users with addictive dark design patterns. But how to incentivize "normal" human interaction is the big question. People are so used to being manipulated they actually expect the dark patterns and it might feel weird when they're not there.

And if NDK does in fact check returned events against the filter on the client-side then we'd need to work around that to get the wildcards working.

2024-07-31 15:37:30

@nprofile…8qkt @nprofile…r4lw does NDK check events returned from a relay against the subscription filter? Or does it "trust" that the relay did in fact return events matching that filter?
Asking because we're implementing filters with wildcards on the hornet-storage relay and would like to fetch events with a filter like ["#d"]: ["/apps/git/repos/*/issues/*/title"] where the wildcard * can be any string.

Just let it resync. Depending on how long the node was down it can take hours. If your bitcoin node and/or electrum server is not synced it makes sense that the lightning node isn't either. Electrum server always takes more time to get back up again than the bitcoin node. I'm assuming you're running electrum server and LND. Nothing to do but wait patiently.

I remember a core dev saying on a podcast that privacy on the Bitcoin protocol level has not been the focus mainly because of lack of interest. There has always been some more important thing. Hopefully the recent events are the catalyst to bring zero knowledge transactions to Bitcoin core.
