TIL that if you don't use your lightning wallet/channel for a month, it gets closed and your sats sit on-chain, and in order to keep a channel open, I'll have to shell out the BTC equivalent of $22 USD, as of the date of this post, that I literally don't have, every time it closes. There will be months where I won't use that channel at all because I won't be engaged in the network. The monetary side of this network is not for poor people. Ahh well, at least I still have my lightning address...for now.

Man, these relays are something else. I guess I need to give the network time to propagate my posts. Hopefully, there will be less duplicates as I figure things out.

Found a #rock #song that goes perfectly with vicious #girl films, and it just so happens that I enjoy playing along with it on #guitar too. I added some clips of my favorite films to this theme into the video. If you enjoy rock and metal and/or enjoy watching people playing guitar, then this video is for you. #music #metal #cover #notestr #musicstr 🎸 🎶

#NOSTR EXPLORER
Here's a post from the noStrudel web client. With the crossposting issue I noticed when I posted from Iris, I verified on the PC and mobile devices that they are all using the same relays and all the relays are activated and active, , that I'm using the same key to login to all client services, but my posts from web clients still aren't showing up on the mobile client apps and vice versa.
On my last post, I mentioned that I thought that notes and other kinds of posts were tied to my pub key, but I guess I should have realized at the time that its most likely going to be tied to a private key.
It's a shame really because I spend more time on a PC than I do mobile devices, so here we are back to spending more time posting separately between mobile and desktop clients. It's the nature of nascent tech, but maybe eventually someone will figure it out.

*TEST POST
Item:
- Checking out the #nostr client Iris today. So far, it seems less painful for less techy people like me.
- Look at my Post screen. XD https://image.nostr.build/fe3cd87ed5b1c4132a04ac22bd293814a41f38370f3d2d30e0bc58194b0473b9.jpg
(I'm using Brave)
- I think I have all the same relays set up here as I have on my mobile clients, so we'll see if everything shows up like I'm guessing it's supposed to. I'm under the impression that your post history is client agnostic, no? Tied o your pub key? I noticed on Coracle that posts I made there weren't propagating to my mobile clients and vice versa, despite same relays, or maybe I was supposed to set something else up that I hadn't.

-------------------------------------
TLDR; long rambling about all of this and random video upload
Dear Nostrites, Nostreans:
Exploration of this protocol/platform/network continues. Trying out Coracle on the PC today. I didn't have "me buying bitcoin" (for zappiness) on my 2025 bingo card, but here we are. Still waiting for the transaction on the exchange to settle(?) so I can actually use the BC to send sats to the lightning...network(?), so I can set up a channel in Alby to get involved in all that here.
It all falls in line with what I am both used to and expected. You either pay for a service or you are the product of the service, and I prefer the former situation if having to choose. While I haven't had the chance to test it out yet, I like the idea that I can send/tip someone some sats, and if they get enough, they can turn them into fiat to get real world stuff they need/want.
Seems as though crypto currency is still dealing with the same issue that I remember from the early-to-mid 2010s, where you can't just take it into a majority of IRL establishments (like with fiat) and buy your stuff directly with it. Seems like a lot of it is still going through buying gift cards to spend. I'm surprised that this is still the case all these years later, but I guess mass adoption is going to stay the final hurdle for crypto currency to overcome, or maybe it's not going for mass adoption anymore? I don't know, this subject matter is not something I consciously keep up with.

Learned about that today. At first, it sounded like the Nostr version of a blue check mark, but it seems to actually not be. Apparently, a person can get it setup for free in some places and has to pay in others. The opinions I've read on it so far seem to discount it as not very useful. ( Here's an example: https://njump.me/nevent1qqs92h746wgvk95ymf08xf4eph897g64262pen5js7zmwj3r8pz43qczyz8wg2gvnzeqk2vezw9nyt6xd63qcatq3atg4dfu7y2f90um96zfc8wfez9 )
I'm not into the minutiae of all of this, but I appreciate the overall goal. I'm going to send this post and see which clients I have installed on my devices actually pick it up. I have posts from days ago that I'm not seeing on coracle.
Anyway, here's a short video I edited because a reddit post had me laughing:
