I like this idea, unsure how it is the best to implement UX-wise

2024-11-19 11:10:43

- reply

It is a good idea but hosting expenses end up in fiat for following reasons: datacenters (I mean real ones who are corpo) and electricity bills are always in fiat. Given Bitcoin to fiat exchange rate is fluctuated, and unfortunately in the short-term might be actually decreasing, it is really hard to define prices in satoshis.

2024-11-19 11:04:15

Technically, we already do - we collect gateway fee for almost all fiat payments (Stripe for example)

Makes sense regarding stagnation, but I would say that it is preferable to use Bitcoin as a reserve currently rather than main currency used for accounting purposes.

As long as a business has expenses in Euro (like we do), there is an incentive to set prices in Euro.

Regarding proposals - I think the easiest solution is to use inbox so that follower notifies the one who they follow, then they add it to an encrypted list for caching purposes
When unfollowing, unfollower notifies the one who they unfollow and the entry is removed from encrypted list (used as a cache)
Any thoughts?

2024-11-18 20:19:49

So far it is the only issue in nostr I don't like
But it might be actually a tradeoff between precise users (well followers) count and privacy

2024-11-18 20:08:26

AFAIK it is nostr protocol limitation, not clients' unwillingness to notify

Honestly, I don't understand why anyone uses Facebook. The only reason I can see is its' popularity in some regions for specific audience age. Elder people seem to be unwilling to change services/platforms (even if more convenient are available) because of habit.

The only concerning thing is NIP-04 DMs to be honest, the rest is already public information - you can gather similar information from any other existing social media network. But even DMs are fixed using NIP-17. Check it out.
However, there is DVM at the nostr which allows you to have empty following list.

I think it is appropriate to account only for total volume.
Percentage of BTC volume (on- and off-chain): 65.78% (of BTC and fiat total volume). Other cryptocurrencies are not included in this statistics. The statistics is for entire business lifetime.

Are your interested in IPv6? If so, are you interested in IPv6-only server with NAT64+DNS64 to be able to reach IPv4-only servers and port forwarding to be reachable for IPv4-only clients.
This is not currently available at Skhron KVM VPS, but we will implement it soon* if there is interest in it.

I think it is more like pay per bandwidth rather than "cache N videos" for X days - popular 10 second video and infrequently accessed 1 hour documentary are entirely different cases

2024-11-11 15:26:08

There is major downside - once viewers seen the full video they won't share it. Thus I think that this approach is more suitable for livestreaming scenario.

If you mean public notes - it is indeed less of a concern, but it shares information on what you read with 3rd party - given recent algorithm relay promotion in regards of hiding what one reads/follows, this is a valid concern

2024-11-09 14:16:47

Telegram relies on a 3rd party (afaik it is google) to translate messages - this is privacy issue none of nostr developers willing to accept imo

2024-11-08 10:31:36

Well I would say that Wireguard was intended to be the easiest VPN protocol. But also I would like to note that for some usecases not having link layer forces orgs to move to OpenVPN that has much bloater codebase and is generally slower.

2024-11-05 16:00:20

- reply

I am not into nostr development but did anyone consider encrypted following lists? What is the problem with it? It should perfectly solve privacy concern, but I consider it is not applicable for public stuff really - anyone still can see to whom you are engaging (replying / zapping / boosting etc).

2024-11-05 15:51:30

- reply

I don't get the hype over DVM and follow list deprecation - wouldn't it be step backwards regarding nostr development? Basically it will make users vulnerable to some 3rd parties influencing what you read.

Your arguments are good, however if they did work no one would use banks. Unfortunately, all businesses I know have at least 1 banking account.

2024-11-04 17:48:45

- reply

This is exactly how it currently works.
But what I meant is that it is not easy to convince generic business to accept cryptocurrencies due to legal barries. This applies to Monero much more than to Bitcoin, and for some non-techy business it is easier to adopt Bitcoin by using custodial service, which is not available for Monero (at least in Europe).

2024-11-04 17:41:37

- reply

Unfortunately, most businesses are not into cryptocurrencies due to different reasons, and thus even ones who "got the plot" are forced into using fiat to pay to their contractors at least.

2024-11-04 17:36:10

- reply

As a business I would like to note that unless you have places where to spend Monero, it is bigger trouble due to CEX delistings.
Bitcoin can be easily accepted using custodial solutions, and depending on how they are implemented, I doubt that it will be easy for 3rd party to know how much you make of profit relying only on blockchain data.

Big data processing was a thing before LLM and AI stuff happened. Furthermore, I am sure that current publicly available models are not really optimized in terms of performance, hence I don't agree that it is a threat due to large scale analysis - it was a thing decade ago.

Did you know that all our VPS have native #IPv6 - routed /64 prefix included - by default? Also, routed /56 prefix is available for free on request. Unlike on-link counterpart, routed IPv6 prefix does not need ndppd and is useful for VPN/proxy scenarios, as it allows you to use all 2^64 IPv6 address with almost no overhead.

I am surprised that it is actually nftables and not legacy iptables!
I am not sure how openwrt stores nftables config and how it looks, however you should find a `chain {}` block where `hook forward` is written, next lines within this block will specify policies regarding allowed traffic and there should be a rule lile `reject`
If it lools similar to what I have described then you need to add rules that will allow traffic to and from wireguard interface as it is currently allowed for your WAN interface (it might be eth0 for you)

2024-10-15 18:46:30

This sounds like iptables forward chain rejects traffic sent to wireguard from your lan
