True, but having talked to some non Bitcoiners it could be helpful to either have Oauth or more of an explanation of what nsecs entale inside clients

2024-01-06 19:52:37 UTC

A big issue detering new nostriches is the convolution on the key system (although I love it). More Oauth like experiences could be a huge boost in accessibility for the less technically inclined.

Yeah absolutely, the reason ThinkPads are so appealing is the upgradeability. I have a decent desktop already, so I'm probably going to grab a cheap t480 or 90! It's just going to be used for web development and college work so something older should do the job

Ahh gotcha, didn't realize different even types could be used in that way. To use a special event type in an application would it need to be "registered" in any way or do you just kinda go for it?

2023-03-12 17:35:57 UTC

When people inevitably start building on the **other stuff**, is it more likely that the applications will be walled off on private relays or some how find a way to filter public relays?
For instance, if someone chooses to develop a nostr based market place, how would they go about insuring that the events in their site aren't flooding note based clients?

#[0] do you think it is reasonable to rely almost entirely on the wine filter? I was trying to cut down my 20+ relay list for performance, and am currently down to 6 comprised of wine filter and paid relays. Seems to be working well but unsure if this is a good setup

- reply

I would have to say notes > contacts > dms
This is highly personal though, mostly because I rarely use dms. I highly value notes because of previous reasons, and value contacts quite a bit because I've accidentally wiped my whole list before and it's an absolute pain

2023-03-08 16:57:29 UTC

- reply

Just my own. by nostr nature your data is very volatile, so if in some extreme case all of the public relays I use went down, all of my data is effectively gone. So if I have them backed up on a private relay I can simply rebroadcast all my data to a new set of relays

2023-03-08 16:46:36 UTC

- reply

The most important to me is notes, just for posterity sake. I think the coolest part of nostr is how permanent everything is, so I want to make sure my posts are backed up somewhere just in case
on the other hand I'm not too worried about backing up my likes/reactions because they don't matter much anyway lol
