Every now and then, some bitcoiners go into this shitcoinary phase.
Then reality hits them in the face and they snap back to maximalism.

Imagine a small group of people owning cars in a world where people still ride horses.
But car owners don’t drive their cars. Instead they park them at home, because they believe, in the future, cars will be everywhere and they will become more valuable.

I put myself in a stupid corner where my Mac is on beta, and will only accept Xcode-Beta, and Apple does not accept app updates from Xcode-beta.
I have 3 apps ready for an update, and xcloud was not setup correctly to build and deploy.
Looks like I’ll be busy in September pushing updates. To Cove, MempoolTV, and FastDiet.

Yes. By my service won’t be open for everyone, I don’t believe I have the means for this right now. Only nostrarabia.com folks.
But i wonder how much more from this point needs to be done so that folks can run their own relay, and just get a subdomain.

I vibed a service that provision a small relay with 1gb of storage and a subdomain.
Did not deploy it yet, it’s almost ready, I just need to test a couple of things.
I would guess that technically works even for distributed raspberry pi’s. Might require a little more coding to be true plug and play.

I want a nostr client called DarkMatter.
It doesn’t show you any notes or notifications from people you follow or follow you.
It’s designed specifically to let you explore the parts of nostr you don’t know exists.

I like to share links out to posts like styff that @nprofile…70gp , @nprofile…4y0r , @nprofile…g9qy posts, and many other "news" like posts. but i think we need more people sharing out from nostr.
But those links need to render nicely inside the chats, get a very nice image and text to get people to click them.
Then nice rendering on the mobile site.

Does not have to be a full client btw. even a simple page to render is enough.
Something like this, is passable, could be better of course.

i like it more than just dealing with the TUI, or their old dashboard. I mostly talk to my Hermes agent through chat apps, but the new interface makes desktop use much much better.

I am still convinced that the best way to get people to come to nostr is to share links out.
But they have to render on a website in a clean way, with a very good way for people to onboard right then and there. Preferably with an app install button.
I share soooo many links out to WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram group chats all the time. Just like how a lot of people share X links.

Proof of Zarb.
Zarb is a style of cooking where you put all the rice, vegetables, and a whole lamb in a large pot. Dig a deep hole, start a fire inside, put the pot, bury everything and let it cook for hours.
The result is a brisket tinder lamb meat where the meat slips off the bones.

How did you create it?
Thinking of attempting to create my own as well, but I don’t have enough knowledge.

2026-08-25 15:00:19 UTC

What happens if we create something like this? Does it help with relay management or no?
Idea: Relay Routing Graph (NIP-RG)
Relay management is complex UX in Nostr. New users have to pick relays at signup. Paid relays silently break the outbox model. Every client re-solves the same routing problem independently.
What if users never had to think about relays at all?
The proposal:
A replaceable event that publishes a map of pubkeys to relay clusters. Clients fetch it and route based on intent — who are you interacting with?
• Replying to someone? Send to their cluster's relays
• Zapping someone? Same
• New post? Send to your own cluster's relays
Different recipients → different relays → natural distribution. No centralization.
How clusters form:
A graph builder crawls NIP-65 relay lists and groups users by relay overlap. ~300 relays, ~50 clusters. Published as one small event anyone can fetch.
Paid relays:
The builder detects "bridge relays" — free relays that mirror paid ones. Clients route through bridges to reach paid audiences without paying.
Onboarding:
New users auto-placed in a default cluster. They participate fully without ever touching relay settings. NIP-65 becomes optional — set it for more precise routing, ignore it and you still work.
Properties:
• No trusted third party — anyone can build and publish a graph
• Graceful degradation — graph → NIP-65 → legacy
• Privacy-safe — computation over already-public data

Hmm… these are good questions. not 100% sure how Damus does it.
It just pulls from those right? And probably not ALL content. Just what it needs I’m assuming.
Not sure if other clients do this better generally speaking.

2026-08-25 13:49:25 UTC

There must be something I don’t understand. Maybe this is an outbox model thing which I don’t use.
My client pulls all notes it finds period. So if the bot replies to something, and that note lands on Primal or any other big relay, my client will pull it.
How can I filter at a relay level?
