Would any have an incentive to do this?
Just thinking aloud.
I'd love Nostr to grow.

Ayn Rand explained it well.
The root cause is the basic error in philosophy most people have.
They mistakenly think that altruism is a virtue and so communism is an ideal, if only they could make it work.
In other words, despite the track record of 100 million deaths, many people think communism is an ideal and if only human nature was different, or, if only we tried harder this time...

Is it really an e-mail as well?
When I look at my alby account, I have another email address entered, as my email
Was it that, as you created the Alby account, you could get the email in getalby .com domain as well?
Just curious
Thanks

Beautiful picture
You could be conscripted, by force, drafted to the Russian army and quickly or slowly die in the war in Ukraine, like 300,000 Russians already have
You could go to prison for 15 years for criticism of the government, like for calling this war a war; their propaganda calls it a "special operation"
There is more, but I will stop here
Of course, US and EU are very far from ideal, in terms of freedom, monetary policy, economic policy, etc
There is a lot to criticize there
But Russia is the order of magnitude worse
Sure they have beautiful nature, mostly friendly people and so on
But Russian Federation is an oppressive and corrupt state
I wish it was otherwise but this is the reality, at least how I see it
Check any freedom index or human development index countries ranking, easy to find online

I asked AI what is "conditional acceptance" in taxes...
it said:
In the context of taxes, conditional acceptance can be used to challenge a tax liability or demand. For example, if the IRS sends you a notice that you owe $5,000 in taxes, you can reply with a conditional acceptance that says you will pay the amount if the IRS provides proof that you are liable for the tax and that the amount is correct. This way, you are not rejecting the offer or admitting to the debt, but rather asking for more information or evidence before you agree to pay.
Conditional acceptance can also be used to request an extension or a waiver of penalties for filing or paying taxes late.

True.
How might we convince the government to start using Nostr for communication?
(while probably most of us Nostr users think that government is a criminal protection racket)
Impossible, I guess.
But I agree, they should.

You are right, only actions matter.
I get it, the user interface of a degoogled phone may be the same. That's not my concern.
But is it "easy" to make the switch?
Well, perhaps I'm missing something, I'd love to be wrong, but it seems to me that Graphene OS or Calyx OS works on Pixel phones only, and I don't have a phone like this right now, and they are unavailable where I live, at least not easily available and a cost to buy one if not trivial to me.
Is there an OS that will work on wide range of devices? I have a phone that is 3 years old, running Android 11 today.

I struggle with this, too.
I find it difficult to figure out what is true, with regards to issues you listed, like a climate.
The truth exists, I believe. There is an absolute truth that is independent from our opinions.
But to find out what the truth is, and form a conclusive opinion, with a high level of certainty, for these complex issues, would require a tremendous effort from a regular person like me.
And so the question I ask myself, do I care to invest time in researching the climate or aliens out vaccines?
Do these things impact me? Some do, in a more or less direct way.
Can I do anything about them myself? Close to nothing, in terms of impact of the actions I can take.
So I think, perhaps I should "just live".
Just focus on what's in my control and influence. My health, habits, family, friends, savings.
Do I completely ignore the news? No but, I guess I'm seeing the right balance and approach to this.
Even if some of these things impact me directly one day, which they may, me spending a lot of time now worrying about it or researching it, may not be the best use of time, right? Or is it?

Do the results, measured by breath hold time, really matter that much?
Isn't it that the process, the doing of the breath work, is what actually matters and has benefits?
I like to think about it this way. I usually get to 1:30 only, occasionally more.
Good luck!
