Nigger1488

I'm guessing it's so you can actually look someone up by their username instead of their public key - inginsub better pay up his sats to become the real Nigger1488

I kinna misremembered - it's more like DNS but for your username and you pay someone to add your public key mapping to your username (or just host yourself) (or just do not fucking care)

lmaooooo - I think I saw that on the nostr info page for hosting your public key as a service (lol lmao) but not for just paying to sub and post on them

idk if it's "curated" for them per se or if the zapping feature just drew them like flies to a pile of dogshit

this is dependent on the new relay creators actually subbing to the relay list thing and then dependent again on the relay list guy not going janny-mode on who he lets stay on the list. There will likely be multiple such lists created according to jannying disputes making the whole process more difficult.

that being said - idk the technical details of the protocol well enough but like why cant we just make relays federate with each other - even if it's as simple as you make a relay and when you make your relay follow a relay it autofollows back along with all the relays that follow it

cyberia federates with >10,000 instances and I cbf clicking a button that many times (currently following like 10 relays) - there's no way you can match the decentralisation of fedi with an opt-in/manual system like this

yeah it's kinna fucked up

if there isn't already someone will make a relay list you can subscribe to and autofollow like a hosts.txt lol - which would somewhat work but it will be vulnerable to jannying

you will end up with like barely anyone seeing your posts tbh, it'll be just void posting. If only relays could federate with/follow each other that would be epic.

if i'm understanding correctly

yeah but you've got to hope niggas will follow your self-hosted relay unlike fedi where they are forced to see your shit unless they specifically defederate you

and you killed it

I kinna dislike that you have to manually follow relays though, seems like it will always be a lot more centralised than fedi is because of that.

I like that your identity is not being kept on one instance - makes it easier to go migrate wherever you want and harder to get fucked over by an admin. I imagine this shit will be used as like the decentralised equivalent of a google account. You'll log into nostr-youtube with this and so on. Probably the future in terms of getting normies on this shit.

what if zapping was actually a button to electrocute them

Are there any nostr browser clients that show notifications in an always-visible sidebar?

2023-02-25 23:51:25

- reply

I'm gonna try out a few clients and see if there are any that aren't dogshit

I want to give the protocol a chance

You have to click to see notifications (I don't have the object permanence for this) which then take up the entire screen which in turn discourages you from clicking them because it interrupts the timeline viewing experience.
The permanent notifications bar in the third column is perfect, I can see it all the time and it does not intrude on my scroooolling.

Decided I'm not a fan of federating manually

2023-02-25 23:11:47

#[0] this is so fucked up

tbh pleroma-fe is the perfect UI, I only wish that your timeline selection would persist instead of always defaulting to home timeline

2023-02-25 22:59:53

how do I automatically subscribe to every relay that exists forever I don't want anyone to be able to escape me
