Destroyer of Notes

twitter shadow bans the word nostr. I notice when i use it in my posts i get 0 engagement and likes. This is an account with like 50k followers.
I only get engagement if i don’t use the word nostr in the body

lightning network node-runners feels like a social network to me. just a bunch of enthusiasts building channels between each other to improve payment connectivity and decentralization on the network. like the early internet and autonomous systems.

I haven’t “managed” my channels in years. If I can’t pay someone i just open a channel in their direction. For inbound i just ask them to open a channel to me or buy one (but i’ve never had to buy one)

2026-05-27 19:51:45 UTC

i love when i know someone who actually runs a lightning node. especially if they are a vendor. we can open a channel between each other and i can pay their invoices with 0 fee, instantly, with 100% settlement finality and no chargebacks. lightning is magical.

we have to sell a revolution and a movement, not the tech. even though the tech does enable the movement, but thats not what people care about. they care about being a part of something important.
sell this and we win

2026-05-25 08:08:41 UTC

Theres enough stuff built here, starting to think the most valuable use of my time is to start promoting freedom tech on social media like instagram. Posting every day, viral hooks, etc. not sure what else will bring the masses here more effectively.
Otherwise all this work is at risk of becoming a tech graveyard

the idea is to have a button when composing a reply that allows you to send a zap with the reply. once the zap is received by the person you're replying to, the zap request metadata on the zap would include the noteid that should be decorated. then in the UI you would show that it was a "zap reply" and maybe put it near the top of the thread

its rust + egui + wgpu. renders directly to gpu. immediate mode ui. it doesn't render continuously, but renders when something changes so battery life is very minimal.
it can render 240fps+ doing hundreds of nostrdb queries per frame (nostrdb queries are as fast as a hashtable lookup). so every frame is the fresh state of the db.

Kademlia is better than relays is a strong statement. p2p isn’t always reliable, especially where there is no global. you kinda just need to hope you connect to the peers that have the content you want?
We already have issues with too many connections in the outbox model, I can’t imagine low value p2p connections taking up precious connection slots.

spark would only make sense for small amounts, as that is not economical to go onchain. I prefer the graduated wallet approach where a real lightning channel gets created after some threshold, but there are still so many ux issues with that like offline receive. I dunno man

to be fair there was only a brief period when i liked odell until i realized his circle jerk with nvk/miljan and how they have completely rigged funding so that they friends win and others lose (see seedsigner, etc)

i had to write a python script to create the json for the bitcoin-core descriptor wallet, not sure if anyone else has done this yet but i can release this.
its basically:
bitcoin-cli createwallet nostr
bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=nostr importdescriptors '[{"desc":"tr(<wif-nsec>)#0d08ujnx","active":false,"timestamp":1697958000,"internal":true}]'
then bitcoin-core will have access to all your nostr onchain txs
