New video: Thoughts on the Superbowl Coinbase advertisement and the reactions it caused
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lIYaXHdyRY
In this video, I share my thoughts on the Superbowl Coinbase ad, which featured a clever use of karaoke to get people at Superbowl parties singing "Everybody" by The Backstreet Boys. It worked, however, the viral reactions of groups of people mocking the emergence of the coinbase logo show just how far cryptocurrency has to go to earn back its reputation. Comparing this to the unbearably cringe "Bitcoin Commencement Speech" at Ohio State a few years ago, I reason that a shift from moonboyism is the only way to keep things moving forward.

Am I using Nostrudel wrong or do you have any recommendations for better applications?
I'd like to be notified if I get somebody commenting or quoteposting my content, but this is only available in 'Notifications' and it is buggy.

This went under the radar, but the Monero Research Lab reached a consensus regarding scaling with the FCMP++ hard fork. There will be no sanity cap on block size, meaning it would take "2-3 years" of aggressive growth for things to break. This would give devs time to find a solution in case this exponential growth were to happen, while also not encoding any hard cap into the code and utilizing the agreed upon long term medians which naturally grow blocks over time (if there is an increase in usage).
