I may be going crazy but I think you can store passkeys in an app file rather than the OS.
For example, I just stored mine in a Keepass file using Strongbox on iOS.
Regarding the key, I assume they just need to add another app for social interaction but I think technically what they have already could be considered a monetary nostr clients.
You’re right though, I would like them to add a social capability in-app.

2024-07-18 02:02:03

- reply

So someone has a way for me to bind passkeys to a NOSTR login now?! If they have this code downloadable somewhere I may just have to move to a new npub!
This and keepass together may be all I need.
Their wording like it ultimately relies on Android or iOS is weird though. Passkeys are agnostic.

My 2 cents is major app devs need to agree to stop allowing priv key logins (or at least hid them in a sub-menu) and only extension or bunker. But that would mean every iOS app would stop operation.

I agree with a lot of what you’re saying. I disagree that it’s not worth preferring to use the products of those who you agree with and financially supporting (zaps to donos) those who are doing things aligned with your beliefs, whatever they may be. I’m not going to advocate for anyone else to boycott anything, I just don’t want to associate with a message or whoever says it that I don’t believe in. That’s OK.
I don’t think it has got to stop. I’m not marginalizing, I’m choosing.
I’ll still tell everyone I know of that is looking for features Coracle has that Coracle is a great app, I’m just not going to use it if I don’t support the developer. At least before he reproached it.
I don’t think by preferring to support only some products of NOSTR and none of the mainstream apps you mention am I creating an environment where those mainstream apps are having a benefit.
Re - leftist labeling crap. Believe what you want but let me get back to my owned land and property in the United States with my wife and kids where I spend my time aligning with conservative ideals while I celebrate national holidays when I have time to post on social media I typically avoid.

2024-06-19 18:47:25

Yes, I don’t fail to pay attention to the weaponization of almost everything done with good intentions.
Just because you didn’t celebrate it in your family before it was a national holiday doesn’t mean millions of Americans didn’t for decades before and have worked for years to have it be a holiday nationally and not just observed in their state. It’s anecdotal and I’m only saying it because the way you responded but my family has observed it for decades - it’s nothing new and it’s silly to imply otherwise.
No, im not reading some right-leaning or left-leaning article recommend to me by someone being as outwardly defensive as you are being.
I’m not saying you can’t consider yourself the victim and think your values are being attacked. It’s weird and irrelevant to me, I have no idea what you’re talking about regarding that, but go ahead.
“Call me racist” - I didn’t say anything remotely like that. I’m not calling you anything, I asked a clarify question because I wanted to make an informed decision on associating myself with, using, or financially supporting anything you work on with Nostr, Coracle or otherwise.
If your referenced values have you act the way you are now, then I want nothing to do directly with them, or you, or what you are making. That’s all I wanted to be sure of.
A strength of Nostr is that we don’t have to agree with others wholly to support parts Nostr. Those of us who have values they want to hold true to have to be sure of what they are associating with or supporting, regardless of who or what those values may be.
Thanks for clarifying.
Take care.

Are you being sarcastic or is that actually what you think?
Like do you have genuine familiarity with when and how it entered the consciousness of many people within the United States, and think it is only that and not more than a political tool?
I typically don’t engage with this type of stuff but I actually do want to make sure I’m not misunderstanding because of the work you are doing with Nostr.
Do you actually believe “Juneteenth is political rhetorical” exclusively or is perhaps otherwise than exclusively?

It does do something.
It’s not posted on your note for you to see it. Clients can hide that event so you don’t even have to see it. Apps can use the results to filter out content.
For example __
Follow the Tagr bot to filter out NSFW and harassing text. Tagr bot screens the text people followed by Nos users for NSFW, illegal, and harassing content and displays a Tagr overlay of the content for those who follow the bot. Users who follow the bot still have the option to view the content if they choose.

Free speech is great yep, but it’s so easy to just mute and move on.
The bot flags stuff and if I remember correctly, it’s even a different nostr “kind” so clients can not show it.
You actively went to his notes and off-topic spoke with vitriol. I don’t see the bot doing that.

Normalize non-anons. Don’t reboot your identity. Don’t delete your accounts (spoiler: you can’t). Don’t start over finding your friends again. Ask more of clients and relays to support long-lasting identities so you can build connections and grow old with it.

#amethyst
@npub1gcx…nj5z
Hey. So I heard some great things about Amethyst so I got ahold of an Android phone to try it out.
It’s awesome! I did find several things probably worth reporting though in case they haven’t been found yet.
v0.87.5-PLAY
Here you go.
- When I click to edit my photo or banner the buttons at the top render and then 1 second later they jump up several pixels.
- When writing a new note, there’s a button in the top middle of the window that I think is to pick relays. When I click on it, the app crashes (Android 14, kernel 5/13/2024).
- It looks like there are two buttons on the profile screen to copy the npub. I assume one copied to users name but they actually appear to be duplicate and both copy the whole npub.
- If I click my profile in the top-right corner, sometimes the back button must be pressed twice to return to the previous screen instead of once.
- My profile photo on my profile page fills the circle around profile photos but on the profile editing page it doesn’t. It shows some of my banner inside the profile photo circle. I think this is because my photo is portrait.
- Under “hidden words” the button to add hidden words is grayed out and not clickable but I don’t see if say anywhere why.
- If in you have “note discovery” selected in the 4th tab and you leave that tab and come back, pressing “marketplace” doesn’t work on the first try. You have to press it a couple of times.
Thanks for having such an awesome Android app for Android users!

Oh nice. I didn’t know tapping the left and right would switch notes.
I think the first time I used it I tried swiping and then when swiping switched between people it didn’t seem quite right so I stopped using it.
For example, I clicked on a person to get there so I guess I assumed swiping wouldn’t switch to a different person once I was in there, if that makes sense.
Cheers to the new feature though!

Excellent question. Keeping your ear to the ground and asking around probably.
Over the years I assume people will make spreadsheets comparing the relays and clients and those columns will be on there.
For now, it’s about finding out.
For example, I recently contacted one of the major app-dev/relay-hoster about potentially-illegal content referenced in a post. They said they wouldn’t do anything about it because the content wasn’t hosted by them.

Im well aware of the artilce.
I asked “who in this scenario are the ones upset about an article and DMing the writer they shouldn’t have done?” hoping it was apparent I was referring to many Nostr users talking about this.
An opinon expose piece is written and its “cancel culture” but people DMing the writer telling them they should feel bad for it are not? Thats crazy.
Im not “reading between the lines” (buying your narrative). There is so much overreaction about this. The apparent freedom some Nostr users advocate for here seems to be so thin-skinned its hard to take it seriously.

Privately messaging someone how upset you are really doesn’t make Nostr look good to non-nostr users.
You risk feeding the beast and giving even more fuel for their fire.
They don’t see it as a problem for someone to be named, so they won’t see this as warranted and can blow it out of proportion.

Daylightco is a yellow-backlight only LCD. More like a traditional monitor and requires a light, albeit an amber color.
This screen is an e-ink and doesn’t require a light.
Is e-ink actually required? Eh. But it’s nice that it doesn’t actually need a backlight shining at you, regardless of color.
Even e-inks don’t solve the issue of straining your eyes by staring at small objects, not blinking, or not staring into the distance occasionally.
Both really cool though and looking forward to what daylightco says.

Understood. The bummer is that I don’t think someone has worked out storing your nsec in a way apps can use it yet, only websites.
If your on iPhone and ever want to try a Nostr website without sharing your nsec be sure to try out “Nostore” from the App Store - you enter the key there once and then you don’t need to share it with other sites.

- reply

I disagree completely and I’m not trying to destroy nostr.
In fact, I believe Nostr can succeed because of it.
A user configures their experience by choosing a client, a relay, or their configuration.
Clients and relays can do whatever they want - nobody can stop them with nostrs current framework.
To be blunt - this exactly the type of freedom that makes the internet and its clients work.
Nobody is surprised when they launch the Spotify app or website and it doesn’t show content from yahoo.com.
I primarily browse Nostr via global (firehose). It is a complete mess. This stuff has to be tuned and nobody has to ask permission to do it with Nostr.
