Do you have suggestions? I am happy to listen to them. My next step is very likely Graphene OS. Any other interesting things to look into?

LN NODE debate for anyone who is up to:
I have been in BTC arena for several years, reading tons of informations. Long before opening my LN node (recently), I came to the conclusion that it is nearly impossible to make it profitable (right now) unless you run it as a business and lots of time and dedication is invested. I set up the node, pretty much convinced that I want to do it to contribute to the network rather than reach profitability.
If my above approach is correct (maybe is not and everyone should be looking for profit?), I am VERY interested to hear you out:
- do you agree with the above?
- Do you have recommendation for LN node operators who are not necessarily looking for immediate profit? What strategies do you advise?
- Do you advise on with who to open channels with and with who dont?
- Fee structure recommendation?
- Any comments?
I would be supper happy to hear your opinion, ideas, etc... Not necessarily related to my above questions!
Please feel free to REPOST and spread it. I am genuinely interested in reading your comments.
Thanks!

@npub1pls…kx8j Guys, you are doing a fantastic job, i love the app.
One small feedback/suggestion: to improve the follow up visualization of the threads in future releases.
In the below example, my response appears as Main Post (when is not), I was replying to the 1st message of a thread (it should be Main Post in this case). Also, there are addditional messages in the thread which i didnt get a notification and i believe that these posts happened after mine. Hence, wouldn't it make sens to visualize them in order from top to bottom?
As I said, i truly love your app. It is very engaging! Just friendly feedback!

So you believe Start9+Intel increases privacy vs. RaspberryPi+Umbrel. Interesting. I will do some search on this.

Yep, i hear good things too. At software level, I was wondering what makes it better than Umbrel. I will keep digging!

I run Umbrel under Raspberry Pi with no issues. I would like to know though what is the difference/benefits with Start9?

I love Plebstr, is very enjoyable. One request: to improve the search of profiles by npub keys. This step is missing and i need to switch to some other nostr app.

Maybe you are right, but there are also very succesful examples out there (ie. Linux, Bitcoin) which the base layer of functionalities created the community without any marketing plan.
The concern of loosing privacy, the potential idea of having thoughts/opinions manipulated through algorithms, the charming idea of having a secured and personal ID were you curate the content with free of speech, or you create your own content garden, etc... all these ideas that NOSTR brings will catch up step by step, the same way Bitcoin caught up with no marketing plan.
We will see NOSTR influencers paid by nobody praising its core functionalities: escape from the current madness and build your ID at your own rythm.

World hunger could be solved faster with #Bitcoin rather than with AI. The Bitcoin standard fixes this.
How many decades of world hunger speeches have we listened to with no result? It is the perfect endless narrative used by big international political institutions to perpetuate their policies over years.

Yep, the EigenLayer has been launched and it allows to restake the ETH, bringing up also some concerns on decentralization.

Could anybody summarize what is the risk behind the recent restaking issue in Ethereum? I just don't grasp the point of it.

Yeah, i have same setup and relay doesnt always connect to Damus. I am testing same setup with Plebstr: so far so good and the UX is much better than Damus. Give it a try.
