In some situations the incentives align. Same as it's desirable for Youtube, Patreon, etc to pay & attract their creators. If the users of open source project bring value to the pr…

I can honestly report that big majority of Nostr users are very much against "crypto". Just ask on nostr "Do people here support crypto and all the various blockchains?" and you wi…

Yeah, Nostr is quite new compared to Mastodon. The clients became usable just this year. I posted my first note on Nostr in Dec 2021 and that was literally just days after the firs…

Nostr is quite open for what options people use to become more trustable. People can pay couple thousand sats to get a verification, or as you say Nostr can also do the same with s…

If you use bitcoin you can make services that provide value and get paid for those online without any identity involved. That's the main value. That said it's a bit complicated to …

There are ways to get non-bitcoin or non-nostr content - like following hashtags (in Amethyst and other clients), for example #grownostr #F1 #beerchain, etc. Generally whatever int…

Unfortunately from now on, the Mullvad Browser is the only browser you can use, ever. So you will be annoyed by this inconvenience a lot.

CBDCs are obviously evil, but I really wonder how come people don't fight more against KYC? KYC policies are truly exclusionary, they exclude literally millions of families from be…

It depends on which Nostr client you use? When you click on the "Tip" button it should give you couple options, like showing lightning QR code that you can scan with any lightning …

Great experience, have some Latte ;)

If you post ln address, I can send you some sats so you can have a coffee on me :)

With LN you can have a private channel with your friend and do unlimited number of transactions with (literally!) 0 fees. Thanks to recent developments it's also much easier (and c…

Between 1 to 100 satoshi usually - so fractions of a cent. (1 BTC = 100 000 000 sats)

Patreon bans podcasters sometimes, you also have to be in one of the lucky countries to be able to use it - other people are excluded. There are annoying fees that Patreon (and cre…

Nice tutorial. It takes some work, but all that crypto stuff can be disabled in Brave and then it works really well blocking ads and trackers...

You can run a node on your phone... Node is a different thing from a miner.

Another option is that the Fed stops printing trillions of new dollars out of thin air.

At that point the employer could ask for a reduction... The situation is symmetric.

What existing solution? The point here is that no one found a good solution yet...

It requires someone running a server device. I don't think that's a good direction to take unless it's really easy to enable that within the mobile app :(

It's great that the messaging works over bluetooth and local wifi, but I really wish the phone app would be able to cache and relay encrypted messages to others. Or does that someh…

The API doesn't even have support for Lightning.

Chivo is a "custodial" wallet, so Chivo is in charge of the funds and can block sending those anywhere if they want. From the current reports the $30 needs to be send to another Ch…

It's not the first time that you see a man defecate on the street that gets you. It's the second time. Speaking from experience of daily driving through Tenderloin.
