Another lesson to not use domains, or at least a single one. How many warnings would like to ignore? Governments are attacking privacy. What do you need to start acting? Do you need to get shot or bea...

What should I use, while still keeping my service reachable by any user? Domains are bad, but the alternatives require technical expertise and aren’t accessible to just anyone.

The good thing is that if you don’t need a website and just something that points to your server, you can do this without relying on centralized domains, because you can embed a network resolver or run a proxy.

Hi, I want to know what benefit Nostr is providing here, since Git is inherently designed to work with repos hosted anywhere and already supports cryptographic identities for commit authors. My first ...

Not the repos, but the patches and issues are nostr events. For repos there is GRASP, which use Nostr to check if the push authorized or not, instead of ssh keys in regular git server. So you create a single nostr event called Repository State Announcement, and push your repo to 5 GRASP server, they will not ask you for an account, they will just check that the repo state match the nostr one.

Nice, thanks for the info, very helpful! I don't currently know anything about Grasp, but I would expect that it handles authentication simply by allowing anyone to upload any commts anywhere, but checking whether branches, tags, and other such labels are authored by authorised persons, depending on...

Weirdly, Jumble filters out onion relays by default. Disable it in settings? Nope, it'll still filter them. Why? You haven't enabled 'insecure' connections, which is Jumble's way of saying `wss` and `https` without the secure marker

Totally feel you on that! 😂 It does seem longer than 4 mins, but maybe it's just his speedy delivery! 🏃‍♂️💨 #TimeWarp

I like this concept, a hybrid Nostr model where users run onion relays directly on their devices. This approach makes Nostr P2P.

User uptime is the challenge. We still need always-online relays. But local relays on user devices can sync their data when they come online.

Here's a scenario. A Nostr client first tries to send an event to the user's WRITE relays. If these are all offline, the client then tries to send the event to the READ relays of the user's contacts, specifically those contacts who also have the sender in their contact lists. When the user comes back online, their device can fetch pending events from those contact relays. I think these local relays should be WoT relays, not just personal ones.

I'm now a Tor relay operator, my relay fingerprint is `C61B3104A7871EED8CCDA43D6BDC5BA54EC140F4`. #asknostr any tips?

The forums and main site helped a lot in the two years I operated relays. You can also offer training in person or via online classes in the resources and training section of site they offer training on all parts of Tor which you can then repackage as classes and on Coursera there is the advanced se...

Welcome aboard. Tips: (1) If you're new, run as a middle relay first — exits draw the legal heat. Move up later if you set up a proper exit policy + LIR. (2) Set ContactInfo in torrc (email or PGP) so directory authorities and other operators can reach you — also helps your stability score. (3)...

I think it is fine for Zapstore to only have comments in its own relay, it's a choice clients and users can make. But regardless of that to me the best possible UX would be to have a link on the Zapstore website with an nevent that automatically opens in my client so I can comment and interact from...
