Same with users. I feel his pain deeply. I’ve managed to stick around because of a lot of help from my parents and many developers around the world who have been extra kind and patient with me and my team. But Nostr needs basic stability across a few good solutions first and it needs to stop leaving half finished projects on the table and moving on to something new. I was told blossom servers would not work 6 months ago but numerous developers kept pushing me towards blossom - - all only to hear, again, blossom won’t likely work long term for media protection. I keep saying it but if developers would actually listen to users, maybe we could get some traction here.

So thrilled to be speaking at #BitcoinDay 2026 in Naples on 1/17! I’ll be on a panel with my girl @nprofile1q... 🩷⭐️ We’ll be speaking about using BTC as a force for good and how our generation is using this once in a generation technology to change antiquated systems like the music industry for the better! See you in the sunshine ☀️🌴

I am interested in this, seems like a great move in the right direction for IP protected media. But it still seems like you need to be running your own node to use this? - Start 9 or Umbrel - Is that right? I understand the benefit of having a node but most musicians don't have the money to buy one of these machines. Thanks for pushing the needle forward for helping content creators protect their media. 👏🏻

Thanks for the feedback @npub1f6ugx... I wonder if this is yet another weird #nostruser experience? This song is also available on all traditional distribution if you want to compare anywhere. And, oh @NickWheeler from #AllAmericanRejects produced it and he is amazing 🙌🙌🙌

Again. I paid Nostr build $71 a year?! I pay FAR-LESS than that to distribute video through distro-kid. This is not a user issue. This is a Nostr issue.
