@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... I had the same idea, only then I remembered photosynthesis doesn't work by night 😄

Window (actually, a door) open. Ceiling fan on. But even then, overnight in the bedroom hits 1,000 ppm of CO₂. This doesn’t seem great. Unsure of how to reduce it. Any ideas? https://assets.bne.s...

@nprofile1q... can’t you just sleep in the open, like all proper australians do? 🐍🐊🕷️🔪 😆

@nprofile1q... yes it does.When network is down it might signal not reachable, but when the connection is restored it should reconnect automatically.

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... Hi Steven I agree with you 100%, but at this point the number of hosting services that offer wallet + metadata is 0. We are trying to set things in motion.

I spun up my own BoostBox last night. I didn't want to but having my own that I can access makes this all much easier to test. I also have everything displayed on the main page and if you click on one...

@nprofile1q... if we can have a common server, maybe hosted by podcast index, it would be great for me. I’m not too confortable on hosting users messages. I think I'll put an expiration date so messages are purged after 1 month.

Your wallet is just full of urls and that's not very helpful either. Maybe a central server would help with that or...

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... @Darren @nprofile1q... Current Castamatic beta supports NWC. https://castamatic.com/beta - if your alby wallet is connected, just disconnect and ask to connect to a new wallet and you'll have the NWC option.

Inappropriate indeed!
Dear Podcast Addict, don't you think that if the podcaster wanted to associate images to his own chapters, he would specify them himself?

@nprofile1q... when connecting to a wallet that doesn't support keysend, Castamatic alerts the user only LnAddress will be used.

The new Castamatic beta includes, among many other new features, the ability to use NWC wallets. I’ve already tested a few different services with mixed results. AlbyHub works very well. Primal works fine for LNURLp but does not support keysend. I’m not able to test with Strike because it’s not available in my country. If anyone wants to try it out and share feedback, that would be great:
