neo on nostr

Recent Notes

In 2014 I switched from iPhone to Android after Apple removed Bitcoin apps from the app store. I was thinking of going back to iPhone, but in light of recent news...

I switched back just last week. Damned Apple.

#CNostr can't load some images because the wall，if give two or more urls will same picture show many times and waste data traffic . So can we #Nostr like HTML img tag onerror： ``` <img src=...

neo @neo 1683400534

Adding more URLs just delays the problem. It does not provide a means for recovery.

Question for #selfhosters, which one do you generally prefer and why? A) Containerize the service with e.g. Docker B) Run the service directly on the host machine

neo @neo 1681237351

B.

Imho docker is a trap. It makes you think it simplifies things because the initial install is quick. But everything that comes next is unnecessarily complex.

I'm often suspicious of Docker. It seems we keep solving the "containerization" problem over and over with virtual machines, containers, etc., and this makes me think we're going about software in the wrong way.

They can make things harder though.

I think people see the potential, but are also worried about vendor lock-in. Imagine every app having its own wallet 'because powerful features". It would be a mess.

That only works for apps that support this NIP, which is probably limited to Nostr clients.

Lightning wallets have a much broader use case.

I don't think people understand how powerful this Wallet Connect NIP is. Here are a few ideas that can be built it top of it: - Setup recurring payments in native Nostr (think monthly subscription...

the point of doing it over nostr instead of over the LNDhub API is to avoid vendor lock-in.

Vitor Pamplona · 165w

Thats another reason to be a NIP. All of this is saved on relays. Any client can just implement it and move the user forward.

Actually, this is exactly what you will see. 👀 Just a hypotheses. Think loyalty programs.

Wow, nos.social looks NICE

neo @neo 1679340267

Glad to see him make the switch. Hope other SSB devs do the same.

I did like that SSB can work P2P over bluetooth etc. when the Internet is gone. But I'm sure someone will come up with a P2P mode NIP for Nostr sooner or later.

hodlbod · 165w

Definitely, and it'll be nice to have SSB devs around to help us make that happen.

Hear me out: A Nostr Service where you can send leaked private keys to: 1. delete everything from those keys everywhere 2. watch for new posts from those keys and delete them as well, forever. The ...

Add an (optional) timestamp. I don't want my past wiped, just block future events.

You won't have that choice. If people have your keys, they can do everything.
