"Many of the calamities from which science is expected to save the world were caused in the first place by science - which meanwhile is busy propagating further calamities, hailed now as wonders, from which later it will undertake to save the world.

I feel like the more nationalized and bureaucratized scientific study has become, the less innovation it has produced. There are apparently so many scientists now busying themselves with little other than writing grant applications, i.e. begging other bureaucrats for money. There hasn't been a major...

During the flotilla onboarding it mentions things like signers and bunkers in a way that makes it seem like that’s the correct way to do it. Once you’re in, it also says you should use a signer if you want to enable DMs (which is odd because that seems like a core functionality of the app, so wh...

If you are keeping it public, make sure to either put it behind Cloudflare and enable bot protection or get something like Anubis going (I ended up bringing my instance behind my LAN + VPN and mirroring it to GitHub). Crawlers are thirsty for "organic" code at the moment.

Perhaps this nostr auth for gitea is of interest to you. Might lower the barrier to contribute by skipping the typical sign up: https://git.mleku.dev/mleku/gitea-nostr-auth

There are several signer apps for iOS now. Do you recommend any of them for flotilla? I notice DMs seem to want you to use a signer. So maybe there is one that works best on iOS with flotilla?
