Lightning is worse than a shitcoin. At least you can send and receive a shitcoin.

I don't believe "private Bitcoin" can truly ever work. I don't understand why Monero is viewed as a competitor instead of a compliment.

Onchain zaps is the purest form of expression of the Nostr protocol. It's the first thing anyone thought when the read NIP-01. For years we're been living a lie. Look what that brought us. This is what Nostr IS. This is what Nostr HAS BEEN ALL ALONG. It it the TRUTH. image

Guys, I am announcing that I am stepping down as CEO of Soapbox. And becoming BDFL of Soapbox. There is actually no change. I just don't like the title "CEO" image

Shakespeare works as good if not better than Lovable, Replit, etc​ except it's open source and made by one guy, versus​ billion dollar companies with hundreds of employees. It requires no infrastructure because it works entirely on your device, so it scales infinitely for free.​ It does not seem like it should be possible. It's gotten basically no mainstream attention, and people are biased against it, believing it cannot be better than the crapware Big AI bubble software. But I'm here to tell you that it's not that hard.​
