Testing the irc client via the nostr-sg relay to check propogation

Recent updates to nostr-irc: - BUGFIX: Randomly generated keys were not in correct format - Pulls keypair friend list and no longer my static pubkey friends - Command handler implementation start - Better utf-8 encoding support - Input bar labelling changes for pubkey vs NIP05 - More refreshing, more flavor (faster screen refresh) - “/who” general command now works

Does anyone know how many events (posts, reposts, zaps, and notifications) the hellthread spawned? I would love to see those stats but I don’t want to tackle that script personally.

I removed my joke post as I don't want keys exposed. Sometimes the troll is strong.

Woke up and looked at notifications today

I've been off Twitter for 18 days so far and will continue forward with you all during the #MarchOffTwitter

You can tell the exact moment here when the zaps and notifications started

I tell people "I was just zapped bitcoin on nostr for my post" and it is received as a statement of confusion and entitlement. I then tell them "I was just paid $20 USD for a Facebook post" and they have a sudden interest and want to know how. How can we abstract away from the termonology and lift that still exists for onboarding bitcoin and now nostr? I've always said that as long as we use the terms wallets, keys, address, and words that have existing tangible meaning we will continue to confuse and encounter friction with the most general user archetype.

Does nostr-irc need a /slap command with large trouts? Would this get too spammy? 🤔

Bedtime is the right time to fight crime

The “Not Using Twitter” invoice from yesterday went unpaid. While I will suspend posting daily updates, I’m going to personally continue the streak of not using Twitter. Days = 18 Total Sats Received = 13600 Total USD Value = ~$3.20 I’m not aware of any other protocol that pays you to not do something. In my mind this is a win.

pv ☀️ what do you have planned for today? what big rock will you remove that’s blocking you?

I just had an eye exam and my eyes are getting better naturally over time. I’ve also never broken a bone.

“We detected spelling errors in your note. Do you still wish to post? Yes/No" The first client to implement this gets my sats.
