FYI I'm writing a script that keeps your 10 most recent Kind 3 events (following list) but deletes any that are older than those 10. The 10 lets you restore your following should you lose it. Kind 3 are *space hogs* are constitute about half the current database size while most of those records are unused.

Ok definitely going to have to limit how many badges are shown on a note lol #[0] 

Probably my favorite badge so far 😂 

Coming soon to NostrGram... 

One more word on Nostr spam. The spam that I'm deleting is mostly from before relays started implementing spam prevention. I'm seeing a lot less of it now, which means relays are doing a good job with spam prevention. The worst offenders in the spam id routine I just ran stopped showing up towards the end of the database -- which is when relays started implementing spam prevention.
So toss a sat-coin to your relay.
The Great AI has spoken. NO-str it is. 

NOSTRGRAM UPDATE - CUSTOM ZAP AMOUNTS
You can now set the default amounts of the Zaps in the ⚡ pop-up box. Watch this quick video to see how it works. Refresh the page for the update.
s/o #[0] for the suggestion
s/o #[1] for reminding me so I actually did it
So in response to a reply by #[0] I added code into NostrGram to intercept a longpress on mobile, but I'm not sure what to use it on lol. His idea was to have a quick press of the ⚡ send a fixed amount of sats and the longpress bring up the pop-up for sending different amounts. Thoughts?
What do you think of an option in NostrGram to send a Zap of a fixed amount that you determine every time you Like a note? Alby lets you set a budget so if you have Alby you wouldn't have to keep approving each ⚡. Just thinking out loud.
Nostr ⚡ Stats
109,541 ⚡ totaling 290,602,896 sats
🙏 for the ⚡ folks. They really matter when putting this much time into NostrGram. 💜
NOSTRGRAM UPDATE: Fix For Those Who Couldn't Connect (blank screen)
If you haven't been able to use NostrGram since I switched it to using a web socket server (if you were getting a blank screen with just a few icons on it), you should now be able to connect again.
NostrGram now automatically switches to the previous connection method (REST) if the web socket server is unavailable for any reason. It does this seamlessly, so if you're on mobile and end up on a network that won't connect to the socket server, it falls back to REST without you having to do anything.
This should greatly improve the connectivity experience with NostrGram while still maintaining better performance generally since most people, most of the time have no issues connecting to the socket server.
I also added a ⚡ notification on desktop that appears in the upper-right corner for about 10 seconds when you get a ⚡. Click on the icon to go to the note the ⚡ originated from.
As always, I appreciate your support via ⚡. It makes my work with NostrGram possible. Thank you for using NostrGram!
