I’ve built a service that backs up nostr events. More precisely, it synchronizes between relays. There have probably been similar tools before, but what sets this apart is that it strictly synchronizes based on the outbox model. Well, maybe something like this already exists too, but who cares? The world is full of similar programs anyway. The usage is simple: just enter your npub and press the sync button below. From that moment, it starts going back in time until there are no more events to fetch, syncing the relays as it goes. It queries notes in chronological order and republishes them only to the relays where they’re missing. It syncs the posts I’ve written only to my write relays, and the posts I need to read only to my read relays. This whole idea was inspired by this post I deeply resonated with: View article → Because of that, the sync feature is not provided to users who have registered too many relays. This should be helpful when you’ve changed your relay configuration and want to back up your past notes to newly added relays.

Can someone recommend a combination of Bitcoin/Lightning Network node implementations that work well with a pruned Bitcoin node? I'm using Bitcoin Core and LND, and I've found that LND fails to sync properly when Bitcoin Core is pruned. #asknostr #lightning

I’m currently testing my local BTC, LND, Nostr relay, and Alby. Can you guys help me? If you reply to this note, I will zap you some sats via NWC, and then you can pay me back. I don’t have enough receiving capacity, so you should give me back less than what I give you. Help!

Is Alby Go only designed to connect to relays that start with TLS-enabled wss? I’ve been testing a relay that starts with ws, but it seems unable to connect. I’d like to know if this is due to a policy restriction or another issue. I confirmed that Alby Hub running on my PC connects well to my test relay, and both Amethyst and Wallet Connect work fine with it. (I haven’t added BTC to my LND yet, so I haven’t tested payments or zap functionality, but I did verify that event 13194 is being registered on the relay.) However, when I try to connect Alby Go with Alby Hub, it says it can’t connect to the relay, so I’m asking for clarification. @Alby #asknostr
