me: ordinals pass the bar for rough consensus and running code, you can do as you please with your sats, there are no protocol police also me: the decline of usenet began when users figured out how to use it to store data

Usenet History: How Binaries Took Over Newsgroups

How Usenet—a protocol intended for conversations—was forever changed once the public figured out you could transfer binary files through it.

yeeeurgh just discovered a nasty bug in wss://nostr.relayer.se. fixing now, apologies for the unscheduled maintenance window :(

Question for relay users (so, everyone on nostr): So far I've been focusing on making my relay as private as possible - Onion Hidden V3 Service, running in njal.la, top level domains registered in privacy friendly jurisdictions, etc. What other features would you like to see in a privacy-focused relay?

If you're a nostr client developer looking to play around with a relay that's available as a Tor Onion v3 Hidden Service: wss://nostr.relayer.se in clearnet is now also reachable at: geeafhmczfy5jmfc36ud2vgfotsrdnc2vwrp2kczjka4afx42quc3qqd.onion

I wonder if there's any inteset in something like moa.party but for crossposting tweets a set of nostr relays instead of mastodon toots

GitLab

FedStoa / moa · GitLab

New home of Moa. Cross post between Mastodon, Twitter, and Instagram. Original repo on GitHub

So one thing I think nostr has gotten really, really right: switching costs between relays are insanely low by design.

Getting ready for nostr November...
