It's weird, We used to joke about Bitcoin "crashing" too 100k during COVID... That March 2020 candle was pretty brutal, and yet in some ways the recent sideways chop feels worse somehow.... It feels gross to even just say that. Good to step back and get some perspective at times like this. Things have come so far. Every time I feel myself getting lost in the weeds I log back into nostr and it's always very refreshing.
So if you're reading this, thanks for being here!

Trying to get a good understanding of the core versus knots debate is enough to give anyone a real headache. I'm pretty technically proficient myself and even I'm still getting my mind wrapped around it. I can't imagine how anyone with less time and experience in Bitcoin than me could really feel confident in their opinion without just blindly trusting whoever people they tend to follow. Admittedly I haven't spent as much time on it as some people so I don't really have a strong opinion just yet.
Nostr and Twitter definitely feel like very different conversations. That's definitely telling me something. Is it all just Twitter algorithm feeding me the most rage baity stuff and/or reinforcing the opinions of people whose posts I tend to click on the most? Seems possible.
I know this is a white Hot topic so please be nice (or don't) I'm just trying to gather information. What do you guys think? What are some good arguments to listen to from both sides? Looking for signal in the noise.
Help is appreciated as always.
This is the kind of signal I come here for.
Put it straight into my veins!!

Going to start using Nostr on a regular basis again but I fell off since 2023. I know how everything works still but some of my information is obviously out of date and I need some tips for getting back up to speed.
What are the most popular implementations now? I'm still using amethyst but I have primal downloaded as well just not set up. Using android.
Also, what are the best lightning wallet/addresses for plugging into Nostr and getting things working in a hurry? My old ones are definitely broken from the looks of thing.
I appreciate any help!
GM.
Planning on starting the transition from Windows to Linux soon. Likely going with pop OS for a daily driver. Any one got some tips and tricks?
GM. Happy killdozer day.

Hey Nostr! Been a while. I need more bitcoiners in my life.
Oh jeez, they're about to print a fuckton of money, aren't they?
See you nerds in Nashville. Wheels up.
Feels like a good time to come back over to Nostr
RIP my news feed
Gensler created a years worth of memes in a single day ๐
What's up nostr. Been a while. Anything interesting happening this week?
Every machine is a smoke machine if you operate it wrong enough.
I feel like the day I'll consider myself old is when I can no longer put my pants on while standing up.
Number go up

I wish tonight were different. I'm sorry it's not.
I'm doing well. And I hope you are too.
End of an era.
Onward, to new horizons.
What a life this year has been.
