#Wisp is the first Nostr app I would recommend to someone who has never heard of Nostr. It doesn't intimidate. :wisp_cute: It doesn't ask you to understand relays, keys, or Lightning before you can do anything. You open the app and you're already in. It's an app that on the surface welcomes beginners, while underneath satisfies even the most demanding user. :wisp_master: Because under that clean surface, everything is there: outbox/inbox relay model, built-in self-custodial Lightning wallet, a feed that actually fetches posts from the people you follow. Things that on other clients meant jumping between apps, or giving up. Wisp is Nostr the way it always should have been. :wisp_cowboy: It’s currently only available on Android, but it’ll soon be available on the web too. And you, why do you like Wisp? :wisp:

This is the beautiful photo in @J B-M profile, a round of applause for his good taste 👏

They say: turn your passion into a job and you’ll never work a day in your life. But you’ll be exhausted every single day.

I like how financial security brings a kind of inner peace. Look at how calm @jack is when he shares his thoughts. Enviable. 🙏🫂 View quoted note →

For me, selling my paintings for Bitcoin was not a simple choice, but a necessary one. Looking back, I don’t even know how I managed to do it, and even now I know it could all end the way it began — by returning to the obscurity of talented artists who are never truly appreciated. There are dark periods, like these past months, when I feel I’m creating good paintings that remain unsold, and brighter periods when I can barely finish one before it’s already gone. In these less fortunate moments, I’ve learned one thing: to keep painting and expressing my soul on canvas is always the best solution. My artistic life has the taste of tides. There are days when the water rises without asking permission, carrying with it eyes, interest, exchanges. And then there are days when the sea withdraws, leaving you alone with the canvas, the silence, and that subtle doubt: “am I really going anywhere?” In the end, the truth is this: I have no control over the waves — I only have control over capturing the sea while I paint. - Carlo Isolabella #art

Today I learnt something simple, almost trivial: that often it’s not about adding, but about taking away. Too many words overshadow the right ones. View quoted note →
