oh dear
Nostr is pretty much malware
And nostr users are obsessed with Lightning which is just plain malware, not even "pretty much"
And aren't you into the "cashew" malware or whatever? If you took this screenshot, probably means someone less malwarey than you should have been representing nostr here
This is not a delayed april fools?
Lol this was always a ridiculous thing. Especially in 2025.
Next is GitHub.
Hi calle 🤟😉🏴☠️ Classic move from the centralized world, but this is why we need decentralized communication more than ever. It’s time for solutions that align with Bitcoin’s values censorship-resistant, open, and free. Let’s keep building the infrastructure that supports true freedom.
Actually good thing it happened
nostr should be perfect for this but tooling leaves a lot to be desired
Agreed to both
Yes back to safety 😈
not really, because on Nostr notes are structured around users and not topics. it could be fixed, but then we also need some sort of moderation system to mitigate the attacks we know will emerge. fortunately i designed just such a system years ago. #opengroups + #peercuration
they can just use nostr.
WHO COULD HAVE PREDICTED THIS!?
this was predicted the moment they migrated to google
Woah! 😳
It was just a matter of time. Nostr can and will fix this!
That didn't take long. Isn't *a vibe coded solution on Nostr* the logical solution for the mailing list?
Am I saying this right fellow kids? Vibe yo!
What the fuck are you talking about, retard?
Did you think about what this meant before typing it or do you just pick words based on weighted dice rolls like an LLM?
I see Dmail coming. 🤯
Late april fools joke or legit?
Genuinely curious how any of that is malware.
The current state of #Bitcoin is they migrated to using Google...
You can't make this shit up
Nostr: based on the Jack Dorsey echo chamber malware model, uses JavaScript, has no data integrity assurance
Lightning: fake Bitcoin
Cashew: fake Bitcoin
Nope
@hodlbod would your groups stuff be part of a solution for this? how do you feel about bridging it to email? could prob collect a fee to help with ESP costs
What is needed?
TL;DR the bitcoin mailing list needs:
- dependable archives
- email and web forum
- moderation tools
- low maintenance burden
bitcoin-dev belongs on nostr. What is stopping us from making Delving Bitcoin but with a public relay for a database?
While Coinbase phishing emails are freely flowing into our inboxes 😹
When nostr?
Moving the mailing list to Google was such a shortsighted move
embarrassing to say the least
Why ?
This problem has been address by Google and resolved .
@JeffG could your private messaging stuff be helpful/part-of a solution to serve this use-case on nostr?
