I was told by a few that I would never leave Twitter for an extended period of time, but I remind those in doubt that I along with many others left Facebook and have never looked back. Permanence is a funny thing online. Those who posted on email lists and bulletin boards in the past will remind those that while the services might exist in some form, the next generation doesn’t care about the communities we’ve built. They select the platforms that best suits their needs. I’m on nostr more now, #[0]​ and Jay Graber being a bit stingy with the invites to watch the blue sky 😔

Hopefully there will be less people obsessed with a particular 92 year old on here. Shame what Twitter has become.

Incredible how far the iPad has come. Apple needs to step up and throw Xcode on there for the pro models. View quoted note →

I was worried this day would come since Ordinals started, but here we are. My gut ultimately tells me that things will be fine considering that people willingly pay hundreds of dollars in gas fees on Ethereum.

Happy Birthday Hal! Hal contributed so much in cryptography outside of Bitcoin. I recommend anyone who hasn’t done so to read ‘Bitcoin and me (Hal Finney)’ to see how lucid he was even as he battled with ALS

My favorite bitcoin related artwork by @cryptograffiti​. Glad to own one of these.

Twitter truly is becoming an unusable platform and it’s heartbreaking to see as someone who was around when the platform was one large feed of people saying hello. Spaces are full of conspiracy theories, propagandists with some wacky ideas across the board. I miss clubhouse when it was invite only. Nostr is hope better tools continue to improve.
