Hello fellow Nostr Plebs, I am trying to fix a small part of my roof with the funding in my Geyser project I have for now, as we could get rid of the rain a bit with it. I am so happy that I was able to start my first step to fix it. I am doing this because your help I got luckily. This is the most generous community I have ever seen. But still the risk persists, as every wood part of my roof has been attacked by termites, and with the oldness it has in its last lifetime of the roof, as my home is more than 100 years old. So I have a very short time to fully repair my roof. The walls are also bad too. But I just need to fix the roof for now, as that is the most dangerous thing as we are under it. That's the amount I mentioned in my Geyser project. Thank you all the plebs with golden hearts who contributed with Value 4 Value (V4V) and if you like to give me a push-up for me to proceed with my Nostr and Bitcoin spreading work, please consider helping me with my Geyser project. This is #ProofofWork that what happened to your donations. I will update you with the next steps. @Jurjen de Vries, @rabble, @paul keating, @jack, @ODELL, @Yaรซl and all the plebs #proofofwork

This update transforms Yumyume into a more social and interactive space for bookmark discovery.

Dear Nostr Recap fans! There is a risk of being a bit late to publish this week's Nostr Recap, as last night another part of my roof collapsed when it rained. It still rains heavily everyday. So we have to remove water when it rains. But I will do my best to publish the #nostrrecap on time for you! @Jurjen de Vries, @rabble, @npub1l2gv...r0gm, @Kayne, @Yaรซl, @Derek Ross, @paul keating, and all the #nostrcommunity. We are at big risk, as my working PC is also under this roof. If you like to give me a push-up to make this world better with #Nostr and #Bitcoin, please consider contributing to my Geyser project. Even your repost is a world to me at this time, as I have no much time to fix my roof. Thank you everyone!

Nostr GitHub Integration Extension - New Developer tool Nostr GitHub Integration Extension is a browser extension that lets developers share GitHub repositories, code snippets, and permalinks directly to Nostr relays. It streamlines repo announcements and boosts collaboration by bridging GitHub activity with the Nostr network. Developed by: @Biz Source: 2. Zap Watcher - New Developer tool ZapWatcher is an ESP32-based device that connects to Nostr relays and triggers a physical alert (like an LED or buzzer) whenever your npub receives a zap, bringing real-time Nostr interactions into the physical world. Developed by: @Oren โ˜‚๏ธ Source: 3. Nostr PHP - 1.9.0 Nostr PHP is a PHP helper library for interacting with the Nostr protocol. This release introduces support for NIP-13, enabling Proof-of-Work for event publishing, and NIP-65, which allows relay list metadata events. It also adds a new PersistentConnection class with an accompanying code example, enhancing long-term connection handling for developers. This was the major release and there were releases 1.9.1 and 1.9.2 also last week. Developed by: @Sebastix, @Djuri Source: ====================================== #11 ๐ŸŒ Relay Updates and Releases ====================================== 1. Ngit Relay - New Relay/Developer tool Ngit-relay is a self-hostable, permissioned Git relay built on the Nostr protocol. It enables decentralized Git repository hosting and collaboration over Nostr, integrating relay, Git, and Blossom service layers into one developer-focused solution. This can be considered as a developer tool for Git over Nostr too. Developed by: @DanConwayDev Source: 2. Grain - v0.4.0 Grain is a Nostr relay designed for operators seeking fine-grained control over relay behavior. This release introduces structured logging with customizable formats and component-level controls, an advanced caching system for whitelist and blacklist pubkeys with background refresh, and smarter connection management featuring memory monitoring and enhanced WebSocket handling. Query performance is boosted through optimized MongoDB operations and configurable request limits. Additional improvements include enhanced event validation, centralized configuration management, and critical bug fixes that increase stability and reliability.
