I am so curated when I am in Nostr.
I don't know why; there is something special here.
The community is so intelligent and wise.
I don't think there is a replacement for Nostr.

I am so sad to say that we found a new leaking part from a non-fixed part of my roof with the heavy rains yesterday. I feel bad for asking for help continuously here, but it should be fixed soon, and I am helpless at the moment. With this situation it got disrupted for my #Nostr and #Bitcoin adoption and spreading work, as we have to remove water when it rains while being there. Your every small zap is very precious for me at the moment. Also your repost. If you think I deserve it, please help me with a zap to help me proceed with my work on Nostr. Thank you everyone!

I am so happy when I see plebs like this. We are safe with the existing #Nostr users. We should impress outside people more with thinking creatively. That's what my future plan with my @Nostr Recap etc.
Inspired by @rabble.
View quoted note β
Some days ago my Google Pixel 5 phone started restarting continuously. But the phone is not starting after the logo screen. Currently using an iPhone 7 that can't install @primal or @Damus. I am worried that I can't use Nostr with it and I can't get @Pokey notifications. But I will buy a phone with saving money soon. Because I need to get in touch with Nostr as before. Now I am just available there when I am with my PC.

Went to the beach with my brother @Samalka Hansana to calm my mind some days ago. Got a sea bath also. Great memory!


Started the day with a terrible toothache. But I have a social responsibility. So @Nostr Recap will be on time for you! Let's spread Nostr!
Stack Sats!
Zap for the plebs!
Save in #Bitcoin!
That's it!
NOSTR is the best social protocol. There is no alternative for it. I love it a lot, and I am more active there than on other social media.
Stack Sats!

#9 π οΈ Tools, Updates and Releases
==================================
1. Coracle - 0.6.18
Coracle is a web-based Nostr client that explores what makes Nostr unique, offering advanced relay selection, web-of-trust moderation, privacy protection, and content recommendations. In this version, Coracle improves UX with a tooltip on the Bunker login QR code, fixes initial note creation bugs, improves NIP-05 validation, and allows viewing of raw profile JSON. These updates refine the experience for privacy-conscious users who value fine-grained control over their Nostr interactions.
Developed by: @hodlbod, Lucas Klasa
Source:
2. Yana - v0.17.0
Yana (Yet Another Nostr Application) is a multi-platform, community-driven Nostr client designed for better performance on older devices and built around a true FOSS spirit. In this version, Yana introduces a new Wallet app flavor, Blossom media server management, and a modern video player with autoplay settings. It also brings a new drawer design, faster QR scanner performance, and improved handling of pending/failed payments. These updates make Yana more media-friendly, wallet-aware, and smooth across devices, while staying lightweight and open for contributors.
Developed by: filipegirassol, @saunter, @fmar
Source:
3. Flotilla - 1.2.0
Flotilla is a Discord-like Nostr client built around the concept of βrelays as groups,β making decentralized group chat intuitive and structured. In v1.2.0, Flotilla adds push notifications on all platforms, a βmark all as readβ feature for desktop, and a redesigned space dashboard for better navigation. It also fixes issues with thread comment sorting, link display, and profile protection, while improving notifier authentication by switching from Bunker URLs to relay claims. These updates enhance usability and real-time communication in group-centric Nostr spaces.
Developed by: @hodlbod
Source:
4. Runstr - v0.5.2
Runstr is a fitness tracking app built on Nostr, blending workouts with social features and decentralized identity. In this version, Runstr adds major upgrades for cyclists: real-time 1-second update frequency, intelligent stationary detection, and smoothed speed tracking for more accurate feedback. The League system now supports activity-specific leaderboards, and a new auto-posting feature lets users automatically share workouts as kind 1301 events, with full user control. This update refines the experience for runners, cyclists, and walkers alike in the open Nostr fitness world.
Developed by: @TheWildHustle
Source:
5. Pokey - v0.2.4-beta
Pokey is a Nostr notification tool that displays live alerts for your events and allows other apps to receive and interact with them, bringing real-time awareness to the Nostr ecosystem. In this release, Pokey introduces a new Mute List view, giving users better control over which profiles trigger notifications. This update enhances user control and personalization, making Pokey even more effective as a decentralized notification hub. This is the latest release, and there was the release of v0.2.3-beta also last week.

#10 π Developer Tools, Updates and Releases
===========================================
1. Dart Nostr Development Kit (NDK) - v0.4.1
NDK (Nostr Development Kit) is a Dart library that streamlines the development of Nostr apps by providing robust tools for relay communication and protocol handling. In this release, NDK adds support for new NIP-51 event kinds, introduces a timeout parameter for Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC), and includes missing delete functions. It also improves connection logic by preventing JIT engines from overconnecting to low-value relays and fixing relay reconnection issues. These updates enhance reliability, control, and developer flexibility when building Nostr apps in Dart.

Iβm committed to supporting Nostr, and I split a part of the zaps I receive for this note with the plebs mentioned in this recap for all their great effort.

Hello, I am so glad to say that we started to fix another part of my house roof with the help of this generous community. In the video you could see how dangerous it was too.
@Tomek β‘ K, @npub1suwx...rlxf, and @npub1zqca...uza5, your contribution to my @Geyser project is going to this part. I am doing this part because of you, and I really appreciate your help.
I just have less than 3 months to repair other parts, as those parts are also too dangerous like this. I hope you all will help me to reach my target by at least reposting this note. I have to find a lot more. My Geyser project is below if you are interested in contributing to help my #Nostr and #Bitcoin spreading effort be comfortable under a safe shelter.
@rabble, @Jurjen de Vries, @Tomek β‘ K, @npub1suwx...rlxf, @YaΓ«l, @jack, @ODELL, @Gigi, @Derek Ross, @npub1zqca...uza5 and #NostrCommunity.

I am so glad that I have found around 30% for fix my roof and already fixed the first part of my roof with the help of #Nostr and @Geyser communities. The proof of work for the fixed part is below.
I just have less than 3 months to repair other parts. So I have to find around 70% of the amount. Hope everyone in this generous community will help me in this hard time at least with a repost. Thank you for your help.

Thank you @Tomek β‘ K, @npub1suwx...rlxf and @npub1zqca...uza5 for your donations to my Geyser project! That was a world to me at the moment. Really appreciate it. I am getting to fix my roof step by step. I am sure I will do it in the near future, before 3 months before collapsing my other roof parts. Thank you, everyone!

Thank you @Arnold Hubach & @npub1suwx...rlxf from @blockhunters for donating this game for me. Playing this game was a dream of mine. I got this a couple of days ago. I am sorry for this late video as I am with a hard situation with my house roof. I will start my contribution to translating this into the Sinhala language soon. Thank you again!
PS: If anyone in this community needs to help me to make this contribution soon, Ireally appreciate the donations to my Geyser project as I need to fix my roof within 3 months.

I am fundraising for repairing my roof while doing nice things for the #Nostr and #bitcoin communities.
I have done a small part of fixing with some funding from the Geyser and Nostr communities. But according to the fixers, other parts of the roof won't last more than 3 months more. My funds are finished now. I hope this community will help me to reach my goal and live happily with my family while spreading Nostr and Bitcoin. Thank you, everyone!
Received sats : 607,982 sats
Goal : 1,880,743 sats
We should attract more community on Nostr. For that, we should do something outside of Nostr. Yes, it must. I started a new step. One post per day on Twitter for now.
