thank you to the @utxo the webmaster 🧑‍💻@wisp and possibly even the man himself FJ for giving auth.nostr1.com more runway for nip17 to take flight!! 🎉 View quoted note →

MAJOR ANNOUNCE: auth.nostr1.com just received a generous donation, to continue the service. Lets roll. DMs, yeah, it ain't no thing. We got this. nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqlxr9zsgmke2lhuln0nhhml5eq6gnluhjuscyltz3f2z7v4zglqwqyf8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yv339e3k7mf0qydhwumn8ghj7argv4nx7un9wd6zumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcqyp4e2j8c8fyqq7e4tt9https://v.nostr.build/kD4PvUeU6sXlDReT.mp49jn9s3j0mk75ej4u4tccwwss0zlgprsa7cxw3uhr

if you're a client dev, TURN UP if you're a fan of a client dev, tag them and TURN UP the VOLUME.

you are gonna love this video.. ♥️ hah!

I will make a short preso for client devs here shortly.. About nip17, relays and AUTH. I really want DMs to work on nostr, and from time to time, I spend some focus here. What a slog this has been eh? I feel like not having DMs working is killing nostr. We are here to connect, and we can't fully connect. Let's turn things around, we do not need to wait for whitenoise, these same concepts apply to whitenoise as well (I read the spec last night).

There is so much to do on the relay side of things on nostr. Unfortunately we have been gasslit into "doesn't matter just make things dumb" for sooooo long. But now there are signs of life. I admit though, at this stage it is still a bit overwhelming to me, the list of tasks I see are needed to move forward. One of these is fully utilizing NIP66. Clients have been adopting it, and I think to close the loop we have what we need in the spec, but we need more publishers and info in the tags.. Not sure what to do to gather more attention to this but leaving it all up to @sandwich and I is pretty overwhelming sometimes.. Calling all client devs (you could publish monitors)! Halp. Here is an example of finding NIP17 compatible relays for users to choose from. Obviously they will also need to determine if they have access or gain access via membership in most cases. But it's so close. nak req --kind 30166 --tag N=17 --tag R=auth --limit 1000 wss://relaypag.es wss://monitorlizard.nostr1.com |jq '.tags[] |select(.[0] == "d").[1]' |sort --unique

Just because you aren't in the published by bigBrother list of 38 pubkeys that were confirmed actual accounts with nsecs exposed doesn't mean yours isn't compromised. Should we do a huge nostr MIX-UP party soon?! We could all delete our old key, and start a new. Let's shake things up eh? Start up those vanity generators. Post your next key and OTS it.

MAJOR ANNOUNCE: To prepare for auth.nostr1.com deprication I have launched a brand new relay called nipless.nostr1.com. This is the same functionality as auth, except it requires membership for 1021 sats. The thing is, providing free services is not good for nostr. If something is FREE, then YOU are the yield. The yield in this case, was TESTING, 2 years of it. This tech is SOLID af now. I can tell that in the year of auth.nostr1.com being free to anyone, it has been capitalized on by almost everyone as one of the only relays in the ecosystem to properly support NIP17. Even as far as amethyst listing it as a "free" relay, well, in order to correct this I will be depricating it in ONE week. So, give the new relay a try, you can join by going to https://nipless.nostr1.com I also am attempting to educate you as to how NIP17 with an authenticated relay works, by providing this video explaining best I can. Thank you for all the testing, this thing is battle hardened now and that was thanks to you. I apologize for letting it be free to use for so long and I never intended to hurt the nostr ecosystem by doing so. Free relays should be treated with suspicion at best, especially in the case of DMs. PV, and enjoy your weekend #nostr

In preparation for launch of a new relay I'm working on, I realized the membership flow for nostr1.com relays was broken. It wasn't allowing un-logged-in users to easily join. Sorrray about that! Was never the intention. Now the paste pubkey, make payment is working and much better. Fixed 🌊🔀✅

@GrapheneOS any juicy pixel10a alpha? I see some commits coming in.. 👀😁🎉

happy friday nostr, things are really poppin' round here 🎉🐯

RelayTools android. If you're an up and coming relayoor, you should def add it to your toolbox. It connects to any ws:// or wss:// obtainium source https://apks.relay.tools/apks and on zapstore, i signed it w my nsec have fun and feel free to ask questions I will not bite your head off 🐯 #tigerblood

see this? I am browsing a single local relay, but when I reply to a 'heavy' thread, *this is what I want to see. The status of every single publish, and the breakdown of the nostr FX in high fidelity. #outbox
