🎄 Day 1: Day 1: What Is Nostr? 📝 I'm a newb learning about Nostr. I cant believe I stumbled across this space or the fact that such a space even exists. Its ticking a box, that has been unticked for best part of 20 yrs. You lot are legends. 📚 Learn: Nostr stands for 'Notes and Other Stuff Transmitted by Relays.' It's a simple, open protocol that enables global, decentralized, and censorship-resistant social networking. Unlike traditional platforms, you own your identity and data. Your account is a cryptographic keypair that works across any Nostr client or app. 🟣 App of the Day: Jumble

I love it here on Nostr, but real life interactions, face to face still win for me. That's not to be dismissive of the brilliant community, technology and possibilities here, just that immediate feedback (for me at least) is so rewarding. It's clearly not an on-off scenario. Nostr expands my brain more than a lot of real life conversations, real life throws so many more spanners in the works, nostr (social media in general) can often lose something in 'translation' but obviously allows us to communicate across the world. I'm not the sort to prescribe, so no 2hrs on 2hrs off malarkey, I'm gonna try and use nostr more than I currently am, but not to build a following, more to put my thoughts, opinions and personality out there as in real life. Online and real life are always blending and blurring and from my little corner of my world, I'm here for it. That's my pennies worth. What's yours?

Hey @YakiHonne are there any current issues with yakihonne wallets? I cant recieve any sats, neither in client or from external wallets.

As predicted, power cut no.1 of the season. Telegraph pole down. Time for a cuppa. View quoted note →

Hey @AQSTR @zapwork I've tried posting the most recent event. It never logged as complete and weirdly has reposted 4 times with a time stamp of 8 hrs ago. Not bothered about the sats, just wanted to flag encase there's an issue.

Getting ready for winter, that said it's really mild outside (and a wee bit blustery) and the proper cold won't land til the new year here. But it's nice to be prepared and if the winds keep up, power cuts are likely, then fire is our only source of heat.

Off to the tip today. Gotta love a good tip day.

Hey @AQSTR nice update 👌⚡️

It actually tasted like a cake. I win. View quoted note →

Hey @Fountain - new user here so please excuse the potential stupidity. I'm trying to listen to a live stream (I like my @NoGood ✌️ fix) but all it plays is the last podcast I was listening too. Been a few days now. Have I missed a setting toggle or something?

First time using @Fountain 👌👌👌 Great episode, especially the second half about non-devs messaging devs in regards to "cleaning the toilets on the spaceship" - I totally get that. I am sure I can bring something to a team/project just not the hard coding. I just need to step up - thanks for the confidence boost.
