I seem to be applying for a job at a software company. This was not on my 2025 bingo card.

Bit of a wet n foggy one today. Fresh.

Whoa! My non-tech brain read and understood this. Very well writen 👏 I think most know Google and Apple are the monopoly, but the tight grip via baked in architecture is shocking. Thank you for spelling this out. View quoted note →

I LOVE NOSTR. View quoted note →

I have one big "thing" on my plate atm (not for too much longer), but when that fades from my focus my head feels lovely and empty. I can't wait for it to completely be done with. For decades I have lived and worked at 100mph. I now I have this nice void of time, energy and attention that I'm looking to fill, but in a much more considered way. I'm really looking for a project to dive in to, from a complete standing start, probably tech based - maybe even a nostr relay or even a Bitcoin node or set up a Bitaxe. Maybe some coding or I fancy playing with a raspberry pi. Alternatively, me and the young'n might set up a website/shop. The background logic is that I don't want to slope back in to the fiat grind and lose this opportunity, plus I want to young'n to see an alternative life, not the expected rat route. Not sure why I'm putting this down here. Probably to cast it in "stone" or the fact its out my head helps me inch forward. There you go. #plebchain #asknostr #nostr #nostrdevs #freedom

Yo #nostr / #nostrdevs - I keep seeing "event loading" and the circle of death. Is this a realt issue? Is it an event "size"? Is it a stocking point I just have to put up with or can I tweak something to improve my feed? Cheers in advance.

A great article by YakiHonne focusing on Online Freedom (some practical red flags to keep an eye out for). I'm pretty new to #nostr but felt for some time I needed more freedom, I even recently published my first ever article on my journey towards great personal freedom to document some basic steps I've taken so far. I'm so glad this space and the technology exists 🙏 💜 View article → View quoted note →

Morning @YakiHonne - the Back button when inside a thread - any chance this can just go back one step per click? Back button (in client) goes back to the top of the thread. Back button (on phone, Android) goes all the way back to main feed. I'm just nit-picking, best client out there 👌
