When the kids don't get it, it's not that they don't get it, it's that you (me) are shit at explaining it. Get it.

Hey @REDKAZ⚡️| YakiHonne / @YakiHonne - it's happened again, and I've not touched anything (honestly dad it wasn't me 🤣). The only relay still in my list is fountain.fm. I'll reinstate the others and ditch fountain, as I guess it's bumping the others somehow. Happy to assist if I can help this be solved. View quoted note →

How I ended up on nostr and started to claw back my freedom View quoted note →

Here's my first ever published article. I am no writer (or am I?). I'm putting myself out there to be criticised, to improve what I know, to improve how I write, how I can communicate more effectively. Let me know your thoughts, I'm here to learn. #asknostr #nostr #freedom #de-google #blogging #privacy #pleb #plebchain View article →

🎄 Day 4: Day 4: NIPs - Nostr Implementation Possibilities 📝 Ah NIPs, that's what they are. Also, big up @yakihonne - a great nostr client 📚 Learn: NIPs (Nostr Implementation Possibilities) are proposals that extend the protocol's capabilities. From basic text notes (NIP-01) to Lightning zaps (NIP-57) and encrypted messages (NIP-04), NIPs document how features work. Anyone can propose a NIP, and the community decides what gets adopted. This open process drives innovation. 🟣 App of the Day: yakihonne.com

I am so so close to a super fresh start in life. How it will look and what it will involve I havnt a clue, but the freshness is so nice. I am not a nieve "grass is always greener" kinda guy, but I am basking in my freedom for this short period of time while a dream up my options. If anyone has any advice (or actual job opportunities) that involve getting in to tech/privacy, chuck it at me. I'm all ears. #asknostr ##nostr #plebchain #nostrdevs #hedgehog

Hey @npub1v5uf...n0v5 - new user here so please excuse the potential stupidity. I'm trying to listen to a live stream (I like my @npub12hcy...rdp4 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?
