Flotilla 1.7.3 (and 1.7.4) is out — this one is mostly quality of life improvements (with the addition of polls). The big change protocol-wise is the addition of kind-9 wrapping of non-chat content types per a discussion with @Vitor Pamplona and @verbiricha. This prevents missing context when sending non-chat messages to NIP 29 rooms, but also allows for adding stuff like polls etc to chat. You can read the NIPs PR here:

Archon is incredible. It has 10x'd my output, which means I can now one shot 100k LOC instead of only 10k LOC before throwing it away

I miss writing code

What does this mean?

Hackernews doesn't like it when I tell them nostr is decentralized and bluesky is not

Is there an existing implementation of NIP 29 roles or is it just dead spec? @fiatjaf @verbiricha
