Long time Bitcoiner, new to Nostr!
Does anyone know why some of my #nostr direct messages don't show up in some apps but they show up in others? I've got lots of relays, and I've also paid for a few including nostr.wine, but I guess I'm missing something. Just as an example, one of my direct messages shows up in Amethyst on mobile, but not on any of the desktop apps that I've tried. #asknostr Thanks
How does one join a Nostr paid relay? I've found a list of them, but I can't find any good information on how to join/pay the fee. Thanks #asknostr
The only way to beat the statists is to become richer than them using #bitcoin. It's invaluable that we can opt out using #nostr, and encryption in general. But we must become wealthier than them to truly win in the long run. We must become the new elite, and use our wealth to do good in the world.
Just setup a #lightning node, a bit cheating because I did it on Voltage. But I thought it'd be a gentler introduction because there's so much to learn about lightning nodes compared to regular #bitcoin. In fact now that I've actually been using Lightning it makes me realise that if you want non-custodial and the ability to receive payments, it's way harder than on chain with learning about channels and adding liquidity, and all the server requirements. But still I got there in the end, and now I've got the lightning node and BTC Pay Server on Voltage, the getalby extension, phoenix wallet on mobile, and hopefully now the ability to receive #zaps as well as send on both desktop and mobile, and a nostr address, LN URL and hopefully everything I need to get started.
I'm trying to link a lightning wallet to Nostr to do zaps. Is Alby the best way of doing that? And if I need an Alby account, does anyone have an invite code? It seems you need one. Or is there a better option altogether. I don't currently have a lightning node but that's my next step. Thanks! #asknostr
