If you’re new to #nostr and want to find your people quickly, go to the profile of someone you like and follow everyone they’re following. There’s no penalty for following a lot more people than follow you! #introductions

Anyone know why some zaps go to my @Wallet of Satoshi even though most go to my @primal wallet? I used to use WoS with @Damus but now mainly use Primal and can't find any wallet connected to my Damus app to disconnect. And is this going to be a common problem for people using multiple #nostr apps?

Drove for the first time in five years this week

Nothing like a prolonged interaction with tradfi & their customer service to remind you what we’re fighting for

What is the best list of relays for a #nostr beginner?

Might just be my internet connection but these days I get a lot of infinite loading screens on @primal. Sometimes when I go back and click again it loads properly but many times not. Feels very heavy

Self-customizable feed filters will be the killer feature for Nostr clients. E.g.: -Adjust recency -Set zap/like/reply thresholds -Limit to/exclude keywords -Filter by number of followers -Limit how many times one user can appear per # of posts etc. Basically Amazon shopping but for your feed.

Fame would be terrible for me, and for the world. Which is why I can’t get too upset about anything celebrities do. I would be worse.

It’s hard to be on social media (including #nostr) and not start caring about the numbers. Like I’d really like to get to 500 followers, for no reason other than then I can go for 1000, and so on.

Not sure I’m any good at it, but I do think a lot about the art of conversation. I think when there’s something you want to tell someone about, it’s important to dole it out in bite-size pieces, and only continue if they ask a follow-up question (the art being making those bites super tasty so they can’t help but ask more). No point delivering a sermon that mostly goes over their head and dissuades them from ever asking about it again. Funnily enough this was originally advice I read about talking about your experience after coming back from a missions trip, but it’s true for every subject I’d say.

Got asked tonight why #Bitcoin intentionally makes computation cost a lot of energy. Many answers were swirling in my head (just finished Softwar) but I tried to keep it simple and just explain that for the first time, we have scarcity in the digital realm - the energy cost brings scarcity/limitation into cyberspace, and some people think that has some pretty significant ramifications. Hopefully what I said was interesting enough to at least plant a seed for future thought/exploration, since there wasn’t scope for more amid the busy dinner table talk.

This is the crux. Until your brain stops freely interchanging “Bitcoin” and “crypto”, you cannot understand Bitcoin.

Anyone sticking around for halving parties in Bedford or London after Cheatcode? @Peter McCormack @Danny Knowles

I will never stop complaining about American showers and toilets. I mean what’s so hard about a digital temperature control on the shower and a little nozzle that sprays your ass crack in the toilet? And don’t get me started on shower curtains and putting the toilet in the same room. Hopeless.

First time doing daylight savings time in years

Thoughts?
