#asknostr my #nostrudel client is getting stuck at "loading..." on the notifications screen, I'm using the default relays. My understanding is that this is often due to a slow relay, how can I figure out which one is slow and remove it?

The #TikTokBan is about to go into effect with broad bipartisan support. Once again, Americans have sold their liberties for the illusion of security. The government has no place telling you what kind of speech you can read or watch and where you can read or watch it. Sad day for America and free speech globally. I don't use TikTok, I think it's garbage, but I support your right to use it or any other app you choose. There is nothing more innately human than the desire to express yourself and connect with others. The TikTok ban is an attack on this right under the guise of "foreign influence", the exact same guise used by despots globally to ban media that is critical of them. We aren't fighting China by banning TikTok, we're becoming China.

Anybody else find the latest #SnoopDogg album #missionary a little disappointing? The hype was that #DrDre produced it, but this production doesn't sound at all like Dre's signature style, there's a real lack of negative space in any of the songs. Snoop is a legend, the lyrics are great, the production is of immaculate quality, but the vibe isn't what I associate w Dre.

#asknostr What is the closest nostr equivalent to Facebook groups? I want to be able to maintain a list of a group of people and send updates to them (post notes only they can see) and add/remove people as needed. Privacy isn't a major concern but would be nice if it had some. Thanks!
