GM #nostr. Experimenting with nip17 this last couple of days, proper mixed bag results. Sending messages from Plume, not showing up in Amethyst or 0xChat. Messages received showing up in some clients, not others. Messages sent from Amethyst not showing up in some, showing up in others. Chatting with nostr:nprofile1qqs02f70juxwyc88gfsjzjlkzt50wkjemvvrtmt7gpfnymplvh3r9msprfmhxue69uhkumm0wfhx7er99ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5hsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9esh57npd4hjumn9wshsz9thwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjme0gnksrk and having similar results - some messages appear on some apps, not on others. The results are total inconsistency across apps. Yes, they're all sending DMs to the same relays. Yes, they should all be pulling DMs from those relays. So why is it such a mess?

It's npubs and nip05s only - could you try the nip05 again, it does return an error sometimes but it should automatically resolve - it gives the server a bit more time to respond so it doesn't always return the result before that error renders. I need to fix that so it shows it's still searching really.

Anyone else feeling charitable with their time? Need some folk to test the public profile searches on plume.website - also any bug reports would be dead handy.

I've finally added the public profile view to www.plume.website - now you can search someone and not even log in to see all the bits that they do on Nostr. This has been one of my primary aims since I began developing this site. If anyone is feeling charitable with their time, could you please check it out and let me know what you think?

😂

It's only because of the interactions from people here that I'm still finding people who were unfollowed during the recent follow list weirdness. Luckily I've added profile backups on Plume now so I can always rebroadcast an earlier follow list state. Anyone else that uses a plume nip05 can also backup their profile including pfp, cover image, lightning address, follow list, mute list and private favourite list - that's going to be updated to a different kind soon so they can be categorised.

Gm #nostr 🙏☕️💪 Thankyou to everyone who replied to the post about my bad back. It's still not right though there is improvement. I think. Hope you're all enjoying a nice peaceful Sunday morning 🌄

GM #nostr - Bit nervous about getting up and doing stuff today as my back went bad on me three times yesterday and I had to lay out, once at a mates, once at church and once at another mates. Bloody awkward, and embarrassing having to lay down on the floor and wait for ten or 15 minutes. Apparently chiropractors are my best bet. Anyone else think they're worth the money? I'm still wary of paying someone to turn me in to a piece of living origami.

Haha, I love it when the memories thing on FB shows up stuff like this. A bloody decade ago.

GM #nostr - an observation. I use the MET office rain radar to see where the rain is and to assess how long I might have to wait before taking a journey, or what I need to wear before leaving. It's bloody handy. A number of times I told my mates, no, wait, it'll pass in 30 minutes, or 'put your big coat on, this is going to get a lot worse'. It's useful because you can see in the observations (ignore the forecast, its shit) where the rain is and how it's moving. Now they use the tool and often check before doing something. They do this because they can see the value in using it. It improves their lives because at a glance they gain information which helps them assess their needs for the day. It was actually easier onboarding than getting people on Bitcoin or nostr. What does nostr do to improve their lives? What's the benefit? Right now I'm reminded of ebay in its early days. You went there because you could grab a bargain in the auction. Now you can buy just about anything there. Bitcoin offers security from theft and the chance of NGU. Not the best reason, NGU, but it works in people's heads. For #nostr to become sticky and essential in people's lives, what does it have to provide that can't be provided elsewhere? In my head it's got to be products. I honestly think the market places are the key to nostr's future. Just like Silk Road demonstrated, being able to buy stuff with #Bitcoin proved its worth and value. Same's gotta be true here.
