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.

Handy - I know I tested it before but the block button is definitely working in Plume. 🥳
Updates made to the UI on Plume this morning - the various feeds now appear at the top of the feed container instead of in the side bar - on desktop they're labelled, on mobile they're just the symbols, which accounts for the reduced screen width. There's still a fix needed for switching from profile view back to whatever window you're on, but that'll be done later. The side bar menu needs a minor reorg, again, a simple task that'll be done later. Then updating the notifications, so that they appear in an overlay instead of replacing the feed view. I can probably improve the loading speed for notifications as well. Also considering adding auto updates to show notifications as they arrive. At the moment you have to manually check.
Plenty to keep me occupied.


Gm #nostr ☕️ 🌅 🥳
Happy Wednesday 😊
I'm gonna try and do something productive today. Not sure what, yet, but gonna try.
Hope y'all are enjoying yourselves.
Now let's see if it works from the mobile. Should work.


Hopefully, this screenshot showing the highlighted media upload button on plume.website is going to be the first media I upload to nostr via Plume. Assuming it works, this is going to make it my primary client at last. Possibly.


Amber, the remote signer app, now allows you to create new keys witha. 12 word seed phrase for backing up. It's a great feature. I wonderbif that could be incorporated in to the create account flow on Plume.website rather than it creating a set of keys locally which has to then be saved elsewhere. That's a pain point that we could do without.
GM #nostr - back to the fiat mines this morning, after a hearty breakfast. A break away did me good. Hope you're all having a good Tuesday 💜🙏
Quite happy that that worked as quickly as it did. I expected to have to spend hours, possibly even days making it work. This AI is getting used to working with me, I think. Perhaps that project level memory really is functional. Or maybe opus 4.5 really is that good.

GM #nostr - Madness weekender is over, now for the long drive home. I've loved being away, even if my back has made life difficult. Hope you're all having a great Monday morning 🌄 ❤️ ☕️
Not a bad day - follow packs, last state caching and fixed private favourite lists.
And I've been to the beach, been for a meal, been for a couple of live music events.
Bloody great weekend.

These things plus public profile search, so you won't even have to log in to be able to search a user and see an overview of everything that they do.
