I've decided I'm going to make my own nostr direct messaging app using my own spec. Because everyone else is. It doesn't matter if we can talk to eachother or not, because that's clearly not happening as it is...

Another nostr messaging spec 😂 View quoted note →

Apparently I completed this at 0256 this morning. I don't remember waking up, much less playing word5. So I basically done this in my sleep. That's pretty impressive, but leaves me without a game to play this morning... View quoted note →

Why haven't more nostr clients implemented this? Especially the bigger ones with tens of users per day? Come on guys and gals. Let's support nostr native business. View quoted note →

Gm nostr :wechat_Coffee: My friend is out of hospital, for now. He's still ill, still needs to recover, so I'm going to go and help out. Just as well this didn't happen in mid summer, or I'd be proper torn between loyalty to my friends and love of the sun and the beach 😂 Hope you're all having a great Saturday, whether it's restful or busy 🙏

Need to do some house keeping this weekend, online and on the boat. To that end, I really should crash now, but I'm feeling far too wired. Perhaps you could all suggest the most boring account on here which might just send me to sleep after a few lines of text?

Don't like that rendering much. It got it spot on with the checkers/draughts game, then made this look...well. Suboptimal. Still, the mechanics works 🥳 View quoted note →

Check it out, it works! Live chess matches, on nostr. Recieve notifications when being challenged, accept the challenge and start the game. Other people can view the live game by clicking the link, they don't even have to log in to Plume, they can just watch it play out. Some testing to do, but this should work. Should be able to switch devices mid game too, assuming the relays return all the events :) View quoted note →

Typical, made a thing, broke a thing, now fixing it. And adding bit's I'd not considered the first time. Which will probably break something else. But who cares, right? It's fun 🥳

Next move is broadcasting victory notes, containing finished board, number of moves and link to rewatch game move by move. Then, add option for live viewing, even if user isn't logged in. Once that's done, I'll look at adding other simple classics. View quoted note →

Checkers/Draughts now plays online on Plume, all tested and working. Now to figure out how to remove it from the main server and serve it up from Blossom instead.

GM #nostr - woke up to the sound of water slapping the hull today and the rain hammering on the cabin roof, just above me. Bloody lovely. Of course, I've got to go out there, at some point. But for now...it's all good. Hope you're all well, friends.

I've had enough of town today, I'm heading home to the boat for some peace and quiet. There's plenty of interesting discussion and perspectives to dig through in that earlier thread, so that'll keep my mind busy while the AI works this eve.

Which app/site has the best onboarding/log in flow across the network? I'd prefer to hear the answer from users, tbf. Devs probably all think theirs is best. I'd like to know what people's actual experiences are.

Gonna carry on adding games to the site later, but that top bar is starting to look a little full. May have to add option to choose which other things are shown beyond notes amd replies. The real magic still lies in the profile view, anyway, showing the other stuff that an npub publishes to nostr.
