## Devs Alert! Let's try this experiment: I'm going to try to boost productivity of the development of [SatShoot](https://satshoot.com) this way: 1. Will create Tickets in SatShoot pointing to [GitHub issues](https://github.com/Pleb5/satshoot/issues) 2. Share it as kind1 for everyone to see 3. Waiting for aspiring open-source devs to bid on these issues in SatShoot Why not just post bounties you may ask? I don't believe bounties are a good way to incentivize development. You start to work on sth and _hope_ to win the bounty. If you don't win you don't make money, your time is mostly wasted. Only one person or team can win because that's easier to handle for the poster of the bounty. So you don't bother, it's too much risk. You need the precommitment from the job poster but he needs competition to hire the best dev available. This is why contract negotiation works better than bounties. However, you can get the competitive nature of bounties with SatShoot: Everyone interested will bid on the Ticket. You can negotiate with the potential Client in DM and even edit things until you come to agreement BUT ANYONE CAN BID on Tickets as long as they are NOT taken. Competition and contract negotiation. A Ticket in SatShoot is essentially a Request For Quote and an Offer is a Bid or a Quote to solve that problem. I think this model captures best what nostr is about: Open competition in an Unstoppable market fueled by freedom tech. What do you guys think? Let me know and I'll be excited to run this experiment! #satshoot #grownostr

Building businesses on information asymmetry as the core of the business model will get less and less feasible by the day. Information wants to be free. In the information age your business cannot be built like before: "Middle-man as a service" Do better. Build better. I believe that betting on business models with long time-preference incentives will work out better eventually: - Open source therefore verifiable, remixable, viral. More eyes on it, the better. - Brand ~ Reputation is still big and here to stay. Think about Your reputation as a business or entrepreneur, but also the reputation of users - status matters and you better make use of this. - Centralized but optional ancillary services. This is NOT freemium. This is standards-based(eg DVM) free market of extra features that some users might find useful but they can choose any service they like. No vendor lock-in Anything I missed? Drop your thoughts!

Now that nostr is maturing and gaining more users, I am excited about all the new stuff that's being built! What do you guys find interesting from latest developments? Among my personal favorites are all those different #wot ideas and solutions. Balancing protection against spam and scam with user experience and discovery seems like a lucrative opportunity for a gamut of services we haven’t seen on the legacy web so far. Free market is winning. Momentum keeps growing. LFG!

Legacy web has already kneeled down before bots and AI. Their noise is unbearable. Their apps are unusable. We can do better. On nostr you customize your own experience. It's Your choice which app you use. It's Your choice what you see. It's Your choice who you trust. It's Your choice who you are. Enjoy freedom, responsibly. #wot #nostr

Now that Telegram is at last seen for what it really is we can move on to nostr-based solutions. The same maxim applies: Look at incentives, expect the outcome. The state will print money because anyone would if they could. Fiat companies will sell you out because you don't matter as much as their business and safety. Also, bitcoin might be inevitable but the freedom economy built on the uncensored internet _was_ not. Until nostr came along.

IF YOU WANT TO OPERATE A BUSINESS RESPECTFUL OF USERS PRIVACY THEN DON'T TAKE CUSTODY OF THEIR DATA. HOW MANY COMPANIES CAN DO THAT WITHOUT NOSTR?

The EU started withdrawal of funding from FOSS projects. Not at all surprising.

Monetization that is enabled by direct zaps and other bitcoin, lightning and ecash enabled technologies will increasingly be essential for a brighter FOSS future. Many thought that governments stealing people's money can be justified with redistribution of a miniscule portion of the loot. We see they have been wrong all along. Nostr will be the flagship of the freedom economy where people and projects build the unstoppable future: Nostr speech cannot be stopped. Nostr connections cannot be stopped. Nostr payments cannot be stopped. Nostr services cannot be stopped. People of nostr cannot be stopped. Welcome to the dream of the cypherpunks realized. Stay humble, stack zaps @ODELL

Been doing stress tests on [SatShoot](https://satshoot.com) lately and on mobile there have been challenges with websocket connections. If the app gets in the background because e.g. device is locked then on Android all connections are dropped after just minutes and #ndk cannot recover from that unless page is reloaded or app is restarted. In my app this is pretty bad because live updates are crucial for freelancers and their clients. Could only solve this with nasty hacks and I am looking for elegant solutions. I also tested some other clients with adb how they perform under these conditions. Most had the same issues. Only #nostrudel from @hzrd149 and #coracle from @hodlbod and #primal (on web) from @miljan were able to recover relay connections from under severe resource constraints it seems. What's your secret sauce guys? :) #asknostr

Don't trust, verify @ODELL

Can someone tell me why @ODELL has his deleted twitter handle in the latest RHR show notes instead of his npub? Maybe in others too I haven’t checked. Get that sorted out guys. cc @Marty Bent

They have a16z. We have f7z. We are on the winning team. GN

Listening to the conversation of @ODELL and @PABLOF7z at #nostriga Bangers! Nostr does not need a marketing department because real people using it will drive adoption. Until we don't even realize we are using nostr. We will just login with the same identity in every app and that's gonna be normal. And we will talk about the old days when things were quite rough around the edges and many of us still used legacy "unsigned and unrelayed" web apps.

I announced SatShoot with #ngit as a nip34 repo and pushed the code to Gitworkshop.dev . The feeling of freedom from github is indescribable. Thanks to @DanConwayDev for making this possible. I encourage every nostr dev to do the same!
