Got some @Shopstr Markets updates to report on since it's been a minute!
Recently, I've primarily been focused on QoL improvements and general code cleanup related to performace and reliability before working on some new stuff. If you haven't noticed, here are a few of the bigger changes:
- As a merchant, you can now set a donation rate on sales that goes back to support the site's development and maintenance
- Merchants can now also set their payment preference to receive a Cashu token via DM (the usual) or directly to the Lightning address set on their Nostr profile, making manual claiming unnecessary
- Some extensions (primarily Nostr Connect) don't support NIP-44 encryption yet, so that's now checked before allowing you to use the site while signed-in
Also, don't forgort to update your Umbrel, Start9, and/or Tor instances if you're running one! Simply pulling the latest image source and rebuilding should do the trick.
Back to building. 🫡

"Every individual is continually exerting himself to find out the most advantageous employment for whatever capital he can command. It is his own advantage, indeed, and not that of society, which he has in view. But the study of his own advantage naturally, or rather necessarily, leads him to prefer that employment which is most advantageous to the society."
