I'm super excited to announce my latest #iPhone #application that I built. It's called #Echo for #Lemmy. It is an application for #Lemmy, which is a #decentralized social network for posting news, questions, and much more. It is very similar to #Reddit, but much more open and community-driven. Check it out today! #fediverse #activitypub #ios https://echo.rrainn.com/download/iphone

Why doesn't the #Apple #Notes app support #markdown?

So the latest #nostr #spam is a "dm-reporter" account. Do people really have nothing better to do than build these spam bots?

For #nostr #developers how do you decide which relay URL to use? I have a system that transmits notes to multiple relays, but for things like reposts (NIP-18) struggling to decide how to determine which relay URL to use for that. Obviously choosing an unreliable relay or a relay that eventually goes offline isn't a good practice. And it doesn't look like there is a way to define multiple relay URLs. What do you all do for this?

There is nothing #Apple can do/say to convince me to buy a new Apple Watch this year. I'll keep my existing watch with Blood Oxygen support. Crazy that Apple can't figure out the legal patent issues with it. #AppleEvent

@AirportStatusBot on #nostr now supports radar images for certain types of delays! This took a lot of engineering effort throughout the entire stack to get working. #Mastodon & #Bluesky bots had this feature for a while, but due to the decentralized nature of #nostr this was more difficult than just uploading an image to a central server.

What is the suggested method for adding an image to a #nostr post? Just add an image URL to the end of the post content? Is it necessary to add any extra tags for this? If there is a NIP that someone could point me to for this, that would be great too. #asknostr

Just pushed a major update to @AirportStatusBot vastly improving the logic for determining the reasons behind delays. This should lead to more detailed and accurate delay explanations. Additionally, many infrequent airport delay reasons have been added. There is still more work to be done, but this is meaningful progress towards increasing delay transparency for travelers.

@AirportStatusBot now supports direct messages! Message the bot and ask it questions and it will reply with some useful information. This feature is in alpha, and still in active development. But wanted to ship it to get feedback. On a more technical note, NIP-17 I couldn't get to work at all with it (only supports NIP-04). Asked in the #nostr telegram and didn't get any replies. If anyone wants to take a look and help debug, let me know. But I think #nostr is on track to fail miserably if developers can't even figure out how to use non-deprecated standards after spending days on it.

What is the best web client for #nostr? #asknostr

Does #NDK support NIP-17? Trying to send an encrypted direct message to a user, but not seeing any documentation for it. #nostr #asknostr

Well that is fun. #Cloudflare DNS seems to be extremely unstable right now. Ping to 1.1.1.1 fails for a bit then succeeds for a bit before failing again. Can ping other IPs just fine, and observed from 2 different internet connections.

Well that sucks... #Apple Developer app on Apple TV keeps crashing when trying to load Platform State of the Union stream. #WWDC #WWDC24

Saw a #Tesla #Cybertruck for the first time in person today. If you're wondering if it's as ugly in person as it is in the photos: it is.

In what universe is @jack living in?!?! #Twitter or #X is NOT freedom tech. Maybe it used to be. But completely shutting down the API lost any sense of “freedom” it had. Freedom is being able to use (or build) the client you want. Freedom is allowing you to view posts WITHOUT creating an account.
