And now we just have to stop them from bringing up this topic every 6 months to test the waters each time, so they can aim for the right moment when they can actually push it through. Easy, right? View quoted note →

An old Islamic online financial organization in Germany that advises Muslims on halal investments has just published a rating paper for various investments, labeling them as Halal (green), Haram (red), and in between (check/uncertain, orange). Alongside many traditional investments, they have also listed "crypto-assets (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.)" with an orange rating and justified it with "volatility, no uniform Fiqh consensus". The fact that they lumped Bitcoin together with shitcoins into one category already shows that they have no idea what they're talking about. And listing "volatility," which is present in every fiat currency (mostly downwards due to inflation), and the lack of "Fiqh consensus", which simply stems from the fact that many scholars who judge it have no knowledge of the underlying technology or economic facts, only confirms this impression. I could say "I'm tired of this shit" now, but I'll just say "Everyone buys Bitcoin (and financial freedom) at the price they deserve". And: Thank your uneducated Faqih, who in 2025 is still clueless about Bitcoin, later.

This ... View quoted note → and Yousif's note View quoted note → ... got me thinking. What if every Nostr user (okay, at least the power users) were to build their own relay and client? The relays would have an interface to the open internet, running on everybody's own Umbrel or Start9 home server, and clients would only run on localhost, in the browser. No matter if it's desktop or browser. No app stores, not even ZapStore (sorry), just fully sovereign. With Vibe-Coding, this would be feasible. A Nostr user would only need to invest a few months and would have their own client tailored to their preferences, and could fix it for half a lifetime if he wants to. The simpler vibe-coding becomes, the sooner this will be possible for many. Just a bit of basic technical understanding is needed, and a few more years until coding assistants are a bit more mature. That would be truly next-level. Of course, it would require good online documentation and knowledge sharing to help people overcome many obstacles from the start. But I find the idea appealing. I know, it's still a bit too early now; some of us still need to gain experience and resolve issues; there's no Nostr client without problems and we're getting used to it. However, when a certain level of maturity is reached (Jumble and Yakihonne are already quite advanced), we could start building a support database and community. I don't know, maybe in 2-3 years? And in 5 years, we'll all be sitting in front of our own rigs, posting notes and other stuff like real cyberpunks, insh'Allah.

@Rizful.com are you ready for the storm that's about to come? View quoted note →

I so despise Big Tech, their signup or landing pages alone make me wanna throw up. Over the past 20 years, they've ruined every good idea we had about the internet back then.

It took me a while to realize just how many fundamental freedoms humans are born with, and how many of those our ancestors gradually gave up, only to have those limitations become set in stone today. View quoted note →

Indeed.
