Nostr is full of rhetoric... don't we have anything better to talk about than "I think this and they think that"? Shout out to the artists, where are y'all at? It would be much appreciated if people could send me some creative accounts worth following

I want nostr to work within the communities where I live, and finding ways to get people to care has been rather difficult. I see why people just end up moving to places where the community already exists.

I've been running a lightning node for years now, just started rebalancing to add liquidity to the network. I have collected 635 sats by routing and today I paid over 4000 sats in rebalance fees to keep my main channels from zeroing out. I did a bit of research and I realized that I've got channels with people who have fee rates set at 1000x what I'm charging - looking at you, @jb55 - and I'm left unsurprised that there are people who don't believe in Lightning as a workable solution.

Currently planning my 5th major revision to SOLAR. It can be really frustrating to go through this process time and again before I'm at the stage where I can start getting other people involved, but once there's multiple people standing on the foundation it gets a lot more difficult to make these sort of sweeping changes - even when it's for the best. My current target is finding a consistent way to address nostr notes with a human readable path so that they can be stored in the correct place on a filesystem. I will be focusing mostly on addressable events, converting the <kind>:<pubkey>:<#d> into <kind_name>/<username>/<#d>/ - notes with no d tag can use the ID instead.
