“It's not a social app, it's the social internet.“ #Nostr
quoting

Nostr is a new way of doing the internet that is inherently social

Like phone apps were a different way than web pages, and web pages were a different way than AOL.

I think screaming PROTOCOL at everybody is a horrible way to gain adoption.

Way back when (i'm old 🤷) us tech savvy folks were trying to get people out of AOL were weren't screaming about how cool a protocol http was. It was just The Web and you could find cool stuff with it.

so maybe

Nostr is the social internet.
or
It's not a social app, it's the social internet.

🚨Headline Nostr News🚨

Unfortunately there were issues with the recording of last night’s #Plebchain Radio with and the episode was lost. Take a moment to read QW’s apology and call to action to support Nostr Nests development.
quoting

After personally venting for a couple hours I’m going to write this….

Being early… tap dancing on the edge of change has just as much upside as downside.

PCR28 recording has been lost.

My apologies to who sacrificed a 2am (East Africa Time) show to be apart of the greater mission. I personally promise you I will make it up to you and make sure you are apart of a future show at an “earlier”time.

My apologies to , and the plebs in the live audience. My apologies to the thousands of streams we get weekly tapping into the Purple Side of Life…

Where there is downfall there is opportunity to rectify. No fall is truly a fall if change comes for the betterment.

This is a call to action… Nostr Nest needs help in development!

Whether it is a money thing, a time thing, or a skill thing I believe the #Plebchain community should focus on the end game and lend all that is necessary.

I personally think the grand idea of the next Nostr Nest will be the single largest bridge to Nostr Adoption. The stepping stone to the interoperable social graph built on a foundation of freedom.

#Plebchain 💪

Ars Technica: “X revokes paid blue check from United Auto Workers after strike called.” According to the article, “The move seemingly makes it harder for UAW to maximize reach for its posts on X, just as workers have begun striking, demanding better wages and other benefits.” Although the verification check was later restored, this serves as a clear reminder of the power and potential dangers of centralized algorithms to manipulate free speech.

announces a ⚡️2M bounty to create shareable mute lists that incorporate specific words
quoting

This is 2m now. 1 month expiry.

Another 2m if you make shareable mute lists into a NIP. First come first serve. Other devs must agree that it’s a sensible way of doing it and might be willing to implement.

“It's already done bro.” Jingles posts reminder that Nostr.kiwi already has a muted words feature. 🏆
quoting

Type words you don’t wanna see notes containing those words?

It’s already done bro.

But who cares about nostr.kiwi.

Probably nothing.

calls on the Lightning Dev community to help solve a problem encounter with ⚡️ Zap splits - the ability to pay multiple invoices in a single call
quoting

Zap splits work with Nostr Wallet Connect but they are quite annoying if the user is using regular wallet calls. Without NWC, users must go back and forth between the Amethyst and the wallet app for each split. It's quite annoying.

We need a new method to pay multiple invoices in a single call. Lightning devs, help us out here.

6M⚡️ bounty for CLN commando in Zeus

We've got a bounty open if you want to tackle it https://github.com/ZeusLN/zeus/blob/master/docs/Bounties.md#core-lightning-commandolnmessage-connection

Drops v0.8.0 for testers and releases some new documentation on connecting your routing node at home to
your embedded node in your Zeus wallet.⚡️🏡
quoting

Hey all,

New v0.8.0 build is available for testers (alpha41). Contacts aren't quite ready yet, but we'll but that in a build in the coming days.

We've also published two new docs on our own docs site.

- Open a channel to the embedded LND node -

Learn how to open a channel to your embedded node in Zeus

https://docs.zeusln.app/for-users/embedded-node/open-channel-to-embedded-node

- Open a trusted funding channel to the embedded node -

One potential setup you can have with your in-app, embedded node in Zeus v0.8: connect to your routing node at home (or in the cloud) with a private 0-conf channel.

There are a lot of perks to this set up. You skip on-chain fees, save on routing fees, segregate your main LN funds from your phone, and potentially skip the need to backup your mobile wallet.

https://docs.zeusln.app/for-users/embedded-node/trusted-funding
And a contact book for lightning addresses and Nostr contacts coming soon to Zeus. 👀
quoting

Two monster PRs going into the next v0.8.0 build:

Settings > Embedded Node > Peers. Manually set your Neutrino and zero-conf channel peers.

https://github.com/ZeusLN/zeus/pull/1664

Contacts V1. Add on-chain, lightning, and Nostr addresses to a contact book for quick payments.

says organic distribution is one of Nostr’s killer apps, enabling and empowering a renaissance of small makers and entrepreneurs who will no longer need intermediaries to reach their audiences/customers.
quoting

Organic distribution is one of nostr’s MANY killer apps.

I know it might sound hyperbolic, but I truly believe a renaissance of small makers and entrepreneurs will replace the fiat conglomerates.

This can also enable consensual advertisement;

You can have a proper ad inside your voucher’s main page. Users will also get paid for it. I can see some interesting use cases.
