Los van dat elektrische autos jarenlang NU!!! euro wegenbelasting kostte; diesel autos zijn al iets van 2x zo duur als bezine autos. Dus waarom zouden ze voor elektrische autos niet een ander tarief kunnen hanteren?
Overigens maakt het voor de daadwerkelijke belasting op het wegennet natuurlijk niet uit, elektrische autos zijn krankzinnige panzervoertuigen wat dat betreft. Ook parkeergarages zijn er bijv niet op berekend om maar iets te noemen.

Damus has an interest in providing a working relay for its new users that start using the app no? It makes sense for it to not have barriers such as payments.
Frankly it also just needs to provide that service for about a week or so, such that users can get up to speed and find relay footing elsewhere.
The fact it is months today is just lucky because we are early.
Atleast thats how i see it, but i have nothing to do with damus🤷♂️

And how does that compare the situation/platforms of today?
Dont discount the fact that Nostr might not be turbo ninja enough to your liking with the big wins it does manifest.
Also, i dont see how the 'anonymizing network' helps with anything given the npub is out there in the open as it should be. I sure hope you don't mean to think in the direction of cycling through endless adhoc npubs, because at that stage i think you are missing the whole point of Nostr.

Ive looked into that screenshot myself when it got shared a lot and i think it is fake.
Its a screenshot of an archive site, not 4chan itself. That archive site stopped keeping that specific statistic for years. The last snapshot of it you can find on the wayback machine is from years back and the numbers are all rather close (except for the israel one ofcourse, not high at all).
So i can only conclude its an old screenshot because otherwise all the numbers would be way higher if it were recent; and its editted because the isreal number comes totally out of nowhere.
Besides, why would any israelli/mossad operation use such obvious IPs?
Not to say they were not active on those boards to psy-op, just commenting on the validity of that screenshot

So a bit of background insofar i can see/know.
Johan Pouwelse is the driving force behind all of this. He had been active in the distributive computing side of things for a long time, and all the sudden Bitcoin showed up. Atleast at the time (dont know what his possition is currently) he disliked Bitcoin.
But at some point this whole "blockchain" craze came up, and he simply capitalized on that buzzword to draw attention, funds and resources to his projects by setting up a "blockchain lab" at the university. He rephrased a bunch of things so he could continue with his DAG + signatures based systems.
Now i have a lot of disagreements with how he views things, but Tribler does work well, and he had done decades of work on WoT type systems so perhaps there is something of value here; just ignore any mention of 'blockchain' and percieve it as oppotunism to capitalize on hype by a desperate proffessor :P

Just dropping this here, but might be worthwhile to look at Tribler and what they have done over the years.
Its a torrent client build and maintained by distributed computing guys are Delft technical university (so Phd's master students etc, supposedly all well documented with accompanying papers).
The core of Tribler is the addition of onion-routing, but they (atleast for a while, maybe its in the background of removed now) have made a reputation/token system based on seeding.
Its a decent client regardless, highly recommend it other than that they recently ditched the standalone application and its is interface is now in the browser which i absolutely HATE :( .

Its a 'trending feed' phenomena, because it games those metrics via lottery.
Nostr allows for so many more clever ways to find relevant things that are far harder to 'exploit' via these types of methods.
I am pro-buzzbot for this reason, hope both devs and users(honestly as a user you have tools and means already with a bit of effort) are motivated to explore other ways.
I also advice every buzzbot innitiator to send a stupidly large amount of sats to themselves via a sybil to reclaim that 80% pay-out.

Every model fails the turing test, as long as you inform the human what to look out for. Because these models have specific things they fail at that are completely trivial to humans.

His point is a different one. Lets just frame this entire thing in the context of email, that way we can see how its both basically a non-issue and how Nostr is actually superior.
People pick an email provider dont they? They dont seem to have much trouble picking one, there are plenty of options. Sure you could run your own, but basically no-one does. We can therefor conclude for email to work, running your own email server is not a requirement (fiatjafs point, but with relays).
Now add on top that switching relays is fairly trivial while switching email provider is not, and we are actually in a better world than that currently exists out there.

As an additional remark: its actually based on the Bitcoin blockchain. You can now cryptographically proof that the timestamp i produced, is (in special way) embedded in a particular bitcoin block. This means that any outsider (that has his hands on this proof) can verify that Ross his post must have existed before the time of that particular Bitcoin block. And because of Bitcoin's proof of work system, you have high assurances as to when (roughly) that must have been. Unfortunatly you don't know how long before, but at the very least not after.
Now because its just a proof and it relies on Bitcoin, it does not matter that I was the one that produced the proof, i am completely irrelevant to the verification process. I.e anyone can timestamp anything from anyone else.

The dumb part is about the type of queries you send towards a relay; the point is that you should be able to ask any relay the same type of question. Or put the other way, a client (or a feature rather) should not depend on some special sauce server/relay side in order to work, because that means 'lock-in' and undermines/destroyes the whole Nostr model.
Now wether a relay cooperates (i.e. what policies it employs for accepting these simple/dumb requests/queries) is a different matter. Actually it is precisely BECAUSE the relays are supposed to be "dumb", we have this situation where relays can deploy whatever arbitrary 'censorship' without causing (fundamental) problems, because you as a user can move over to another relay.
Its the "dumb relay" idea that allows for the censorship resistance; and as a result provides freedom of association.
Hope this clarifies

I guess there is that side of this, sure, kinda comes with the territory; it is far worse in 'crypto'-land though (i.e. everything that is not Bitcoin).
The point is that money is a tool we use to coordinate at a scale that is larger than a small tribe; and Bitcoin as a system provides the means to coordinate at global scale in way we could not do so before. The legacy system achieved global scale but its a layered cake of middle-men that allows for a whole bunch of fuckery, especially by those at the top of that structure.
I understand if you are skeptical towards a lot of the high-minded talk (summerized in 'Bitcoin fixes this', with 'this' being basically anything you can think of), and intepreting it as mere excuse making to cover up underlying greed; but i assure you thats not (always) the case.

You can dig up kind 1040 events using NAK with:

You can also verify the timestamp but you need github.com/fiatjaf/ots for that.

The 'purple PoW' means there is proof of work detected on the event, because the event ID has leading 0's (similar to bitcoin block hashes). If you did not do this on purpose, it just so happened to occur on accident.
The eventID of that note was:
000000b4c48f13aba0db463751ce17.
The '24' is the associated difficulty
Thats a lucky streak of 0's sir, congratulations :)

Gues one can still use a sybil anyway; in any event, you can always outbid everyone because the competition has no incentive to go beyond the 80% target, while sending money to yourself basically has no limit other than liquidity. Result is you get the 80% back.

Nostr Open Ladder System;
An inconsistent open ranking system for (verifiable) games.
Chess will be used to illustrate the system.
- All events will require timestamps in order to be considered valid, creating resilience to trivial post-hoc attacks.
- Each player declares their player-profile, which is serves as the genesis event of the coming linked list of matches.
- Each match consists out of a ‘match declaration’ event, which is a musig between the participants, which references their respective previous match results, amongst stuff about the game, and possible tournament, possible referee, etc.
- Each player is responsible for analyzing their opponents match history on possible inconsistencies in order to determine a ‘distrust-score’ before deciding to engage in the musig/match.
- Each match then normally has a ‘match result’ event, stating the outcome of the match and each players new ELO-score.
- For any reason one or both of the players can publish a dispute event; this serves as the reference for the next match, not impacting the elo-scores.
-This results in each player having their own chain of matches that can be verified on internal consistency. Subsequently more analyses of all the subsequent opponents histories could also be verified, etc. The closer the proximity between a players existing social graph, and opponents match history, the less of such verification has to be done.
- Any inconsistencies that arise as a result of using wrong ELO-scores, or forks due to dispute events will be tolerated in terms of calculating the ELO-score, but will be judged on in terms of ‘distrust scoring’ and may result in exclusion/not engaging in matches.
-inconsistencies can be pointed out on their own, locally within the chain of matches, so records of these ‘proofs of inconsistency’ could be made and distributed. i.e. digging up dirt on a player.
-Trust scores based on your own social graphs, and distrust scores based on inconsistencies in players history, give players the means to find and play against other players that they want.
-Bootstrapping trust networks could be done via tournaments and leveraging existing chess communities and ‘influencers’

Yeah, and when the server goes away, so does the ranking. Il copy paste my draft for what its worth. Hope it makes sense (note in advance, the thing is that there is no water tight sollution to this problem, so this mechanism is explicitly not watertight)

I have an idea for an open ladder/ELO system laying around........
But besides such fancy things, the fact you can directly comment on a particular game etc. should make voor interactive environments. Same goes for chess or whatever

Well, i do agree when creating a Kind, you ideally craft it such that rendering just the content field in a dumb way would provide a minimal viable expression; would require an explicit implementation, but a very dumb/simple one.

That is; there is good reason to use particular kinds, if only for filtering/search/exploration reasons, besides other fancy context/application specific usecases.
But alt-tags should be able to either atleast load something such that its somewhat clear i am looking at instead of producing an error of some kind; and in cases such as this it could provide the minimal viable userexperience

You have to switch your thinking, things can work the other way around on Nostr. Ive have yet to nail down the right words/metaphore, but il take a swing.
On a platform, they determine the online reality; everything that passes their gates is now part of that world, and in second instance you can chose what to actively ignore.
Here, its the other way around; you determine your online reality; the people you follow, the relays you use etc. and in second instance you can decide to broaden your horizon.
The difference is in the fact that a Nostr client is this 'active' thing facing the chaos, instead of a 'passive' interface for a central (supposed) order.
Not saying all current clients totally nail this, and that its easy and without problems, risks or whatever. But on Nostr the default is that everything is fake, everything is spam, everyone is a bot and its all noise; but you actually equiped to navigate the mess.

'Unthinkable', yes, indeed, they are unaware; unaware of the risks they run by attaching themselves to a platform, unaware of the nature/architecure of the problem, unaware of the sollution.
They "feel" they have no alternative, just as much they "feel" there are issues. Same goes for the audience side, that "feel" there are issues with platforms(the algos, dark patterns etc) and "feel" there is no way out (and why many probably welcome government intervention, if not out of sheer desperation).
Obviously converting the center in a single day is not a thing, but especially these days there is a whole lot there in the margin that is ready for 'capture'; and going back to Williams original post, is a matter of getting the point across

Obvious bootstrap problem is obvious. Also, you are wrong; plenty of creators and alike decide to go the way of focussing on their own website and building an email-list because they got burned on platforms or were smart enough from the get-go. They do this because eventhough they have to start over again and/or things might grow slower (innitially), they know that the following-capital they have build cant be rugged out underneath them on a whim.
The whole point of Nostr is to provide both censorship resistance AND network effect; and is therefor a superiour way (albeit eventually) to either platforms or ones own website

Until you have a completely innocent webshop and mostly use instagram for your advertisement and some automated moderation bot nukes your account for lord knows what reason; good luck getting in touch with a human to get it restored.
Until you are just a normal guy, but happen to be Brazillian and some court decides X is no longer a thing for you.
I can go on and on. Now your percecption may very well what you described, does not mean it is correct.

The first two things i would have you do are:
On Primal, try out the 'user feed' functionality:
Go to the profile page of someone you think is interesting, go to the option menu top-right and select 'add user feed'. https://image.nostr.build/58e6271f0853ffe6ec518c5f8b4765705738b85b6d3c36e074802a0edeb9a91d.jpg
Then, go to the homepage, select the feed-menu at the top (probably says 'latest' currently), and you can now select that 'user feed'. You now get a view based on that profiles perspective on the network.

The second thing is, try to use another app with your current profile. For instance Damus if you are on IOS, Amethyst if you are on Android, or Jumble if you are on a web-browser.
Good luck

'Nostr is just a bunch of Bitcoiners'
Yes, indeed it is (i dunno, is it? Just roll with it), but nobody is just only a Bitcoiner, you are other things beside that:
Go be those other things on Nostr as well, that way our road-side jungle spirit can be happy
