I like that Olas is taking off, but I'd rather not see people just recreating fiat platforms but now with zaps. The architecture of those platforms and the assumptions that go into the design are centered around maximizing engagement to drive advertisements, surveillance, and centralization, not social connection and local communities.
I think the Nostr apps that will survive won't look like the fiat tech that preceded it.

GM FREEDOM TECH!
⚡️ Pleb Spotlight ⚡️
If all hell breaks loose is Nostr our final frequency?
nprofile1qqsw8tha4zrj22njem340rfnktwdjr5lu5achmtrglh4ufhhggg6mwcenxmm9 may have just achieved that frequency with Nostr over HAM Radio.
The term ham radio originated in the 19th century as a derogatory term for operators who were poor at sending Morse code and the name was adopted as a badge of honor. What’s more pleb than that?
Shout-out to the LF for launching HAMstr Alpha!

I just asked Grok 3 “Who is Quiet Warrior on Nostr”
Quiet Warrior is a notable figure within the Nostr community, recognized for their active participation and contributions, particularly in fostering community engagement.
On Nostr, they are known by the public keynpub1tvqc82mv8cezhax5r34n4muc2c4pgjz8kaye2smj032nngg52clq0rkrq4. They’ve gained prominence for coining and promoting the hashtag #plebchain, which started as a way to connect newcomers to the Nostr network and has evolved into a broader symbol of grassroots community strength, often tied to Bitcoin and decentralization ethos.
Quiet Warrior has described their experience on Nostr as liberating, especially compared to their time on Twitter, where they felt overlooked. They see #plebchain as a foundational layer of peer-to-peer networks, reflecting the spirit of Bitcoin’s origins.
Beyond their online presence, Quiet Warrior co-hosts Plebchain Radio, a weekly audio show launched around late 2023 or early 2024, alongside Avi Burra. The podcast focuses on the intersection of Nostr and Bitcoin, featuring discussions with builders, thinkers, and community members—referred to as “plebs”—about developments in the protocol and broader freedom-tech themes. Their work emphasizes empowering everyday users, often highlighting tools like Value 4 Value (V4V) systems integrated with Bitcoin’s Lightning Network.
While their real-world identity isn’t publicly detailed on Nostr (typical for the platform’s privacy focus), Quiet Warrior’s influence stems from their approachable, community-driven persona rather than any formal authority. They’re a self-described “pleb” who found a voice through Nostr’s open structure.

"The advent of the printing press inflated the supply of heretical arguments so dramatically that even the prospect of gruesome punishment ceased to deter would-be heretics."
#Bitcoin and #Nostr amplify that effect without constraint.

Don’t seek follows. Seek engagers.
In a perfect world my social graph would be wildly productive in a fly wheel fashion, extracting every ounce of Nostr’s potential at the human layer where we lift each other up through reciprocal interaction.
I believe the perfect human network will be the greatest driver to a circular Bitcoin economy. And with that, I’ll continue to contribute to the community in an effort to build that vision anyway I can.

AI-generated response regarding e-commerce returns:
"Returns as a whole are a huge source of waste in the e-commerce industry, with some studies suggesting that in the United States alone, upward of 5 billion pounds of returned goods end up in landfills every year. A significant portion of those returns come from online retail—Amazon being one of the largest players.
Why so much waste? Many returned products (often low-priced or lower-quality items) are deemed unworthy of inspection or refurbishing because the handling and restocking can cost more than the item is worth. That calculation leads retailers to offload or destroy surplus goods rather than reintegrate them into the supply chain.
Meanwhile, e-commerce’s volume—especially in platforms known for massive product catalogs and fast delivery—means there’s a lot of “trial shopping” and impulse buying. This results in higher-than-usual return rates. When the returned items are low-quality to begin with, they’re even less likely to be resold, compounding the waste problem."
We can do better.

GM SOVEREIGN INDIVIDUALS!
How you start your day matters!
How you support our P2P circular economy matters too.
Gentle plebs like nprofile1qqsppdnxpjc82jlm3yn9gawhv7p4nm69a3f80rg5ycw305xned2s0hc28uk0q make Nostr not just a conversation but a global marketplace.

Awesome. I assumed you could use source images, but I'm not sure how you do that via the discord bot.

You can just add the link. Then you can use your mixed up MJ file as a source image again and do more things to it, and make variations etc etc it ends up sometimes being a long process haha
