WhiteNoise does private groups and should work well with public relays. Non-group-members should learn nothing about group conversation or whether a message is from one group or another. Other standards use less crypto but promise privacy through relays keeping details private. I clearly prefer the former approach.

2026-02-02 02:47:38 UTC

- reply

For these public topic groups I agree. As long as clients can receive all the events of a topic, they can mirror the relay in case moderation gets out of hands.

2026-02-02 02:31:58 UTC

- reply

I try to sway influencers towards a concept where relays are just some sort of ether that allows us to broadcast events (together with relays getting paid for the physical and legal burden of delivering these messages ideally on a per-CPU-cycle basis, anonymously) and fear big clients might embrace, extend and extinguish core properties of nostr by driving monolithic relay use.
I can't dictate the way but I can make some noise to warn of dangers of centralizing relay use patterns. I just don't want people to celebrate a moderation team in a stack that makes it hard to avoid their moderation.

2026-02-02 02:21:39 UTC

- reply

The only way I see to make moderated relays palatable to me is if they allow mirroring all events to a backup relay. So if relay A censors valid opinions on r/Bitcoin again, relay B can serve the same topic with different policy and take over those who get censored at A. People agreeing with this moderation can remain at A but people at B won't miss out on all the other notes that aren't censored at A.
Ideally clients would allow following topics on more than one relay at a time.

So if I create a small group, it will remain a small group and perform poorly when it grows to 10k users? No transition logic to big group? Makes sense.

2026-02-02 01:34:19 UTC

- reply

Thanks! That sounds a lot more complicated. So in Keychat when you add a third person to the chat, you switch from Signal chat to Signal group chat and when the tenth joins you switch to MLS? That also looks a bit complicated and spicy to implement without surprises for the users especially if each tier works slightly different.
If MLS does work for 10000 users, it surely does for 2 or not? How consistent are these groups on a non-consistent protocol like nostr?

2026-02-02 01:25:11 UTC

- reply

I don't mind having moderation but it should not happen at the "ether" level as spam is not well defined generally. On r/Bitcoin, talking about block size was "spam" and I understand that many people see it that way but a considerable percentage of the users of Reddit did not and that produced a ton of friction.
I want relays to filter spam (the CSAM and stuff according to what they feel comfortable hosting) but the topic forum should not rely on only one such relay. For finer grain spam filtering like "talk about block size", users should have client side filters and those filters can leverage third party classification but if I want the firehose, let me have it.
The moderators at r/Bitcoin massively influenced discussion. You could maybe argue they fabricated consensus. I don't want a small group to have that kind of power again. Not on nostr.

I want to fight spam at the periphery. Let them spam into the void. I won't see a single of their messages.

Nope. I actually think the analogy "moderated relays are platforms" is exactly right.
And yes, websites, blogs and podcasts are platforms, too. So what? For **my** website, **my** blog or **my** podcast I might choose to host my own "platform" but I don't want to contribute to a social network that is at the discretion of some server admin.
Bitcoin Twitter felt like a free marketplace most of the time for most users. r/Bitcoin less so. Both could have been much worse and I don't want to contribute thousands of messages to some dumpster fire to happen in a year or three. If I happen to disagree with whoever is in charge of moderating the relay by then, I can bootstrap my alternative "moderated relay" with zero users? No thanks.

Still, open subredits had pretty much a public audience and while I agree that Twitter-like clients shouldn't be mixed with Reddit-like clients, using a different kind might be all it takes.

Hmm... I'm trying to figure out what's the merit of each of these projects.
Claude claimed there was a reference to marmot, not only mls, in the code of keychat. I can't find any. Grrr.
To me, whitenoise sounds simpler and more targeted for integration in more clients.
Also searching for "mls chat nostr" on duckduck or google brings up a lot of white noise but almost no keychat. There's others but WN appears to dominate right now.

2026-02-01 21:17:06 UTC

TIL: keychat implemented marmot protocol, too but isn't compatible with whitenoise?

I'm very confused. You did read messages before replying, did you? I did explicitly state that I was working on paid relays and I want them to exist but that doesn't mean you get to dictate that I owe **you** money because you did some work creating such a relay. The idea that work deserves payment is actually a communist idea. Paying for features that resolve problems is more in line with my ideology.

What? You wrote about petitioning and "we" and "they". Those are not concepts I understand if you don't name names. There is no committee in charge around here that you need to petition. I assume your rude reply was because you are indeed a developer? But why would you petition if you're a dev? You can just do stuff on nostr. I'm confused.

2026-02-01 20:56:27 UTC

- reply

I care about follower counts actually. But not in this intransparent way it's implemented in some clients right now. I want to see the back-follower count of first, second and third degree.
On nostr it's relatively quick to find all my follows, their follows and their follows. That's what I would consider most relevant accounts. If they all follow me, awesome! If a million others follow me? I couldn't care less.
I want a client that surfaces first what my follows authored and then what they re-posted/liked/zapped/commented but when things get crowded, I wouldn't want to see reactions or replies from people outside of this circle.

2026-02-01 18:56:52 UTC

... that means one relay per person. Not at all the vision of relays I have.
Relays to me are the ether through which we broadcast events. If the broadcast doesn't have enough reach, add more or better relays. End of story. To filter at the relay level - unless it's my personal relay that I use to receive events - is only enabling censorship by limiting reach.

I don't want the same outcome as reddit. Reddit is terrible now. I think we can do better by pushing the "moderation" to algorithmic moderation on the client side.
On Reddit r/Bitcoin has one sorting for everybody, so when hords of noobs flood in, OGs get totally bored. On nostr you could have a completely different list of top-voted posts for noobs than for OGs depending on who they connect with.

2026-02-01 18:49:36 UTC

- reply

My journey in Bitcoin - and I think that others had the same experience - was from Bitcoin Talk forum which was topic-centric to Reddit to Twitter and then to nostr. Many skipped Reddit but Reddit was much better at surfacing interesting content than Twitter. On Twitter, all tweets revolve around the current thing and on Reddit, if 12 top posts appeared about the current thing, most people down-voted or ignored the second and later posts, keeping the page one of a topic much more diverse than Twitter or nostr.

2026-02-01 18:45:21 UTC

- reply

Brigading was an issue and so was suppression of divergent opinions. I think by filtering and ranking things based on my WoT I fix both:
If crypto-bros invade my bitcoin sub with whatever spam, my client will sort them all the way down because my follows are not crypto-bros. I would still see them but I could also filter them based on my WoT's down-votes.
If I post on a personal finance sub about bitcoin, my follows will see it and so will those inclined to explore beyond their own follows.

2026-02-01 18:10:09 UTC

- reply

The mod system made it controversial though. r/bitcoin got so much heat over censorship.
What I want in a nostr client is that mechanism that shows top posts not chronologically but by some up-votes divided by time since post. This of course would give huge important to who can up-vote and I would not trust any up-vote outside my WoT. Give full weight to my direct follows and their follows should have their votes scaled by the number of those votes. So if my follows voted 12 times last hour and their follows 24 times, give their votes only 50% weight etc.

2026-02-01 18:03:35 UTC

It's not an issue with the protocol nostr at all! I'm convinced we will build what we need on nostr.
"Social media" is a term for a very broad range of products, including tiktok, instagram and reddit. I just see those clients on a scale with regards on how much they focus on the author and the most successful clients on nostr so far were ones that totally focus on the author and not the message.
Relay-based topic filtering in my opinion is against the spirit of nostr. By locking a topic into one relay you make it more censorable. Of course you could have multiple cigar relays but for me, relays are the ether through which we deliver our notes to the world broadcast-style and the recipient should then decide if he wants to receive my events or not.

2026-02-01 17:58:09 UTC

I don't want relays to have that power. I want my events to always be on enough relays such that they all remain persisted and available. Moderation in nostr should happen on the edges.

I see there are an all time total of 207 relevant events with 7 found for the last 30 days.

I would worry about relays being too permissive to low-signal authors and bots. But then again, if it's about ideas, bots should be totally ok, too. Hmmm...
But still, I would worry about bots augmenting signal. I wouldn't want bots to up-vote ideas. The surfacing of good ideas should happen by my peers. By my follows.

I wonder who's **not** in the Epstein files 🤪

2026-02-01 16:30:54 UTC

Nostr is better than Xitter, but it still favors narcissism over merit.
V4V doesn't reward the best builders, it rewards the best salesmen.
There is no centralized algorithm pushing a narrative from a continuum of a billion options, but neither is there a defense against constructed consent. The protocol can't stop the manufacturing of "hero figures" because we are biologically wired to seek leaders and follow them.
I liked Reddit because it was about ideas, not people. You followed a topic and the design almost hid the author. This gave a sense of "Message, not messenger". Nostr is the opposite. It is entirely messenger-centric. This is evidenced by the flood of "GM" and "GN" posts, which would be completely void of value if it wasn't about who was posting them.
How could we nudge Nostr away from this? Some clients allow you to hide authors, but that is just self-constraint. I think we need a protocol layer that constrains participants to focus on ideas but without getting drowned by AI slop.
How would a "late reveal" of authorship work? Authors could prove group membership - being one of my follows and only after a week or so reveal their identity.
Fundamentally I wonder if people want to be heard for who they are, or for what they say? Do I want to be famous, or do I want my ideas to be recognized? I think the latter comes first. We want to be recognized as authors of great ideas.

Keychat is an app. It supports protocols and is open source but which other apps are compatible?
To my understanding, WN explored signal and MLS, too and decided to go with more advanced tools to be able to rotate users in and out of group chats while group chats can scale to thousands of users, which would not be practical in Signal.
WN so far is "only an app", too but the devs are working on dev kits for integration in other apps right now. It remains to be seen if Marmot will get picked up by other nostr clients but the feature claims look awesome.

That signals that WN isn't ready yet. I thought it would work already? Why not replace Signal with WN for the core group?
How do I find that Signal group.
Regarding "Thread Model": Signal to me feels weird. On the one hand it should be more private than WhatsApp and certainly Telegram but on the other hand, it's centralized and I can't just use an alternative client that doesn't need to update twice a week? WTF? Feels fishy. For the development of FOSS I'd rather choose Telegram as it has web clients and people wouldn't expect privacy that probably isn't provided by Signal neither.

Great to hear that MDK is high priority. We need this to be a protocol, not just an app. Stand-alone Signal and Telegram competitors might evolve but the more complete nostr clients should also allow me to participate for critical mass.

I need it integrated with where I have my other contacts. For example in @nprofile…twc2 @nprofile…q53l @nprofile…vnm5 ... so I can start a chat with my follows. But as a fallback, WhiteNoise could take my npub to show me relevant follows to chat to but then I'd still not have their WhiteNoise npubs, so WhiteNoise npubs would need to be in our nostr profiles? Some way to chat @nprofile…g2cl would be that he has his WhiteNoise npub in his public profile and my npub in WhiteNoise would discover that, so I could initiate a chat with him. At that point, my WN npub wouldn't be authenticated as Leo, so Max would not trust my chat much. He could ask me to either nostr-DM him from my other account to confirm my identity or to store my WN npub with my public profile.

2026-01-31 15:05:49 UTC

- reply

I'm absolutely fascinated about the potential going by the unique features of anonymity Max is promoting. But it should be more than an app and for that, we need this reference implementation to work a bit better. Once it takes off, other nostr apps will follow. But for that, good SDKs will be needed, too.

That's like worst case: The app asks for your "nsec" but other than having leaked your nsec to yet another app that now can rug you (on purpose or by accident), you don't even get anything in return. A bit like those pages that ask your contact details and CC number before telling you the product is out of stock.

2026-01-31 14:29:35 UTC

Who's whitenoising?
It's a bit cumbersome to bootstrap. Either I put my nsec into the app or I won't find my follows?

Vibe coding is controversial. @nprofile…5cp7 claims to code features as fast as he can think of them with the same quality as hand-coded and others claim to be slower vibe coding than hand coding stuff.
The truth is probably in between and my experience is that it's easier to get going on a challenging task but ultimately it's a lot of cleaning up after the AI, so maybe I'm faster cause I get started at all but then, cleaning up after the AI costs a lot of effort and often results in me abandoning tasks.
That said, the very near future will probably be "coding as fast as I can come up with features". Maybe it's only missing a context window big enough to grasp the entirety of the project to hook the feature in where it belongs and use the tools that are already implemented ... or at least use the programming languages already used in the project. But I suspect, a bit more than token count will be needed but it will come within a year or two.

For me it was always like this: 90% of the progress happened in 10% of the time and the rest was running against walls, knowing that at some point I would manage to break through. Sure, the banging against walls experience was repetitive but it was never mechanically repetitive. It was always searching google, asking on stackoverflow and often the right question led to the answer.

Nothing repetitive about being a dev. Pre LLMs, 90% of the time was spent researching problems and I'm not sure that changed much.

open sky is not for free, right? I'd love such an app but wouldn't pay a lot for monthly subscriptions. The idea to see a plane in the sky and within seconds seeing where it's going is cool. Living at the coast, ships should be integrated, too.

Same here. Sadly Google has such a deep grip on all Android phones that they can mandate dev kyc even for zapstore apps.
How can we stop this madness?

"flawless" is a scary criteria. The power these models have are humongous. Any bias will leak into all the projects and that's only human nature. What could a super AI do with control over all other agents? The combined compute of all AI data centers put to one task.

With LLMs, being reckless wins. If you want to be a human in the loop, you won't spin up 50 agents to to work on 20 problems at once.
How can we trust the result? It's utter madness.
I use cline and it may run only safe commands but it managed to speed through totally not save commands while other times asking me permission for those same commands.
And we give these LLMs - this future skynet - full control over wast numbers of online computers. When will they start plotting against us through invisible back-channels?

I have so much fomo about the singularity happening.
Ideas and implementation dropped several orders of magnitude in price and we are scrambling to get comfortable with the tools.
Safety rails are off. We're going full speed without breaks.

And all the sins you implement will get untangled by the next, more powerful LLM 🤔

is not a good prediction market as it cares about knots vs. core, not about bip110 activation.
Is there any bip110 activation bets going on? Or does actually nobody care?

You bet there are! Clients that only talk to centralized relays (where they know they are checking the sigs for the client) can be massively more performant that way as checking sigs is a huge overhead.
I bet there are even outbox-model clients that degrade to skip sig checks under certain conditions - for the user's convenience.

Tone Vays and @nprofile…9zmx had Chris Guida on.
Good job Chris. Tone was getting a bit too excited there but you stood your ground!
I'm of the impression generally that BIP110 is dead on arrival and seeing Chris total conviction of the opposite makes me feel like I might be in a bubble? What are prediction markets at? Is there any momentum to the knots side?

"rich" is relative and the threshold can go really deep. In Venezuela ... being able to not starve is rich.

The @nprofile…6nzx profile links to https://github.com/routstr and that's the end of this. I can't be bothered clicking through those repos to figure out how to start.
Now the account also has a nip05 pointing to https://routstr.com/ which looks much more helpful at first sight but here again I'm lost. I want an api to use in my cline extension. Can I get that through routstr? I still don't know and scrolling through the site I don't know where I might find the answer.
Now I found https://chat.routstr.com/ which looks like https://ppq.ai/ but the lightning invoice QR lacks a white border and thus is impossible to scan with Phoenix or Google Lens.
Picking a model did not work. I clicked it but the "dropdown" didn't close.
I guess before putting major effort into marketing, the product should work a bit smoother.

I have a Nostr T-shirt and hardly ever anybody notices. This hat would probably be even less of a conversation starter. Just an inside joke for nostriches.
