We are in the midst of a peaceful revolution against central banks and their 1%-favoring fiat system and against state/lobby censorship. That will definitely go down in the history books.
In the latter case, there are only about 20,000 people worldwide who are regularly active on Nostr. And a lot of more are still searching for alternatives at the wrong places.
In the former, there are likely very few who acquire Bitcoin for these reasons. I hope that during this (hopefully) prolonged stagnation of Bitcoin's fiat price, the idiots who see it only as an investment to cash out later (in fiat) will decrease, and that the true Bitcoiners, who are building a real alternative economy with it, will remain.

One of the first things she mentioned was, she wants to restrict (censor) online speech.
To be honest, it doesn't personally affect me because I'm not a U.S. citizen. But I know that such trends can also become popular in Europe.
I always think about such guys, "What the hell are you thinking? Doesn't your country have bigger, serious problems that you should maybe address? Your people are sleeping on the streets damn it. And a predominantly large portion is just 3 unpaid rents away from that. And if you should get elected, you should be tackling the toughest issues and not throw out such smoke screens."
In the past, they at least promised good things before the election and broke it afterward. Today, they already have the audacity to announce such nonsense BEFORE the election.
They do not intend to change the system, they want to change YOU. They're fine with the system because it serves them.

The more negative view:

and the more optimistic view:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YA-awBFhM1Q
I tend to assume the latter.
Because justice is the most basic good that Muslims have to defend, even if it is against themselves. And this criterion came before all worship rituals, before the Harams were even introduced. And justice is at its worst in traditionally Muslim countries.

"The signs of God can be found in His creations. In all kinds of creatures that are walking on earth. These kinds of proofs are pointless for the one, whose internal decency, their soul is lost. They can't see any of this stuff. They can look deep into the sky, they can look into the universe deeper than we can, but if there's no goodness left inside, they can't see God's work in it. None (of the signs he sees) would come to benefit them. They won't see Allah's work in it, they'll just see a 'random accident'."

2024-08-28 16:17:50

That's complete nonsense.
Quick setup and designs and loading times.
In WordPress, you have the choice of creating a custom design in your code editor or using the integrated block editor. The block editor is still evolving and can't do everything yet, but that's changing rapidly. Additionally, there is always the CSS editor. If someone wants more control in WYSIWYG mode, they can work in more professional editors, such as the Divi Site Builder.
Moreover, the ecosystem is huge. Bigger than with Hugo. If you just need a quick website for a craftsman business, it can be done in half a day, and it looks good.
The loading speed is only slower compared to a static website because WordPress is completely dynamic. But anyone who understands their craft reasonably well can achieve good loading times even with a website that has more than 14,000 articles from 900 authors, WooCommerce, paywalls, etc., according to every measurement tool (example: https://islamische-zeitung.de/ ).
No third-party connections.
This account has claimed that before, but WordPress does not make requests to third parties. The above-mentioned, well-loaded website does not have a single third-party request. Of course, this has to do with the choice of plugins. If you choose bad themes or plugins, it can happen that Google is fully embedded. And even if it is, there are very simple ways to get rid of such requests.
https://m.primal.net/KRll.png
Updates
This is the first time I've heard that security updates are something bad. WordPress is, of course, widely used and therefore a honeypot. But the update policy is so secure that I have set all my WordPress sites to "automatic updates" (the operator doesn't notice anything) and my sites have not broken even once in several years. So that's just another myth.
WordPress has no bloat unless you make it that way. It's not for nothing that it is the most widely used CMS and can do almost anything, which cannot be said of Hugo.

If this were to happen for ideological reasons (has it already?), I will laugh at you 'freedom tech' slogan-speakers so hard. Sure, you can always replace a relay. But there is already a concentration around the same 10 relays. And if they all come together, for example, to maintain shared ban lists, then technically you can still evade, but you will still be pushed to the margins in terms of your reach.

Whenever commercial companies claim a say in the development of free technologies or even aim to take the lead in shaping the narrative, extreme caution is required. This happens repeatedly on the web and has first led to today's advertising and tracker-based business models during the blog phase, and more recently has shown in the Blocksize Wars.
Their pattern is always the same. Overzealous but inexperienced CEOs at the helm, who are personally impressed by the technology and seem to immediately know how to market it profitably within their small corporate framework, are completely blind to the toxic elements they introduce into the situation through their arrogance and growth greed.
They spew out supposed rules and facts like a money printer does fiat money, ignoring previous natural and innocent developments, and overcompensate for their insignificance by desperately trying to take control. But web laws do not function like market laws for a rare commodity that one does not necessarily want but needs. Here we are dealing with things that one wants but does not necessarily need. These Ferengis usually do not grasp this.
That’s why they quickly claim to be "making the world a better place" with their small, crappy applications, even though the exact opposite occurs. In hindsight, one becomes wiser but repeats the same mistake with the next nice project, stemming from the same intention, without ever analyzing or even understanding their own behavioral patterns.
The history of the web is repeating itself, and we can learn from it that it's best to keep greed out of it and to try to allow the natural, playful development to last as long as possible. When the commercialization of blogs began, influencer culture, Facebook, and Twitter were also quick to jump in, and what disappeared first were freedom, sovereignty, credibility, and the human-to-human experience.

"But “competing against everyone” is a losing strategy."
Who says that? New times require new dimensions in competition. There are a lot of devs here, we're all here. It's just a matter of structuring and incentives.
And I think we _have_ a tech problem. No product is fully developed and everyone knows things are buggy. Even with good marketing, we would have a lot of disappointments after onboarding. For example, how do you explain to the masses in a non-technical way that you can't change/delete things? The lack of such a basic function alone will cause a rethink in online behavior and will also cause some regrets.

Nostr doesn't compete so much with Twitter, FB or other social networks, but more with single-sign-on providers such as Google or Microsoft. Using multiple apps with one verified signin. And have a good payment option at the same time. Only without KYC and annoying middlemen. That's the slogan. Twitter is also trying to go in the direction of an “everything app” because it can't grow with only posting notes; Nostr is competing with this. And it has the potential to replace all the big tech with it.
The social media application stands out at the moment, of course, but it's not for everyone. The ecosystem and the other apps need to be pushed more. There are people who have nothing to do with social media but sell things on eBay all day long. Shopstr is a promising candidate. Or # asknostr for Quora-like platforms. And there are more use cases where identity and payment are central.
You know, I got my first high with a Zap, but my second, no less, high with a small freelance gig via Shopstr. I've never done a job so stress-free, fast and straightforward. More of this please!

Btw I never use Google Fonts on the websites I make.
1. I always look for an OFL licensed font on https://www.fontsquirrel.com/.
2. Download it and use their web font generator (https://www.fontsquirrel.com/tools/webfont-generator) to compile the css and WOFF/2 fonts for selfhosting.
3. Then adjust the paths and file names slightly and upload it to the web server.
And now a pro tipp:
Use only a custom font for headings. Leave the body text in the CSS set to default. How does that work?
Simply use the CSS instruction:
body { font-family: sans-serif; }
Or serif, if you like. Then the browser will always choose the OS' default sans serif font on the website. Every OS (Win, Mac OS, Andoid, iOS, Linux etc) has a default sans serif font in it, which is normally a well-designed, readable font.
You have to let go of the idea of always displaying the same font on all systems. It is enough to use the best font on each system.
This saves loading time, is an adequate choice in 95% of cases and all have approximately the same size ratio. So the 16px size of the default Windows font is also about the same size as that of the Mac. Just a little different.
