@crunklord420 sup nigga
short names (nip-05)- add nostr.json under .well-known on a web server you control and enter your npub in lower case hex format (different from the format you posted above)
- some people do this for you as a service. some charge money
- enter yourname@yourdomain.com in your profile
- you will get a checkmark and you can link to yourself like this: https://ditto.pub/@goatmeal@apathy.tv
getting tipped- alex gleason's client derives a plain bitcoin address from your npub enabling you to be tipped with traditional bitcoin transactions. this is unpopular and expensive. idk how to get the money out
- most people use lightning wallets but they are stupid and all use trusted third parties. lightning is very popular on nostr but everything about it is extremely stupid
- blitz, cake, and walletofsatoshi all give you a short lnurl name such as crunklord420@cake.cash you can enter on your profile to be tipped more easily. this is the most common way
- some more .well-known trickery can proxy the lnurl provisioned to you behind a name you specify so you can get paid on a vanity lnurl on your own domain
- some nostr clients added payment directions where you can specify ethereum, monero, venmo etc but it isn't popular
tipping others- many people use nostr wallet connect to remotely control their lightning wallet from within their nostr client. blitz wallet supports it and a couple others
- or just click the zap button and manually send the payment to the address in the modal dialog using any wallet
- tips usually go to people who post the most masturbatory horseshit about why bitcoin is perfect and will suck your dick. the most deserving people usually don't get anything or they conscientiously opt out of lightning because it's a bad retarded protocol. the whole culture around tipping is stupid
mentions and quotes- you can mention anyone by pasting their npub into the body of your note, or do the @ sign and the client will try to look them up
- notes have an nevent identifier. you can paste these anywhere in your note and it lets you quote post that note. you can paste multiple nevent strings into your note and it will quotepost all of them
relays listthese are the ones im using it might be overkill idk. the last one costs money to write but is free to read. some other relays cost money but this is uncommon

I think you have to use wss://relay.mostr.pub to guarantee your notes always show up on the other side of the fediverse bridge but I'm not sure. alex made it he's the better person to ask
