CakeWallet has a novel feature I wasn't aware of until now. If you pin an XMR (or other supported) wallet address on your TwiXer profile, or put it in your bio, CakeWallet will automagically map to that address if you input the TwiXer handle in the Sending dialogue.
I would very much like to see this feature extended to Fedi. Support for addresses in bio fields is already a part of Mitra, I'm sure it'd be simple enough to integrate
@silverpill By "decouple", do you mean that the subscription system could operate without any payment component at all, and that payment would be an optional extension of it? What would be the main difference between Subscribers and Followers in this case... Subscriber Only Posting?
I actually had to click on the starburst icon before I realized it was the new Subscription Management section... it's not really a big deal in the scheme of things, but it's actually hard to think of a good, simple icon to represent "Subscriptions" as a concept when it isn't associated with money.
I see the Mitra subscription icon changed from the dollar sign coin to a starburst icon... personally I preferred the clear visual connotation to money, but I guess this works too.
It's the game so nice, we're playing it twice. This Saturday, join us for Part 2 of our journey into a disgusting world made of meat, also known as the Chinese version of Factorio.
"Let's Keep Trying: Scorn" is this Saturday, November 2nd, only on PeerTube:
In which the Japanese National Police Agency tries to imply they've cracked Monero, Signal is used to coordinate home invasions in Tokyo, and Japan elects Majiin Buu as their new Prime Minister
It's Friday night in Japan, on a long weekend to boot. This Sunday is Culture Day, and because I too am a man of culture, I share Japanese culture with you all in celebration.
The more I actually try to use Bitcoin Lightning, the more I hate it. I just want to send and receive digital shekels. All of this shit about channels, inbound/outbound liquidity, etc is a pain in the ass and gets between me and what I want. The fact that channels can arbitrarily get closed, leaving money in limbo for days is even more shit.
AlbyHub closed a new channel I opened after 13 fucking minutes... now I need to fund another one if I want my wallet to work, but I can't the funds in AlbyHub because they're too few and stuck in closed channels anyway.
I have an embedded node Zeus wallet on a phone with enough sats to do the job, but oh no! The channel's stuck as Inactive, and even if it does activate properly, there's too many zombie channels so any attempt at payment times out and goes nowhere.
I won't pretend Monero hasn't given me headaches and borderline heart attacks in the past, but it's got nothing on this Lightning shit. When it works well it works well, but just one piece out of alignment and it all goes to shit. Lightning fucking sucks, and I'm not willing to pretend it doesn't.
Something happened in the last 24/48 hours that ballooned media storage by roughly 10Gb. I had to manually prune remote posts to get the media folder down to a manageable size.
I've changed remote media retention from 50 days to 15, hopefully that'll keep things stable for now. But I may have to look into expanding available storage, because god save me if I end up zeroing my drive here.
