dtonon / daniele is on Nostr

Working on https://nostr-proto.org (and related Squalk forum software), https://fevela.me, https://nstart.me, https://njump.me, https://oracolo.me and other inspiring nostr projects. I love to build helpful things that people are pleased to use, mixing tech, design, usability and accessibility.

Beautiful, and the small format is intriguing.

That's really cool!
Long live the small communities on Nostr.

Any source?
SS takes 50 preview frames AND the final pic, it is a lot of entropy.
Also in "full" blackness the sensor registers very different levels, you cannot have two similar entropy patterns.

Sorry for your loss, Gigi.
Life is still largely a mystery, we need to learn to appreciate it more.

> Get a Trezor Safe 7. It's a Bitcoin only version from the company that literally invented hardware wallets
I don't mean to complicate an already difficult situation by questioning your generally helpful advice, but a few hours ago I went to check out their website specifically to verify this.
On https://trezor.io/trezor-safe-7 "bitcoin" is mentioned only one time, near "Ethereum and Solana". "Crypto" instead is mentioned 18 times.
Maybe they also ship a Bitcoin version, like other hw brands, but we can safely says that Trezor is _not_ a "Bitcoin only" company, they happily take advantage of the crypto/shitcoin market. Aside from the ethical aspect, their technology stack is certainly more complex, with all the associated consequences in terms of attack surface.
Anyway, their devices are sexy af.

That's weird, I see the v1.4.0 here: https://zapstore.dev/apps/naddr1qqgkxmmd9ej8gmmwdahzumtpdejkuaqprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9uju7npwpehgmmjv5hxgetkqgs8hhhhhc3dmrje73squpz255ape7t448w86f7ltqemca7m0p99spgrqsqqqlstkfakd9
Instead via zapstore app I briefly see the app page and then an error: "The app is no longer available. Press to go back."
@npub10r8…t2p8 can you check please?

Announcing #Squalk
Personally, I’m not a fan of real-time communication at all costs; I believe that an asynchronous approach based on more in-depth content is often more effective and healthy. So why not breathe new life into good old-fashioned forums? They seem like the perfect solution and I really don’t understand why something like this didn’t already exist on Nostr, so I created it!
https://chronicle.dtonon.com/94e5e35647a77dfdff5a6d6f5fd271195d6d8adb97a87e0b17ab5993d6ccb36c.png
The basic idea behind Squalk is to offer a tool through which anyone can build their own community, where the main focus is on thoughtful discussion.
Each forum includes a chat feature in the right-hand sidebar, which is useful for quickly interacting with other users in spontaneous and temporary discussions, thus combining the best of both worlds.

Squalk supports both single-room and multi-room setups.
It’s also possible to add resources in the form of articles and customize specific pages (homepage, contact page) to offer a unique and distinctive experience to your users.
You can format and tag your posts, and there’s full support for quoting.

Squalk is based on NIP-29 and NIP-7D, with some minor implementations that are fully backward-compatible. I’m also exploring how to extend NIP-29 for better permission management, so that various types of groups can be created.
After refining these parts, I will add an admin interface for the admins.

Have fun and let me know what you think! :)
