Good article as usual. I just want to give The Bitcoin Manual a shout out. I had never seen your content before joining Stacker News. I don't know if it's that I never noticed it early on, or whether you guys are just getting better and better, but at this point you are putting out great content in an easy to understand format. I get more out of your articles than from far bigger, more well known sources.
Bitcoin newbies should spend a lot of time on your site.

Lol Thanks, we don't get much traffic from social media or other sites really probably like 10% combined is from social and referral sites like SN, most of our visitors come from google, bing and duckduck go, so we don't really focus on trying to "promote" our stuff, if people find it, cool.
I think we're lucky that there are so many technical things going on in bitcoin so there's ample content to try and turn into easy-to-understand posts, that doesn't go into detail but provide an overview and then let people dive deeper if they want to do so. Most people are focusing on the money issue, which is understandable, but we find the tech stuff alot more interesting
We are starting to get some decent traffic now, and I do wonder if it will grow if we do get a bull market again

I wonder if there is another way to show a #nostr post, whether long form NIP-24 or "classic" on an existing blog.
For example, to incorporate a Twitter tweet one can make a screenshot and insert that photo, but you could also insert a few lines of JavaScript code.
Is there a similar code snippet to add one #nostr post to an HTML page?

Ah so an embed style? Well a client would have provide an iframe that pulls in your specific note pub ID, for you to do that, which is what services like YouTube and Twitter is doing. I think this would be more of a micro service than a client service, since you want the embed to redirect you to your preferred client should you click on it
