I always thought you needed to have loads of incoming channels for Lightning to work well for you, turns out you just open channels to the nodes you use the most and the job is more or less done for 90% of use, however, god strike me down if I try to send sats anywhere else!
If I see another "no route found" error I'm throwing my Umbrel out the window!

It helps to connect to a few central nodes.

Watching Jerome Powell's (Federal Reserve Chairman) testimony... I am reminded of the Shakespeare remark "All the world's a stage", as various Senators grill him with softball questions, or faux outrage.
The guy is a criminal/actor presiding over a planned train wreck, and people will still wonder about this years later and make documentaries and new movies like "The Big Short" and "Margin Call"... "oh gee how did they mess it up so bad?"

Using SN more and Reddit slightly less. SN has become my go to source. Laso, using Nostr a lot more and twitter a lot less.

I've stopped using Reddit directly entirely and instead subscribe to the RSS feed tied to my reddit account. Much easier to quickly get through everything in an RSS reader, rather than dealing with their stupid UI that purposely puts things out of order to keep you scrolling.
reply
I didn’t know reddit accounts have their own RSS feeds! that’s awesome.
reply
Yep! It's a feature they've had for quite a long time. I use it extensively
reply
this is why libreddit is a thing

I also use my rss reader for stuff other than reddit. I prefer to have everything in one place :)

Not much. Routine work here, awaiting for tonight so I'll start implementing multi-profile handlers for my rust rss-nostr bridge as I finished configuring the automatic binary release yesterday

I didn't understand much beyond "not much..."

I am currently writing an application that broadcasts RSS feeds onto Nostr.
Such tool already exists with golang as @fiatjaf did build one. However i already started my project when i saw that it was already existing.
Main difference is that the app i'm building will be built with Rustlang and will be CLI only.
In its current state, the application broadcasts all the feeds under a single Nostr identity, so i'm looking to allow configuring the application to associate a specific nostr profile to one or many feeds.
