Coolest thing about this is anyone could make their own Substack with paywalled content just with Github Pages html pages, right?

I haven't tried it out.... but if it works in web-land (e.g., JS works), then yep. If I end up doing that as a weekend relaxation project, will let you know. You can add it to Ghost, and lots of other platforms through embeds as well. I've even hooked Mash up when experimenting around through Notion + Super (converts notion pages to websites). Not pretty, but it works with our pre-built UI components.

.... if you can't tell, I'm super excited about a bunch of stuff here, and more that can share hopefully in a month or so.

Nice work, really liked what I've seen UX wise so far. Will be fun to play around with it further.

Thanks so much. Appreciate it. As you explore, if you're looking for anything, whether examples of X, more end-points, please do let us know as we're prioritizing efforts based on what folks want! Lots to build.

Hey all, on Monday as part of Bolt Fun's Lightning Legends, we'll be live-coding up the Dinosaur Game with the NPM package to enable monetization with lightning network (sans QR codes). Hope to see you all there!

If I install a getmash.com widget, like one of their boost buttons on my site, does anybody know if my site's users have to exclusively use the mash wallet? I must be mistaken...that can't be.

But the docs for installing a boost button say... "Step 1 ... Ensure the Mash wallet is already installed."

And then this lib says...

// Loads Mash Wallet on site
mash.init({ id: "<earner_id>" }).then(() => {
  // Wallet is now loaded
})

For the boost button to actually be 1-click donations – and provide a seamless user experiences with the best possible UX – that's how it is currently. With lightning users can load as little or much as they want in the Mash wallet and always take it all out. So one scan of a QR code and everything seamless afterwards.

We'd recommend also taking an LNurl QR code (from any wallet, or one we provide) and placing that on your site as well, for donations another way. Options.

We have broader plans of being a coordinator across all wallets which you can see in this live demo of how/why are architecture is built this way.
