It's the ones that have used the site and treat us like a leper that sadden me the most. Plots will be lost when their loss is mistaken as profitable and bygones will be bygones I guess.
I don't know about biggest :) but it's something I've said I think we do and see as one of our roles.
I need to give Zeus a shot. I think I was upset it stopped being just a mobile interface, but that's silly.
At some point, I'm going to only have bitcoin/lightning wallets on my phone.
Self-hosting is also a rabbit hole that I think will get wider and wider over time. At least until we have better cryptography.

I, for one, know you're a nerd. :)
Running a node is a lot of fun, but it is nontrivial effort-wise and even I neglect my node. I recommend not making it too hard on yourself and using umbrel or start9. If you want to support their businesses, and make it even easier, consider buying their hardware too.
Nice overview! I always like these because it helps all of us jaded regulars see how others see it.
Kind of a tangent: I don't like us being positioned at odds with nostr.
I see us as allies rather than enemies even if many nostr people harbor weird, inexplicable to me, feelings toward us.
We are value-similar even if I haven't yet put SN on nostr or a nostr-like protocol. I prefer the vitriol to be one-sided and for it to have no room in me. Let the haters hate, and the influencers monetize it, while the builders build and the stackers stack.
I think it’s by viewing everything as a gift. I even view bad things as a gift. Either because of what I’ll make of them or because they are a side effect of good gifts that they remind me of.
Pain and suffering are real but when they’re over or when we’ve learned to deal with them, it makes joy and pleasure that much better. It makes appreciating everything that doesn’t cause pain or suffering automatic. Pain and suffering are part of living, but living is a gift capable of so many other things. Pain and suffering are the cost of accepting the gift.
Those solutions aren't for nerds like us.
Some people already have accounts with them, and some people will never run a node or a non-custodial mobile wallet.

GUI to create a session with a budget. create -> select custom -> next -> select custodial account -> set budget -> save.For me, not a writer, I’ll just come on here and comment on a handful of things. Sometimes a diatribe will flow through me and eureka.
I’m rarely a meaningful op though. I need someone else to throw the first punch usually.
A writer I know recommends doing 2 pages stream of consciousness, no point or judgement or second guessing, anything on your mind, first thing in the morning to get the cobwebs out. Then they set about trying to say something.
These little seo friendly tools are a godsend when I’m searching around needing to something specific.
If you don’t run a node at home, your best bet is going to be a wallet that has NWC. Mutiny does and Alby does. If you pay for Mutiny they’ll give you a lightning address too. Alby gives you one as well. Zeus might have NWC but I don’t know.
In any case, without a home node NWC+a lightning address will give you both ways, send and receive. I wish there were more, better connection options but there aren’t. We were hoping to have zbd and strike connections via oath but we haven’t heard back from either.
