🚀 Introducing YakBak – The Voice of Nostr: Yak and reply Bak! This is a new experimental app, built via "Advanced Prototyping". 🎙️ What it does: Record voice messages up to 60 seconds and post them publicly. Your messages are automatically uploaded to your default Blossom server or to blossom.band if none is set. React to voice messages you enjoy. Reply to others with your own 60-second voice messages. Zap messages by adding @Nostr Wallet Connect in Settings. Delete your voice message events any time. (Still working on full audio deletion via Blossom /DELETE endpoint – help welcome!) 🎧 Whether you're sharing a quick thought, vibing with your feed, or just saying GM with your voice, YakBak lets your voice be heard on Nostr. Try it out now: 👉 https://yakbak-orcin.vercel.app (YakBak.app coming soon.) More features (like selecting your Blossom server, audio deletes) are on the way. Feedback, bug reports, and PRs always welcome!

I'm not a voice notes type of person, but love the name and concept!

Fragmenting nostr kinda like Olas did Why not just attach a voice note to a kind 1 post and maybe use a hashtag like voicestr to help sort it from music posts etc? All a new app like this does is split people up into separate groups like Olas tried to do, which is never helpful on its own, especially while nostr is struggling to grow to critical mass Anti-user bullshit should be expected from you though. After all, you repeatedly gaslit me and muted me when I called you out for saying hashtags worked perfectly on nostr (they didn't) - then later, while already having me muted, you said hashtags can never work (they can) View quoted note →

hey man. I decided to open Primal and I saw this reply. Primal doesn't follow my mute list on Amethyst. so yes, the tools do work quite well, depending on the client. as long as I continue to use Amethyst, I'll continue to never see your notes. as I said yesterday, the tools we have do work quite well. I was wrong in implying that they work on all clients though. some implement mutes differently. sorry for the confusion there.
