support the nerds! it's literally a one liner. once you publish to the playstore, just run
zsp publish -r github.com/damus-io/notedeck -m playstore
and all assets and description, etc will be maintained. you could even build all of this into a pipeline. tell one of your robots to look into this for you.

I believe I can already see this happening now. I can work on a task with AI that takes me perhaps 10 minutes to complete, whereas previously without AI it might have taken me an hour to do. I now have 50 minutes to use elsewhere. I'm a workaholic so I just work on more tasks, but I have that choice :P

2026-03-04 15:23:38 CET

Time is the only resource nobody can make more of.
This is why AI actually matters. It's not because it's cool tech (it is), but because it gives you time back. Hours you spent on busywork, research, writing, planning.
People said the same thing about Bitcoin. That it wasn't just about money, that it was about freedom and sovereignty. Time spent working for something real instead of something being inflated away.
These are two transformative technologies that have the same core idea: give people back what's actually theirs.

I stopped using Coinbase years ago because they supported Shitcoins, but I use Gemini for bitcoin back on credit card purchases. I know many Bitcoin Maxis that do this. I guess we determined that this use case out weighed the downsides to supporting them.
I'll need to see this for myself.

2026-03-04 13:30:04 CET

- reply

No, I did not. I reacted. I don't want Shitcoins in an app I rely on. If it's just a link to do swaps as I said below then your newsletter over sold the feature. If it's just a link then the core functionality is not impacted. Thanks for letting me know. I'll look into it before I make a decision.

Yeah, getting applications to go along with it would be a much harder task I guess since there are much many more applications than there are operating systems. Either way, this isn't a good look.
