0 sats \ 5 replies \ @BallLightning 4 Apr \ on: Covenants, CTV, And Making Things Easier For Developers devs
Periodically there is some covenant post that gets sus amount of zaps 🤨
My default zap amount is 300 SATs and I like covenant posts. (Especially when they have a demo repo in them)
Why do you think it's sus?

No idea, just vibes.

You know the funniest thing, I went through your post history because I thought you might just a CTV hater for some reason, but you and I have about the same mindset.
You should learn about CTV more. A lot of people are looking at making a lot of lightning network improvements with it.
Unfortunately CTV is politically unpopular because it's author has a very disagreeable personality. To compensate for that problem, I've just been putting whatever weight I can put behind it (which is basically nothing lol)
Seriously, it's a proposal that can stand on its own merits if you give it the chance to explain itself. It's also upgradable which is something about it that gets over looked a lot. It's very restricted, so if you felt it should be less restricted, instead of another proposal, an CTV upgrade is something that could be considered instead.

Hm... Nothing really depends on me so that doesn't matter. I don't even currently run a node (although I want to play with a lightning node, but Darth discourages me to even try...)

Darth is just trying to save you some headache. Encourages private nodes instead of routing nodes: https://blixtwallet.github.io/features
And nothing depends on me either, but knowing there's another ack on the network is another step towards confidence about activation.
(I don't expect CTV to activate within 5 years BTW)
