No problem. Thanks for trying it out with Lavish's wallet.

@StevenB Yup, I’ve forwarded him the message and we’ll figure out where to migrate to.

@behindthesch3m3s

I'd really check out the Ably wallets. They seem to fit the bill for what a podcaster needs. @JakeHider and @sliekpodcast have used it in one of their feeds, and it seems to be working well.

@StevenB @JakeHider @sliekpodcast

I set one up but haven’t explored all that much. Definitely will check it out further.

@behindthesch3m3s @JakeHider @sliekpodcast

I'm pretty impressed with it's ease of use.

@behindthesch3m3s @StevenB @JakeHider login on their website and click the wallet tab at the top.

@sliekpodcast @StevenB @JakeHider

@lavish

@dave @StevenB login to Alby on their website and click the wallet tab at the top of the page.

@dave

It's really easy.

1) Login / Signup to Alby
https://getalby.com/login

2) Click on Wallet
3) Scroll down to see your Podcaster Wallet Info
4) add that info to https://podcasterwallet.com/ or your feed

@StevenB Thanks!

@dave @StevenB so behind the scenes this is still a keysend payment to Alby's node, correct? And I assume they use the valueRecipient to determine who the payment goes to specifically?

@rheedio @dave

That's right. It looks like it's working very similar to a LNPay wallet, which a lot of the apps are using for hosting their in-app wallets. The keysend gets sent to their node, the customKey lets them know it's a hosted wallet, and the customValue tells them which hosted wallet to apply the transaction to. If you didn't have the customKey and customValue in your valueBlock, the sats would just go to their node, so those two items are real important to make sure you get paid.

@StevenB Interesting they are using 696969.

@dave @StevenB
I just took the same as LNPay 🙄 ... tbh this is stupid and we should take something else, or at least this should not be user-facing

@dave @StevenB can we add them to podcasterwallet.com?

@dave @StevenB we have been testing it with the value tag for Jake Hider's music feed that I set up. Seems to work great. I've been talking with them about ways they can improve and add some features.

@sliekpodcast @StevenB Nay chance you can include the medium tag in that feed?

@dave @StevenB we did.

@sliekpodcast @dave

Yeah, it's already showing up in the music list.

@StevenB @dave we just have one track that is doubled listed. Probably due to how I am hosting the xml. Looking into different options so that doesn't happen again.

@sliekpodcast @dave

I've also been asking them about creating an API that gives an app permission to access the transaction history of a wallet so 3rd party apps like embeddable leaderboards or boostagram walls can be built.

@StevenB @dave that would be awesome!

@StevenB @sliekpodcast @dave we actually got an (so far undocumented) API to load the transactions.

on getalby.com under settings you find an API key.
With that you can do a GET https://getalby.com/api/invoices with an API-TOKEN header.

It gives you the JSON of the payments chronologically ordered.

This is WIP, but it is good to hear what you would need or want to build.
