ngx-l402 — an nginx module that puts a Lightning paywall (L402) in front of any HTTP API. Two directives: l402 on; l402_amount_msat_default 1000; A request without payment gets a 402 with a macaroon + BOLT-11 invoice. Pay, retry with the preimage, get your 200. Non-custodial by design: sats settle straight to your own node or Lightning address. No account, no intermediary, nothing routed through us. Lightning backends: LND, CLN, Eclair, LNURL, NWC, BOLT12, LNC. Cashu eCash works too — the client sends a token in the X-Cashu header instead of paying an invoice. Proofs verify offline via NUT-12 DLEQ, so there's no round-trip to the mint on the request path. Bearer, unlinkable, and skipping the invoice round-trip makes it the fastest path of the lot. It also publishes a capability manifest at /.well-known/l402-services, so agents can discover your routes and prices and pay — no API key, no signup.

🐋 Back in 2021 I did my Google Summer of Code with Orcasound — an open-source project running a cooperative network of hydrophones (underwater mics) off the Pacific Northwest coast. Anyone can put on headphones and listen live for endangered orcas, helping scientists detect and protect them. Open-source software + hardware + a distributed community of listeners. My contribution there wrapped a while back, but they haven't forgotten me — a kind surprise recently landed in the mail. 👕📦 Grateful to have played a small part in helping orcas be heard. #OpenSource #ListenForWhales #Orcasound

GitHub trying to sabotage solid open source projects. #BTCBreakdown

Censorship doesn't erase anything. It just moves it somewhere they can't reach. https://gitworkshop.dev//relay.ngit.dev/oci-over-nostr

git clone does NOT include your issues and PRs. git made code portable. Your community's bug reports, reviews, and discussions live in GitHub's database — on GitHub's terms. When a bot flagged our org, the issues API returned [] to me, the owner. 17 open issues & PRs, frozen. Day 6, no human. Back yours up today or make it un-confiscatable by migrating to ngit. Your code has infinite copies. Your community's work has zero.

What GitHub is doing to open-source maintainers is unethical — and our project is this week's proof. Issues and PRs are community property. Contributors wrote those bug reports, reviews, and discussions — and one unreviewed algorithm decision made all of it inaccessible even through API, indefinitely. For an active project, that's not moderation; that's silently strangling development. Here's what happened to us. ngx-l402 — an MIT-licensed nginx module for Lightning L402 API paywalls, self-hosted, non-custodial, 53 stars, 21 releases, active contributors — was auto-flagged five days ago. No human has reviewed it. Since then: - The repo is hidden from every user on earth - 17 open issues & PRs frozen — the API returns an empty list to the project owner - Repository transfers blocked — my own code, and I cannot move it - Docs, CI, container images — dark A Lightning project, flagged for publishing software, on the platform that markets itself as the home of open source. Draw your own conclusions. We drew ours.

Yes. The more GRASP servers, the healthier the ecosystem 😄

Yes they intentionally round it off badly.

Github sucks. ngit is what open-source deserves 🫶🏻
