Last Notes npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew @npub1hu3…h8nh this another impersonater? npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew that’s exactly my point, it’s important to expand on things like NIP-65 to efficiently distribute content across many smaller relays. As it currently stands, the way apps find content across relays doesnt even fully make use of NIP-65, especially big apps like @nprofile…a660 that still haven’t prioritized that at all. npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew Well that was always something the nostr protocol was going to have to handle if its supposed to be a true alternative to Twitter. npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew whys that? npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew and Bluesky profiles are bridged here using @npub1d03…pzfs like so: @nprofile…gyjc npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew Nostr profiles are already being bridged over to Bluesky, for example: https://bsky.app/profile/npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240.momostr.pink.ap.brid.gy npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew the relays host the archives npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew In light of recent events with Internet Archive, I figured we could really use a decentralized Internet Archive to have a resilient backup. npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew PSA: " #Ecoli Outbreak Linked to McDonald’s Quarter Pounders, with most illnesses in Colorado and Nebraska." npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew Which cloud service do you recommend for deploying this? npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew #note1yr2…dey3 npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew Choose a nearby Amazon locker rather than your home address as the delivery location. npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew Ditto.pub has quickly become one of my favorite nostr web clients, super fast and clean.

That’s why i think if this sort of thing is implemented, it should be in the form of specialized relays that accept file blobs, that way it can be an explicit decision of whether or not to accept those kinds of events. npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew What ever happened to these discussions around storing files directly on relays (those who choose to accept file upload events)? npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew Which sites? npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew What about NIP-97? This way, copies of the file can be distributed across multiple relays that choose to accept NIP-97 events, and users don't need to think about what servers to send the file to. npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew https://image.nostr.build/15af2124b3ace472354c418924cc29fd772f5c36fe47a0c8a351b3516ed08035.png npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew apps that are super focused on one specific function. npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew https://image.nostr.build/3a94df99ecafdb315b5170ae139714e0e3e6b8b78d868bdc6357a0d594c77337.png npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew Interesting, which note is it? npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew basically just trying to figure out how to get a fork of highlighter deployed lol npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew like you just ssh into a VM and do your thing? npub1k979np6dcpwh7mkfwk7wq3msezml48fh7wksp9hakakf8pwk3y5qhdz7te Andrew I'm American and find eating rice with a fork to be bizarre and inefficient lol.
