I'd like to continue working on Iris & Nostr, but would need funding soon. Any grants available?
Iris is MIT licensed and will always remain free and open source. It's available for web, Android, iOS and desktop. Works just fine on the Tor Browser.
Iris design goals have been speed, reliability and ease of use. I want to work on these further. I want to add public and private custom feeds, including user lists, content filters and different ranking algorithms. We also need group chats and better DM privacy.
I want to add more p2p capability to clients. Syncing of events over WebRTC, local area network or even bluetooth. Iris already supports Webtorrent, but the interface needs improvement. I think we should actually have nostr:file urls for binary files and transmit them over relays or direct p2p.
I'll try to get Iris subscriptions done soon, but it will probably be some time until it's sustainable income.
There's so much cool stuff to be done that I don't want to go back to fiat mining 😄
