I think I'm going to let myself get distracted and build a framework like this http://cdn.hzrd149.com/f85b576851cdf917533f388fab2596c9970072b242a8a75709a94c43fb1dc038.png
The goal is to separate the data fetching layer ( relay subs / outbox model ) of nostr web clients with the UI layer. This might help with debugging and might make it a lot easier to build UIs since all events are stored in a single place
Currently in noStrudel the events are spread across multiple "timeline loaders" and "profile loaders". this sometime leads to the UI not being able to find an event that another part of the UI was showing ( i.e. thread unable to find events shown in timelines )

The event publisher tool in noStrudel is designed as a tool to let users / developers publish any kind of bote they want. Its not really designed for editing notes, at least not in the sense of editing replies

its an "issue" with blossom in that when you upload a video or image to blossom it does not optimize or re-encode it
So depending on the videos format or encoding it might not play on other platforms
The solution here is for me to stop procrastinating and finished the media optimization endpoint in blossom so that it can correctly handle media uploads from phones

Want to edit any event and generally make a mess of things? You can do that now in #noStrudel (next version)
https://a.nostr.build/San09RoAYHV7fLe6.webm
I also built a few preset templates https://github.com/hzrd149/nostrudel/blob/master/src/views/tools/event-publisher/templates.ts
If there are any nostr devs out there who would be willing to help add templates, please open a PR 😀

Nearly 90% of replies to my notes are spam. kind of sucks
I've been listening to everyone talk about ways to fight spam, or use the WoT to filter it out etc
But because noStrudel is a web client I have very limited bandwidth and processing power, only enough to calculate WoT out 2 levels. so most spam prevention techniques would be too heavy for a web app.
Plus the app would still be downloading the spam, which isn't ideal.
All of this has given me an idea. What if the app worked without needing to configure any relays? 🤔
I don't think this would solve the spam issue, but it would at least show a lot less since the app wouldn't always be pulling from free relays
All that said this was probably the funniest one. apparently Lyn speaks japanese

It would be possible to adding the PoW features for replies in noStrudel, or event filtering replies by PoW
Although PoW does not solve spam. all it does is filter out low power machines, i.e phones.
If the spammer has a GPU then they can still easily add more PoW to their notes then a phone can

Please fix your NIP-07 implementations, as soon as I click the login button on your apps my signer extension gets spammed with 300+ requests to decrypt every single DM I have
I would post screenshots but I cant because my browser freezes as soon as I login 😞
I'm using nos2x-fox but the extension shouldn't matter, spamming decrypt requests as soon as the user logs in is really bad UX

I would love to see a future where we reply to kind 1 notes with NIP-22 replies, then pulling the "default" social feed of kind 1 notes would be so much cleaner
but transitioning to that will take some time and coordination on the part of clients

A catch 22 is still better than using kind 1 for everything :)

I have been meaning to remove them from noStrudel, however I don't want to do that until I make it possible for users to use old versions of noStrudel. since I know there are still some users using NIP-72 communities

2024-09-06 13:40:11

- reply

noStrudel v0.40 switched to using the NIP-51 kind 10004 lists to track what users where in communities. I don't think other apps have updated yet to using the new kind and are still using the generic kind 30001
Either way, besides the technical stuff NIP-72 communities don't work well. the moderation was poorly designed and requires an extra event for every post, which makes it really difficult for clients to load
It also makes it fragile since some free public relays might delete the approval event or event the underlay post event.
TLDR. NIP-72 is not the way forward for communities, they do work now but only as a common place to post stuff. the moderation is non-functional

2024-09-06 13:33:18

I organized the github repo for #noStrudel a bit and added a bot for keeping track of what changes I've made that have not be released yet. so if you want to know whats in the next.nostrudel.ninja version then you can keep an eye on this PR

I am trying to slowly move over to gitworkshop, since its going to be so much better than github mostly because users don't have to create an account to open or share an issue

Adding the client tag does not really change the security or privacy too much. IMO
Almost all clients have a distinct way they construct events (order of tags, supporting hashtags, mention tagging, etc) so it wouldn't be to difficult to fingerprint events and guess what client constructed them.
We kind of already do this in the nostrability repo when trying to figure out what client created bad or incompatible events
I made it opt-out because it wouldn't be very effective if every user had to go digging in the settings to turn it on. and as I said above it does not change much for privacy

Okay... Sixth and final version of the notifications view in #noStrudel
This one *finally* tracks what events have been read and lets you navigate the view using VIM or arrow keys.
I never bothered to make the app track the read / unread status of notifications because I thought it was just a nice-to-have feature.
But after I realized that the notifications should be treated more like an email inbox and not a timeline the read / unread status became very important
Its out now on the next version https://next.nostrudel.ninja and as long as I don't find any more bugs it will be in the next release v0.40.0 ( which is at least 4 month overdue... )

Just a heads up for those using the next version of #noStrudel. I added a new option to add NIP-89 "client" tags to events that are published from noStrudel
NOTE: This is going to be turned on by default because I think its great for discoverability. feel free to turn it off if you don't like it

If your self-hosting noStrudel this will be off by default https://github.com/hzrd149/nostrudel/blob/next/dockerfile#L16
