Not much, but I'm thinking torrents specifically.
- "url" and "x" are irrelevant if a magnet link is shared
- torrents can contain multiple files, thus "m" also becomes irrelevant there
Plus it would be generally nicer to have a separate kind for torrents only.
I looked through some kind 1063-s and found 0 magnet links in my admittedly
very limited search. Not surprising. Lots of images/videos being shared.
Would be nice to separate torrents.

Yeah, so I have my own client... I'm planning to implement a component for
simple filesharing (really just a kind for magnet links, but the current file-metadata
NIP isn't ideal)...
Would you be interested in taking a look? Say, second half of next week
or the week after that?
Word of warning: it's ugly, built in Godot, and communicates with a python
script using plain text files. Really it's a mess but it works.

Why relay based? Spam is spam.

For the record, I think magnet links should get their own kind for easier filtering.

2023-07-31 19:10:42 UTC

Shouldn't 'url', 'm' and 'x' tags also be optional for NIP-94?
They are irrelevant if only a magnet link (referencing a collection of files)
is shared.

Why does it matter if they don't post anyway?
Following is a weird concept to me. Lists are better.

How much did you pay for that software?
How much time did you spend looking through it before you decided to
use it for real-life transactions?
What license was the program released under?
I think I can guess the answers.
If you don't like it, you can always build something better...

Useful advice.
Turns out up until now I was building based on an old download of the nips repo
that didn't have those 2 NIPs yet.

Meh, how large can a js number be?
You'll need a unique way to id a unique kind of data structure anyway.
Might as well roll a big random event kind and just go with it without asking
anyone.
Unless relays reject unknown kinds >=40k, it should be easy to find
unused kinds. And client side error checking would be essential anyway.
Is your method essentially different? Would those paths be reservable?

Are there any POW only relays atm?
Maybe some that reject bloat like kind-7s, quotes, etc?
I bet it would be super cheap to run a relay if only for kinds [0, 1] with a
reasonable POW requirement.

2023-07-26 16:29:49 UTC

Just switched to 4.1.1 in hopes of more stability, and I got a bunch of errors
that weren't given before: apparently I'm not supposed to add nodes
in a background thread.
I suspected the crashes are from the threading...
I removed the related thing (saves are still in the background, smooooth),
and I'm testing for stability now.
Looks promising, I think it's been well over 5 minutes (crashes were really
frequent).

2023-07-26 01:07:20 UTC

My client crashes a lot now, and I'm not sure why...

Welcome to nostr!

2023-07-24 15:25:31 UTC

Database is now dumped in the background, on a separate thread.
No more lag. But "immediate" database dumps will have to be removed entirely,
they usually don't finish fast enough and they are stopped by the
relevant lock anyway.
Reworked a bit of UI stuff for convenience too.

2023-07-24 07:14:27 UTC

Circumstances might have changed.
Nothing is certain yet.
I'll be working today.

2023-07-23 07:14:06 UTC

Okay, I'm done with nostr.
Client is working. Another project of mine that will likely never
see the light of the sun.
No money to be made here.
Time to move towards greener pastures.

No.
I did that a few months back. Made a small scale proof of concept thing.
A few days of work. Tried to get some feedback, but got nothing useful.
Now, I made myself a client, to be at a resonable starting point.
To generate keys and custom events easier if need be.
I will not invest months into a this without a specified endpoint.
I don't want to make a huge effort just to be ignored in the end,
or to be simply told that's not what he had in mind, or that my approach is
not up to industry standard.
I'd like either a solid description of what he wants, or channel, a person of contact,
that I can discuss my approach and progess with.

2023-07-22 14:45:44 UTC

How do I contact Jack? I want to work on the nostr-git bounty.

Yeah a lot of Japanese, also airdrop scams and stuff, but I also
feel like there is real treasure buried in there.
People without a follower base, making root posts, not tagging anyone.
Posts like that go under the radar.

2023-07-22 09:37:48 UTC

Nostr feeling slow? Everyone in your subscriptions is asleep?
Just watch a 'global feed', say, any kind-1 "since" 10 minutes ago...
There is a lot of stuff being posted here.

What is gnostr?

2023-07-21 10:43:06 UTC

After 2 failed attempts at trying to build a reply tree (without relying on NIP-10),
I gave up and tried the simpler task of simply building a 3-level display.
It works. Offline and offline. Good for me.
`XKind1Display` got customizable indent in the process.
A (terminal running bifrost) now opens automatically upon start.
Such automation. Much convenient. Wow.
I'm seeing a little lag upon config dumps...
Not a lot, but I will have to fix that when it gets worse.
Right now, my database is 7MB `active_data` + almost 1MB for the rest.

If you want people to understand the differences between platforms, you
have to accept that that comes with a learning curve.
Either people LEARN some programmer jargon, and then they can take advantage
of the versatility and openness of the platform... or nostr turns into another
oversimplified, unnecessarily addictive clone of an existing big tech
platform.
Yes, some advantages (not all) will remain in the background, but people
won't be able to utilize that.
Most don't want to learn. They want to use nostr just like any other platform,
without thinking about what that implies.
And many devs go along, because more people means more popularity or
more money.
Let me give 2 examples:
1.
Nostr is a permissionless platform, meaning anyone can (should be able to)
make a new keypair any time they wish. But they don't want to.
They want to get verified instead. They prefer a large follower base over
privacy.
And the verification service? You betcha. Centralized. It has to be, unless you're
willing to make an effort to personally verify (to your best ability) the identity
of the person you're talking to (or at least that they're in fact real).
2.
Content filters. You can either learn you make your own, or you can rely
on a centralized provider. Who would bother writing their own, apart from
nerds?

2023-07-20 10:55:19 UTC
