All, there is a really nice, new content hosting service dedicated to nostr. The model is different than nostr.build in that you pay-per content and length of time posted, very good for large file and video uploads. nostr:note1gknpluexcm6xkd0ecvta5eazmr8rf37f3je62rg9lydstlkn8leqcqkahy

Thanks for the shoutout. It's awesome that nostr.build provides a free, super-clean, standalone hosting service — that feature set alone has done so much for the nostr ecosystem.
I reckon Satellite CDN can fill a different niche for podcasters and long-form video content creators.
I like that you don’t have to make an account, but it still knows you once you add credits, cookies?
Also like that you can ‘Delete’, that is a nice feature.
Does it strip exif location data?
It doesn't modify the file at all. I thought about stripping exif by default but the problem is that if you modify the file on the server it breaks the client's ability to verify the hash(es) returned by the server by computing it locally. One solution could be to strip the exif on the client before uploading, but that would only work for images. I'll probably add it as an option at some point.
We get the ask a lot. It was literally the first feature I added per requests. Video is difficult, it is not exif, often proprietary/device related, depends on the format…
No cookies necessary. The server just listens for the zap receipt.
