The way #Plebs was built as a single page app was with the average joe who isn’t a dev in mind. If for some reason the Plebs domain were to ever be seized, it wouldn’t matter. The plebs app doesn’t need dependencies installed and there’s no compiling/build process. Literally anyone can just open the html file and load the Plebs’ #Nostr front-end from their own machine. Like my nip05 says…

I don't understand. If the government or hosting company seizes your domain and server. Yes, it means I still have my plebs account and videos because I logged into amethyst using that account I made on plebs. It's pretty much a note account.
but that means the plebs front end is gone. The plebs front end is amazing because it's made in the style of YouTube so we can easily browse through videos only.
Do you have the front end files somewhere where you can just give the files to someone and that someone can easily spin up a server and restore everything back to what it was before your server was seized?
I don't know how to do what you said. You mean I can install the plebs front end interface on my local computer?
Why don't you mmake your plebs software website into software instead like photoshop where I can install it on my computer as software then we have no worry about it getting seized or shutdown like a website. We won't even need a website. It will be just software installed on a computer.
Yes, you can download the file off GitHub. Also, there is no server 🤓
You just download the files and open the index.html file to run Plebs locally
So, would it be sufficient to install it on that Nostr service without DNS, whose name I cannot recall, and it would be perfect?
The “Pubky” one or whatever?
Plebs is still technically relying on DNS as that’s what the relays will be using.
Just the app itself can run locally not requiring accessing through a domain.
You could have the Plebs app files saved to your computer and just open the index.html file to launch the PWA.
No, it's not pubky.
It's a service on the Nostr protocol, I think it's called nsite.
