Today's project is ripping all my favorite songs off of YouTube and uploading them to flare.pub 🎶🔥

I just noticed this morning that they bumped up the max file size from 100MB to 2GB, so that's nice.

Most of the music video files I'm uploading are only 8-16MB though so I'll be able to upload a lot of them. The songs that are audio only are around 4MB.

The biggest issue with flare I've noticed is that the videos don't play in nostr clients. When you share a link to a video in a note, you only get the link and an image, no embedded video

Yeah that's why I post links from my Nostr build account instead.

That actually sounds like a fun plan lol.

Yes! Flare needs more content. I've already got a bunch of ripped music videos in my Nostr build account. Now they'll be discoverable on flare though. I'm so glad we have flare. Fuck YouTube.

I def agree - I was browsing Flare and just saw a blank slate waiting to be filled out. I cannot stand YouTube or whatever that atrocity is now. Fuck YouTube fr, I want to see video thrive here, contribute where I can. Might try nostr build out.

I also want to see a GoodReads and Letterboxd/IMDb equivalent if they don’t exist already. Those are ripe for a nostr client and I would love a way to log films and books here.
