We're going to be mass-importing all of the off-copyright titles we can find and format, as well. But only after we get this first release done.
The world is full of free books. Let's put them on Nostr.
Anyone interested in helping, can go ahead and start uploading to thecitadel.nostr1.com with the ebook utility.
I really like the idea of reading on nostr, rather than web.
I was commenting that it would be excellent if when a web url was pasted into a note that the article itself would format as a long form note on nostr rather than taking me to the web.
Oh, yeah, that would be sweet. Probably not even that difficult, since you can convert automatically between HTML and Markdown or Asciidoc. But the devil is always in the details. 😂
Have you tried just clicking on this, on your cellphone and then scrolling down? It goes on and on.
Less than 9 seconds to download all of that, and then you could read it offline. Like, I can't get over it. 😂
You could download entire libraries to your cellphone and highlight and comment all over it, and embedd bits into your notes, when chatting. Bonkers.
Events are so crazy lightweight and relays are so wicked fast.
Watch out for the book police! 😉. More books, more formats, more MORE! i was thinking to myself about an indestructible print book. we have the technology. why are there not more formats available???
Could you maybe have an ai comb over project gutenburgs website a lot of free classic books are there
Yeah, that's where I get the test material from. We'll have to automate it, more, to get high throughput. I'm slow. Took me about 30 man-hours to do the Bible, even using multiple parsing scripts.
