I don't understand.. I don't see this project on chorus or anything linked from the site.. where is the:

"Accountability Measures

Tiered governance structure with pillar leads forming the board that oversees major decisions

Transparent reporting of fund allocation and project progress

Regular community updates on achievements and challenges

Peer accountability among pillar leads" -andotherstuff.org

Sounds cool, is it this universes thing or where is everyone?

we need to udpate the andother stuff site

are there regular meetings?

I loved vine. This is awesome

👀

Nice

much awesome

Awesome!

Trying to pull in your vine shorts into zap.stream and i noticed that the imeta tags are formatted incorrectly

They should be space separated strings

Ugh I’ve been struggling with this.

I also see some events with multiple `url` imeta entries, this makes sense i guess but its supposed to be `fallback` instead

+1 for fallback instead of two url fields in the iMeta

It would be really great if you could add the `dim` entry and `duration` / `bitrate`

I agree, it would great to be able to show video durations and adjust sizing based on dimensions.

I have seen bitrate used somewhere, but afaik it's not defined in a NIP, is it? Should we put it into NIP-94?

Yea im including it in the tags, its already defined in the nips, nostr.download is returning the bitrate tag

Yeah I threw this out and it’s a draft. I think we should be iterating on and improving the media nips.

Amazing.

Published new zap.stream web pulling in divine videos https://zap.stream/shorts

Love that we are making progress with video.

I have noticed you are using kind 1 comments for the videos. May I suggest using NIP-22 (kind 1111) comments instead. I think that would improve compatibility with other clients and is more fitting for video clients.

Imagine if we’d started off with replaceable events.

are you talking about the videos or replaceable comments?

I just mean in general.

the jaf feels that replaceable events break the nostr.

Meanwhile it’s probably one of the main things that’s holding back user retention.

Medium.

This is really cool nostr:nprofile1qqs8d3c64cayj8canmky0jap0c3fekjpzwsthdhx4cthd4my8c5u47spp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqna7ea3.

If I can, I would gladly help with the detection of impersonators, fake accounts and spammers. I've been working on it since the launch of nostr:nprofile1qqstq4j6pk2sgaupru6l7ah9nq0dueafq356jllwcy7uzlek9yx7hlspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvshsnpjku2

Amazing! After I got the TS test address for DiVin from rabble , I was still wondering how there could be so many videos with likes.

“To build diVine, Evan Henshaw-Plath, an early Twitter employee and member of “and Other Stuff,” explored the Vine archive. After Twitter announced it was shutting down the short video app in 2016, its videos were backed up by a group called the Archive Team. This community archiving project is not affiliated with Archive.org but is rather a collective that works together to save internet websites that are in danger of being lost.”

Excellent name

STOKED.

Can’t wait to test it out here in bangkok, making some street food and city devine videos :)

You have test flight invitations to give?

As someone who absolutely loved Vine when I was younger, I’m hyped for this!

Sweet, looking forward to checking it out

Wait, I am just now hearing about it!!!

What’s the terms of service look like 🧐

❤️

idk how i didn't hear about this before, but it's really cool!

iOS and web are a little buggy for me, but i'm excited to see it improve :))

interesting and a challenging endeavor! kudos

Had to remind myself what Vine was again:

Vine was an American short-form video hosting service that allowed users to create and share looping video clips up to six seconds long.

It was founded in June 2012 by Rus Yusupov, Dom Hofmann, and Colin Kroll, and was acquired by Twitter, Inc. four months later for $30 million.

The service launched its iOS app in January 2013, followed by Android and Windows versions.

Vine became popular for its creative potential, enabling users to produce content using stop-motion and other innovative techniques.

At its peak, it had over 200 million active users by December 2015.

The Vine app allowed users to browse videos, view content by theme, and participate in trending videos.

Videos could be shared on other platforms like Facebook and Twitter.

In October 2016, Twitter announced it would disable uploads to Vine, allowing only viewing and downloading of existing content.

The service was officially shut down on January 17, 2017, and the app was no longer available after that.

On January 20, 2017, Twitter launched an online archive of all Vine videos, which was later shut down in April 2019.

That's awesome nostr:nprofile1qqs8d3c64cayj8canmky0jap0c3fekjpzwsthdhx4cthd4my8c5u47spp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqna7ea3
