Nostr Web Client

The fact that more and more apps built on Nostr is treating it like a public key based remotestorage.io is a good sign.

If DWNs didn't really suck at shipping, they might have became the standard for per-user backends already, but here we are.

Nostr was designed to be a Twitter alternative and made a lot of sacrifices to reach that, and the nsecbunker (giving your key to a server) is a clear sign of that, it devolves publickeys into a server owned identity.

Let's try again with more focus on local-first apps and proper key management.

Been a member of the remotestorage and solid projects since the start. I am hoping to port the best parts, to nostr, and fix a few of the bugs along the way.

Actually I helped develop a pub/sub system over websockets for solid. But it has bugs. It was quicker for me to work with fiatjaf to get nostr in good shape, that it would have been for me to get solid patches upstream, which I've had working since 2017. Hopefully it will all converge.

With any luck, I'll get some more time to develop NosDAV, however some of the important parts are working, and I use it all the timer already:
