Does the built-in relay work without a proxy? Or do you need a proxy for it to reach the outside world?
GM, I've some updates for Lume v3, the development process taking longer than I expected due to I a bit ambitious 😅
All things I've done so far:
- Build the Ark library to help user can build custom column for Lume (this is what take my most of time)
- New onboarding with support OAuth login and signup
- New low power mode for low network environment
- New activity screen
- New relay explorer screen
- New post editor
- New experience for column
- Support translation via translate.nostr.wine (cc nostr:npub18kzz4lkdtc5n729kvfunxuz287uvu9f64ywhjz43ra482t2y5sks0mx5sz)
- SUpport flatpak for linux user (thank nostr:npub1qmv86l56udc4pqm44qvyt7ucc5eayd5cgjmmvwhupls74duw7z5q05jq2q)
I'm still working on some features, includes:
- In-app tutorial
- User explorer screen
- A column for display bitcoin exchange rate
- A column for display all other nostr clients
Sadly, the feature help user run nostr relay inside Lume cannot run on Windows, so I need more time to replace it which other backend, original it powered by 'nostr-rs-relay', I will try migrate it to 'strfry'. I want to release v3 this week, so this feature maybe postpone to next update
And I also need to some beta tester, if anyone interest, feel free reach out to me 😁.
Discussion
Hi, by default built-in relay only work in local network, if you want to expose it to internet, you can run proxy like ngrok or cloudflare tunnel
I still thinking about support proxy by default, but it require a lot of infrastructure, and it increase centralize problem, so I add this plan to backlog
If you know any proxy service which is open source and have free plan, you can suggest it to me, I consider support it for lume
Maybe some others in the nostr developer community would be interested in setting up a service to plug into lume. Maybe even pay via bitcoin or something
