Nostr Web Client

For building nostr native gif keyboards maybe we need to start with gif collections or gif lists before we starting building a gif search tool

Maybe we could add a k:10915 and k:30915 to NIP-51 that would work similar to the NIP-30 emoji sets with ["gif", "name", "", "] tags

Then tools like https://gifbuddy.lol/ could have a "add to collection" buttons on gifs and then social apps could pull the collections down and allow users to pick from them

Then stage two could be searching the gif collection of your friends and WoT...

I currently use nip94 to do this and there is an upload tab on Gifbuddy for users to add their own gif (which should show up almost immediately on nostr search)

The counter on the main page is logging the size of the nip94 repository for GIFs published by Gifbuddy

My first reaction is that adding a new kind would reset the progress and split the dataset, but I may be missing something

Why nip51 over nip94?

I actually already have a nostr native gif search engine that queries nip94 events, but haven’t advertised it much because the index is too small (<6,000):

I'd say we use both. NIP-94 is great for keeping track of the gifs and publishing them to nostr, but I think it would be cool for users to customize their own gif collection so they didn't have to search for gifs every time

I think I see where you’re coming from now

nip94 will be the entire dataset

nip51 will be user favorites for quick clicks

So users would sign an event and their favorite or most used GIFs would be tied to their public key that clients could use for better UX

Is that right?

yeah, NIP-51 has bookmark events that could be used for flavoring specific gifs or sets. and "sets" which could be user made collections of gifs
