Just completed my first couple of uploads to Flare. Very interested in any YouTube alternative like this.

Hmm did you upload with the same profile? I followed you on flare but not on nostr itself

Yeah. Although I did it through the Albi browser plugin.

The npub of the profile on flare is:

Ah ok. I might need to change it then. I was reluctant to put my private key into the browser. I must have used a different key through Albi.

Use nos2x then you don’t have to use your nsec

Just figured this out with nos2x. Thanks so much.

Here’s my first upload to my correct account.

Excellent! Will watch it right away 😎

One thing is interesting: your videos show up on zap.stream but when trying to play nothing happens

Hmmm. That maybe something on the Vimeo side of things. Doesn’t seem to be rendering the video.

Yeah. Could also be an issue with zap.stream but I don’t know

Me either. I’m enjoying the tinkering and voyage of discovery though.

That’s the spirit! 😁

Can I ask you how big the video was you uploaded? Trying to get someone else to upload to nostr but he said his video is 9GB

My videos are generally in the 4-6GB range. I host them on my website using Vimeo. Flare lets me just paste the Vimeo share link and it rendered the video.

Native uploads to Flare seem limited to 2GB and are hosted pay-as-you-go on an AWS server.

Ahh I see.. thanks for the info!
