How would someone on the other side of the country access the http server running on my phone?
How is pear different from http? #asknostr #dev
Can't http and ftp be done p2p ? nostr:nprofile1qqstnem9g6aqv3tw6vqaneftcj06frns56lj9q470gdww228vysz8hqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjmcjgxv3n nostr:nprofile1qqst69c7cwzh54r2n3n9uqtfx8t3wldatf5g0xfzwenrnqzg8vdvc9gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsxvtdhr I'm very interested but off the cuff, without a lot of digging on my part I don't see how it helps p2p.

Holesail Go atm only let's you connect to a server atm and not serve from your Phone.
It is planned in a future version of Holesail.
But you can always do this:
holesail --live
on a different computer that is connect to the same network as your phone.
via a reverse proxy on a VPS unless they have ipv6 and your mobile provider gives your phone ipv6 and somehow you are able to tell the other side what giant fucking ipv6 128 bit address is your phone's
A VPN?
So pear simplifys that
There's nothing complex about a VPN. Pear seems to complicate it more imo.
You have a vpn between two phones that's?
it is easy to do with wireguard but you need a server with an internet routeable address
very handy for me doing relay testing with the help of a reverse proxy forwarding inbound relay traffic to my dev machine
tailscale, openvpn, etc. There are many ways...
it's literally impossible to do it without one side having inbound routeable connection, that's just how it is
without universal IPv6 that's gonna continue to be a very common situation
the mobile operators have had plenty of time to get that sorted out, so i call conspiracy and cartel on it
