Nostr Web Client

Yep, either that or embed the crawler directly on citrine. nostr:nprofile1qqs827g8dkd07zjvlhh60csytujgd3l9mz7x807xk3fewge7rwlukxgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qgswaehxw309ahx7um5wghx6mmd9usjfpck leads that project if you want to discuss some UI work.

So what to me looks more like a hackathon project than months of work for a rockstar dev is this issue https://github.com/greenart7c3/Citrine/issues/27 - you make sure that all events go through your local citrine relay which in turn handles all communication to other relays via TOR.

The more I think about it, the more I see it's more than a weekend project but 3 to 9 months? As you talk about UI/UX I guess a major part of the challenge is to actually hide it from the user and there is hardly a way around having some always-online inbox/outbox relays that my grandma couldn't be bothered to choose, so I don't know how you see this part getting resolved as part of the task.

Also you are talking about a "crawler", which to me doesn't fit my understanding of the rest of the task. An indexer maybe?

Maybe it's more of a syncer than anything. Like a Dropbox for events, but acessing thousands of servers to see what they have and list to the user or delete.

You replied to the Citrine issue at https://github.com/greenart7c3/Citrine/issues/27 and I'm still not sure where things are so complicated that it would cost 1BTC to implement it. On the contrary I see potential for a paid service that could turn this whole thing into a profitable business. But a 1BTC kickstart would make it more atractive to get started. So again, who has funds for what exactly?

I agree. It could be a profitable business. So much that there is a possibility for VC investment, depending on the model.

Opensats can grant 1BTC/yr. You just need to start and apply. I think there is a pitch for the HRF as well to make sure comms are uncensorable and to know when activists are being censored.

But I didn't meant that people will help kickstart it. You will have to show some proof of work before anyone invests in.
