So... p2p file sharing over webrtc over nostr is here. This is the PoC.

Will share a hosted version that you can seamlessly use soon, we are still better-ing the UI.

Also we might not want to fully commit to a hosted version because I dont want to handle DMCA and CSAM complaints, and i cannot commit to a moderation UI at this moment. We will however try to make the open source code as easy to run as possible.

The Readme is the spec.

Thanks to nostr:nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcprpmhxue69uhkv6tvw3jhytnwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0qqs2ytd7283uwxdd3vkdc0j0lsshdusrw0esy7m858wxcm5hd77ddkqc0epzd who's shared my excitement about being able to build this and contributed code to help make this real.

This looks interesting but what default stun and turn servers are you using? I've tried to get webrtc to work before and it always failed without a TURN server (relay)

If both peers are behind NATs you WOULD need a TURN server. Thats the only way as we understand it, one upgrade that could be done is to fallback to the ToR network if a direct route cannot be established, but that would suck for bandwidth
