Hard disagree. I want better Nostr native integration in the most commonly used apps. Why should I have to exit Damus to watch a livestream that’s also running on Nostr? Breaks the whole experience. Is what Amethyst does to render preview links somehow not possible on other clients?
Discussion
are we talking about playing a video or providing a full live stream experience?
when im on nostr and someone is live streaming on youtube, i leave nostr and i am now on youtube, with the fill experience of links, live comments and likes on comments.
when im on damus, do you expect damus to render the video, the live comments, the live likes as well? if yes, they you are basically asking the devs to recreate zap. stream inside damus, amethys, primal etc.
then when im on damus watching a live stream, i dont need the rest of damus anyway, i am not engaging with this type of content, so why would it matter if im being transfered to another app?
this is where the design model of #notedeck starts to make more sense, there is already an alpha verison of zap.stream on notedeck
I don’t walk around with my laptop open.
indeed. good thing it works on mobile and is a responsive app!
Will be nice when notedeck apps can register themselves as handlers, so when you click these links in the columns app, they open in the full featured zap stream app.
This is a bit different than the vitor model where each apps share an on-device relay which is not possible on ios. In this case they all share the same in-browser relay, which has best performance.
Its clear I still have a lot of work to do to explain what notedeck is 😅
Best way i can describe it is it allows many devs to build very high performance apps in isolation by coding to a nostr browser environment. these apps will be able to talk and interact with each other within the notedeck browser via the local relay.
The environment is just a shared nostrdb instance and things like image cache, relay pool, immediate mode ui context. Wayy simpler than the bloated browser stack, and is specifically designed for interoperable nostr apps that you can jump between easily.
