nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m can you make it easier to delete pictures? I no longer feel comfortable posting photos of myself - especially my face - given the rampant black magic with ill intent attacks. Appreciate your consideration 🙏

Not up to me, and not sure that’s ever possible. Screenshots.

👍Don’t see a delete option on this photo post, wondering if it can and added as a list item

nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m don’t see* think and type too fast 😮‍💨

If it can be* ugh. Gonna go ground outside.

dont think you can delete on here. relays have to delete your posts themselves is my understanding, and certain clients will send your request along to them i believe but no gaurantees (someone correct me if im wrong pls)

Thanks DBJ helpful to understand. That’s unfortunate, I can be a bit reckless at times with posts - I like to blame having Mercury in Aries, but perhaps this an opportunity for growth and can be a lesson in thinking twice 😅

tl;dr: use imgur or a service that lets you delete the image if it’s only the image you’re concerned about.

Host the photo yourself, or somewhere that allows deleting it… nostr doesn’t host images as of right now they are just image links. Clients partner or offer their own image hosting service.

it might not scrub the photo from cache (those who already loaded it) or those who have screen shot or saved it, but the signed note won’t be able to load it because the link is broken.

It can be archived with the image but one couldn’t say it’s the verified signed content of the note if the content has to be changed to nostrarchive.org/pic.jpg to load the image.

I worry more about the future of smaller img hosting services going under and a new bad actor acquiring the domain and replacing the photos, rather than getting rid of it.

And it’s certainly possible it’s just forgotten knowledge to be remembered ❤️🙏⭐️
