For years, third party scheduling apps for social media have done this for users. Users don’t realize they need to do it. The first person to make a third party scheduling app for Nostr that is like the ones real social media teams use will help Nostr win and become the go-to for normie users—if we ever get them. I keep saying this and will die on this hill.

The problem with Nostr all the things is hash this hash that. So, whatever is uploaded is required to be unchanged. I don’t make the rules, but users live with consequences
Or they just leave 🤷♀️
There needs to be work done on all fronts, not just nostr.builds end. This is something that affects the entire ecosystem, clients, servers, all of it.
Every other platform does this in the back end yes. It would be great for Nostr to see a good video handling system, but it's yet to come about. Supporting HLS would be fantastic. I saw so many vlogs that where 5 minutes long and 2GB, while I encode full 2 hour movies at half the size.
If Nostr video ever wants to take off this needs to be solved. I've been banging this drum for months.
PREACH BROTHER
HLS would be great! i'd love to see that. users could upload their massive video files and sign them. the video platform could then transcode or stream them. (spoiler: this is essentially what we're doing with diVine.) maybe we need diVine to start the video revolution here?
I wanted to implement it, but (and I am sounding like a broken record here) blossom will blossom will block any uploaded media manipulation.
Nip71 already supports multiple video streams. Good luck getting client devs to build it in a timely fashion though. Coming in 2028 😂
shipyard.pub is very basic when it comes to scheduling. i'd like to see something like hootsuite or buffer. i've used those for social media management for various brand accounts over the years and they work great. we won't get nostr added to them though unless nostr blows up and reaches the masses. someone would need to build something like that. i don't see why this couldn't be added to #notedeck to be honest. it already resembles these apps with various columns.
Shipyard has never worked for me. Hootsuite and Buffer are too basic. They are the worst. HiveTalk is the only post scheduler that works for Nostr.
Have you tried pidgeon.lol for scheduling? I've been checking it out over the last couple days. It's slick. I've never used schedulers so I cant compare, but it's dvm driven & it does quite a lot. What I've used of it seems to work really well.
