Nostr Web Client

Media hosts that support arbitrary/encrypted files could build javascript viewers on their domain. Encrypted pastebins work the same way. I suspect some image hosts wouldn’t want to host arbitrary data (encrypted blobs) so we would need dedicated hosts for this? An ephemeral, encrypted, pastebin-like thing for files would be cool.

Pretty sure #[2] ‘s void.cat does this, store encrypted non-image files as blobs.

I can also allow for encrypted files coming from clients, and put them

In another location. Glad to experiment!

Awesome! This has been the thing that has been stopping me from adding image attachments in DMs. If i could encrypt + upload and then store the key in the # then it would be perfect. Could build a quick js viewer as well if someone hasn’t done that already.

I am also open with nostr:npub1zxzmle6ysrvsqa4fujq352hsvclhu5faenyl6qnvxy3ux229z2aslmvwsx for a separate endpoint and location for encrypted blobs. 👋🏽
