Replying to Avatar nostr.build

If you’ve noticed nostr.build media loading faster, it’s because it is!

We’ve just made some pretty big changes behind the scenes:

- Migrated ALL media from the AWS S3 to Cloudflare. This will reduce overall cost and data-out, and consolidate with the CDN.

- Migrated from Bunny.net CDN to Cloudflare CDN. This will reduce CDN costs, provide more locations and a much faster global network.

This also should allow access in Iran, and other countries where Bunny.net was banned..

- CSAM filter and reporting to NCMEC. Cloudflare has a scanning tool we are using. This is the only algorithm nostr.build uses for good reason.

- A new naming convention for links. We’ve removed all /directories with new links now looking like the below:

Free uploads:

images.nostr.build/

videos.nostr.build/

pfp.nostr.build/

Accounts:

i.nostr.build/

v.nostr.build/

- Added your pfp in the main page menu bar for account holders

Cloudflare v AWS, same thing, but Cloudflare is a lot cheaper.. I would say AWS is worse in a few ways..

Also, if you consider AWS the worst place to store media, opposite direction is good! :)

Another positive note is we were able to do it over a weekend, testing a quick migration to a different platform, we can do again if we need to.
