Nostr Web Client

For some completely stupid reason, he lost his entire livelihood in seconds. Very scary when you think about it.

Nostr fixes this!

Nostr doesn’t yet fix the colossal storage and hosting problem that is the YouTube database, but I think it’s an important part of the solution.

Or even the audience yet. Like he said on his post, he's on other platforms but no one watches

The audience will happen when we build a viable, simple, sustainable alternative, and the creators arw driven to it. Then the mob will follow.

And then the serious attacks against nostr begin.

yep, or enough people with audiences get deplatformed and bring people over

Yes, but it keeps your contacts. So, even if some third-party CDN refuses to provide your services, you can change to another one and still have your audience.

Personally, I like this model. Hosting videos on 'distributed' relays is a nightmare.

Yeah for sure, that’s what makes it such a huge improvement to the problem. I certainly don’t think relays should host video, I don’t even think they should host images. But hosting, organizing, and making largely persistent the vast amount of data that YouTube does in a responsive manner seems a Herculean task.

I have faith it can be done, but aggregating a video database from potentially 100s of CDNs is going to be anything but a simple or straightforward problem, imo. Very curious to development in this area though.

Nostr is not yet the solutuon for everything. There is more usefull freedom tech like Peer-Tube instances and Odysse/ Lbry. But most people wait for the pain instead. Why?
