Good morning my favourite doggo πΆπππ«
Ummm helloβ¦how did you miss my reply ππ
Hey! No idea, Damus did not fetch it for me. Good morning! πΆπΎπ«π«π«βοΈπππβοΈβοΈ
Itβs likely my relay setup and not client issue. I may have too many and sometimes notes are not fetched timely πΆπΎπ«‘π«
Now I see it! Growing pains of Nostr and how relays work! Case in point I guess πΆπΎπ«π€£π€£π€£βοΈπ
If nostr.build went away, so would 90% of our media lol

and they don't have a backup option or any proper search option do you, nostr:nprofile1qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcppemhxue69uhhjctzw5hx6ef0qyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnddakj7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09uq3jamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwdhx7un59eek7cmfv9kz7qpq37c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxq9u2ntp
Make a script to backup notes together with media, problem solved. Same goes for search, technically.
Search will happen, I donβt have time to work on it now, though I already prototyped it at least twice with great results.
Itβs all about time, money and priorities. πΆπΎπ«‘
how about you make a simple button that sends the user a text file to download containing all of the URLs of the user's data
i hope you and thet finances of the project are in good health, otherwise i would hate to be you when users lose access to their data

for a php programmer this is less than an hour's work, please consider the children
It is definitely more than an hour of work to make it production ready. Prototype, probably 15min work for me, to production, around a day of work and testing. There are things that should be considered for security. Also, just getting a list of URLs is probably not gonna be useful for 99.9% of people. Ideally, the backup would be a nice downloadable zip file with all of the content, but this is also not an easy thing to implement while avoiding abuse and DDoS vectors (yes we are constantly attacked left and right). I did once asked here if there was an interest in archival storage but demand was 0 πΆπΎπ€·ββοΈ
if i'm logged in, and i pull the entire body of content on the page, and scrape it for the link text prefix, i can get this list
you are talking nonsense, there is code already in the item view that does this, albeit progressively, you just need to pluck that piece out and remove the pagination and attach the action to a button
what will take hours - probably days - is writing a script that does nip-07 auth without being in a web browser
Why do you need the list of URLs? You can already get it without scraping, just open a dev console and youβll have it.
I was talking not only about account holders, but all the media that is uploaded by the specific npub (free or not free).
If you continue with this type of attitude toward me or other people, just throwing out insults based on your uninformed assumptions, Iβll mute you and move along. I am talking with respect to you, I expect it to be reciprocated. πΆπΎπ«‘
fine, i'll quit paying for an AI service i never use too
in fact i'm not using your service any more and gonna pay for a subscription with postimg instead
your business sense is zero bro
and you are forgetting the number one rule of customer service
ok, in technical matters, customer might be technically wrong but this is a programmer user and i'm probably about 90% right and i get this attitude from you
you know, i recommend nostr.land and nostr.wine but nothing has ever inspired me to recommend nostr.build, especially not you

i have already paid at least 4-5x as much as this on your service
i'm muting you also
demand just went to 1
Is it possible to package up a relay that can be a subscription as in AWS or Azure, GCP or any provider? Has anyone done this? Or perhaps a curl deploy-nostr-relay.sh | bash that starts one up in digital ocean ?
It is possible, but the main problem is the underlying data substrate. You need something that scales well and horizontally and does not rely on a health of a single server. The problem, nobody besides one person that I know of, is working on it. It should also be economically viable, so not just using some expensive DBaaS πΆπΎπ«‘
I would run a few relays if I could just spin up some droplets in DO
More relays is not the solution, client has finite resources and expensive bandwidth. πΆπΎπ«‘
you can install a relay hub on any linux machine, docs here: https://github.com/relaytools/docs
#ln & #btc nodes, we need more nodes...
no wait, #relays !! we need relays!!
Nostr.build could also stand in here. Get this project fucking funded. Actually gets me mad π€
Foundation is not something people think of or notice, until it crumbles πΆπΎππ«
This is a big deal for some of us members of nostr:npub1s3ht77dq4zqnya8vjun5jp3p44pr794ru36d0ltxu65chljw8xjqd975wz. Server and library developer myself.
Why? Why not just whitelist people you like on a private relay and make public relays all paid? How does that not decentralize and strengthen?
How do you onboard new people? With the invoice into their face? Do you also ask all your followers and follows to add your private relay? πΆπΎπ€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ
When he said more relay dev, us he saying there are not enough relays available for nostr? where do I get whitepaper doc about starting a new relat?
We have a service by nostr:npub10npj3gydmv40m70ehemmal6vsdyfl7tewgvz043g54p0x23y0s8qzztl5h that helps with relay hosting πΆπΎπ«‘
I add trusted Npubs (people I enjoy and don't spam) to my private relay and send them a dm that my relay is open to them. So they add my relay to their relay list.
Looks like a pretty accurate architecture diagram
nostr is growing nice
