There is no such thing as a “normal post”, there are conventions, they are never universally followed, and “amending” a spec for the sake of amending a spec, in a way that breaks compatibility with all other competitors and has no real benefit is just questionable at best and malicious at worst.
NOTHING CHANGES IF THE LINK IS IN A TAG OR THE CONTENT!
Fuck off, learn how to read
nostr:note1lmeucqh2t9y2xusmsmz7rs3mj5h6jwdz5ulxxcy0qaynya9g8mjqsve4jl
explain to me what is the benefit of your change that you still have not clearly documented and is worse than just adding a tag
It’s just how we built it. We could’ve added a tag for the transcript but clients would need to add it, which would take just as long as adding what we did. Same dev time.
One is a breaking change the other is not
That’s the point. We don’t want clients to play it unless they support transcripts.
oh huh why are you telling people how to build their apps?
The point of Airchat posts is audio+transcripts.
If people don’t want to support Airchat posts in their app, they don’t have to. 🤷♂️
go make a different kind then
We did!
You guys just started attacking me before we even published it. It’s absurd.
Oh my fucking god
If your entire intention on Nostr is to build proprietary specs and force others to comply with how YOU do things, then stop piggybacking off of free relays that are being run by people for *interoperability*, and make your own centralized backend
It is not proprietary you fucking idiot! It’ll be released soon. You’re literally hilarious, yakbak was made as a clone of Airchat.
then the apple’s lightning connector is not proprietary
it checks all the boxes
✅ managed by a single organization with interest in control over the design
✅ little to no intention to cooperate, imposing specs preferred over collaboration
✅ attempted as a way to divide the ecosystem
✅ designed solely to serve the owner’s use case
- we aren’t a corporation
- we have basically no funding you twat
- go fuck yourself
my post did not say anything about you being a greedy corporation
it appears you have no intention to collaborate and I hope others realize this
you may continue development in your own isolated island
We made a new spec. People can adopt them, we will help them do that if they want to. You guys are just mad we didn’t use your old spec—which didn’t have transcripts.
I’m done arguing with you. We will continue on just fine.
im absolutely mad but it has nothing to do with me.
i'd be mad if you made a photos app and decided to use event kind 64 instad of 20, just because you wanted to add something that wasn't in the spec.
it's uneeded duplication of work and makes things harder for not only developers, but users too. nostr is confusing enough as it is with 6 different kinds of DMs. why do we need 2 different kinds of photos and 2 different kinds of voice messages?
Airchat is not the same thing as YakBak.
YakBak is a poor clone of Airchat that doesn’t have transcriptions.
you keep making this about you for some reason.
You’re the one who’s making it about you. I’m just trying to build this app in peace.
me: *makes half a dozen suggestions to work together to maintain interopoerabilty and compatability across 6 different apps*
you: *no im doing my own thing*
i am DEFINITELY making this all about me. yep.
These apps don’t have transcriptions. If we used that NIP, all the apps would hear Airchat posts without having transcriptions. That isn’t what Airchat is about, so we made a new NIP.
This about representing what Airchat is about, not me or anyone in particular. You never used Airchat and merely cloned it in a janky app, so you may not understand.
That's why they're different apps, they do things differently. Maybe other apps would have added support for the transcript tag, maybe they wouldn't but that's for them and their communities, no?
Others apps can add the Airchat NIP if they want to. Yes, that’s for them to decide.
Standards are different than apps. If we all make a standard then what's the point of even making it on nostr? Why not just use a private DB on a website and enable API access to your data?
i made several suggestions on how i felt that we could remedy this and work together. you told me you didn't want to each and every single time i tried to do so. i was very curteous and kind. i can't extend an olive branch forever. at some point you have to realize some people don't care about the things you care about and move on. good luck Colby!
Tell yourself whatever story you need to buddy 😂
Centralised backend .
