does blossom do replication or distributed retrieval? I clicked through the link but couldn’t find any kind of spec.

That can be done out of band, doesn’t need to be on the spec; much like negentropy is useful but doesn’t need to be done via nostr nor speced within nostr.

nostr:npub1ye5ptcxfyyxl5vjvdjar2ua3f0hynkjzpx552mu5snj3qmx5pzjscpknpr talked about doing something similar to NIP-65 for blossom as well as the idea of creating a DVM market for “I want to find file with hash x and willing to pay y sats” which are two very useful building blocks of this system

so this is just another http media server?

Who remembers NIP-95? Blobs all the way! :)

I remember and still think blobs should be stored *not* in json encoded events. still think nostr:npub1xv6axulxcx6mce5mfvfzpsy89r4gee3zuknulm45cqqpmyw7680q5pxea6 ‘s original proposal from a year ago is fine. curious how blossom is different.

Blobs are not stored in json under blossom

Oh, sorry, you were reply to Vitor 😂

Now that some clients are putting base64 images directly inside the .content of kind 1s to go around the chinese firewall, NIP-95 is easy.

Which client?

I don't know. I just see the event with the massive base64 in it. It's becoming quite common.

I was just testing this yesterday, hoping to find that clients would render a data URL embedded in kind1 content. None of the clients I tested did, though.

Storing file hashes and content in events makes sense to me. If there are clients that support it I’d love to see what they’ve implemented. I was thinking of experimenting with it this week(end).

Some emoji images?

You have a typo, but yes, all men are into them big time!

Not me, I’m a newbie. What was in NIP-95?

#nostrdev

Seems similar. I really like some of the stuff in that one, particularly how the filename can be anything.
