We should get Lex Fridman on Nostr and have him podcasting from zap.stream
Web of Trust should not be assumed to be web of follow. I agree. Also we trust different people for different things.
DM search is useful when you have thousands of messages and you want to find the best defending with your girlfriend in an argument. Yes, she told me to buy eggs and never mentioned milk. It’s not my fault.
To search DM, the logic is already there. It's just a design problem. I don't know where to put the search box.
Sadly, DM can not be searched at the moment. Only kind-1. So, you can search through 100K to 200K kind-1s in like 100ms
They did not even bother to start with NRC-1. Jump right to 20th. Very eth.
https://blowater.app now loads roughly 40% faster.
Loading half a million events takes about 17s on a 7 years old laptop. Used to take 30s.
The goal is to handle 1 million events without any noticeable friction.
nostr:npub1nllxsheh5hpy55rkmkt46lee4m8tk05g8fmp7nf0mu7hhcz3qc4s7m2vsn is now my favorite content creator on nostr. For some reason I use this npub to debug LOL
I am aware of this and I am writing code to take advantage these "mistakes", so worry not
search is now 3X faster on https://blowater.app, saving roughly 100ms per key stroke
nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s will you implement “fail to send” notification so that I know the network isn’t working?
Did my last note get dropped?
The worst part of web platform for a Nostr client is that IndexedDB is slow as hell.
The goal of Blowater is to handle 1 million events on a 10-years old laptop without any noticeable slowness. A user connected to 10 relays can reach 1 million events in 2 weeks.
An auto local deletion algorithm is also inevitable to save disk storage.
2GB should be a good threshold for how many data Blowater stores locally.
Maybe Blowater will eventually abandon the web platform. But this is not the day.
Test
Next week, you will be able to
deno run --allow-net https://my-cdn/relayed.ts
to run your own relay.
The only thing you need is Deno
No compilation from source, no 3rd party database setup, no "install pacakges"
Stay tuned and make small relays great for the first time.

Read / Write policy per kind has been implemented with allow/block list
Creativity is the worst thing you can have in a horde of mediocre people
