You can in some clients.
It’s really just a POC to see if it’s possible and works ok.
With browser extension auth and an editor, it could be pretty minimal, but awesome.
Then it just needs to query for other posts and such.. some kind of index.. or kind 11000 can be an index JSON.
And needs better mobile support. I’ll fix now if easy..
Thanks for the Nostr blogging platforms recommend: blogstack.io and habla.news. Maybe network load, but neither loaded correctly for me.
The developer in me jumped ahead and built a minimal (proof of concept) single page blog UI that works for anyone. It certainly could use some improvements and ideally an editor. But it’s minimal and works ok.
Basically create an event in the 11,000-19,999 range and the identifier is your pubkey:kind.
Has anyone created a Nostr based blogging platform yet?
That could be. Was using 1.1.1.1 Warp.
Launching spy balloons should be the next gender reveal party craze.
16.3.1. I thought it could be network issue too, but other media is loading ok. Even after an app kill and reload.
Cool.
The image preview doesn’t load in Damus. Do you know if it’s void.cat headers or webp that’s the issue?

It’s just an open network where you can share freely. And you’re not ruled by corp giants and data theft.
Imaging running a social network people find boring? FAANG headed toward being Moden Pompeii by 2030.
I mention it mostly because the ‘impression’ metric is largely related to todays advertising business models.
At some point someone is going to want to try tracking impressions or a derivative and charging - ideally it’s unworkable and fails. Advertising is a burden on society.
And certainly Nostr will always be read biased. More likely 100-10000x as it grows.
I’m sure you can get some insights out of it for operations. Can even help with database optimisations around partitioning, indexes, etc.
However, if your looking to charge per event impression for example, it’s unreliable as a ‘event has been requested/viewed X times’ metric.
What kind of stuff are you looking to analyse?
You can use rust with Prometheus crate to collect data for Grafana which is cool.
I’m slowly adding more operational metrics, mostly to understand scaling, growth and performance. And monitor/detect malicious actors.
Just keep in mind subscription event result reads can be easily faked/spammed too.
One thing that’s about to crumble are the JavaScript social media like/share buttons embedded on webpages that tracked your every website visit - even after logging out.
Boy was that a trojan horse technique that didn’t get enough anger. People literally fed Facebook (and others) with their browser history freely.
