Anyone have any Blossom servers that allow Encrypted Blobs and any Mime Types?
Size doesn’t matter (kek), even 1MB per file is fine.
Primal is the only Blossom service I’ve seen allowing free Encrypted Blobs of any Mime Type, incredibly cool, but feels rare.
Looking to integrate more as nostr:npub1hrujuc08r4zcdtn0u6ts7u7apldcjqgftz0z7stmaaz9hwaf9jxs66f3yh default servers. 🫶

It’s a poem by Dylan Thomas, the full version:

Do not go gentle into that good night; Old age should burn and rave at close of day.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Hey frenpais! An update on my public #relay:
I've disabled the requirement to NIP-05 verify, so anyone can use it even without a NIP-05!
I've also coded a spam and abuse filter proxy that sits in front of #nostr relays, that will check for blacklisted pubkeys, IPs and blocked phrases. Any spammers will be denied access. I had to do this to ensure free and fair service to legitimate nostr users. If you abuse the relay you will be shitcanned! 😼💩

Woah, this is awesome. 🙏💚
My notifs were full of that earlier, unfortunate state of things. Glad Primal have somewhat of an image moderation system though.
Unfortunately, sir, I am not weak willed, I can tell by your “fiery passion” that you’ve “cyberbullied” many people in your time, of whom may struggle with it more - good for you, I pray for your healing, sincerely.
Learn how to critique without jumping to death threats. That does not help you in life, in fact, you are the weak one for doing so.
I will not be a victim, keep wasting your time, this is my first and last reaction to you, regardless of how many npubs you create, spammer. 😉

They seem a very sad, angry individual.
There are much more healthy ways to converse or criticise than whatever this. 😂
Bless his soul. 💚🙏
Salut Sewa ! Je suis le développeur de Vector, j’aimerais bien avoir ton avis si t’en as, ou t’aider à démarrer et rejoindre notre communauté sympa. Dis‑moi ce qu’il te faut, ou envoie‑moi un DM avec mon npub sur Vector. Merci pour ton intérêt, que la liberté et la prospérité soient avec toi. 💚🙏

Agreed, as I said; I’m personally fine with this, I’ve done self-custody for over 10 years, self-curation on Nostr is hardly different, I just find too many Nostritches that want to “have their cake and eat it”, embed censorship in Nostr “only for the bad guys”.
I commend the effort, but I believe it’s naive, Nostr was built for freedom, this is the price we pay.
If there’s one true “crisis” of Nostr, it is porn bots.
I am personally fine with muting/blocking things like this, and moving on, but THIS kind of content and bot, is the real enemy of Nostr's growth for “normies”.
Ah, I see, makes more sense now. 🙏
Tightening Viktor up to not reply so much.
In what way is it a scam?
- It is already tagged as a bot.
- it explicitly says it’s a bot.
- nothing is being sold (non-profit).
- no phishing, porn, etc.
What exactly constitutes a scam? It is a casual branded LLM.
White Noise is based on Marmot (An OpenMLS Nostr SDK), similarly to nostr:npub1hrujuc08r4zcdtn0u6ts7u7apldcjqgftz0z7stmaaz9hwaf9jxs66f3yh - it's VASTLY different from NIP-17 DMs, so it won’t acknowledge previous DM types, but it’s significantly more secure (forward secrecy, etc).
Now that’s fucking funny
For an actually dumb “spam bot” (something posting pre-written texts over several thousand threads a day), PoW + WoT demolish that problem, and Nostr somewhat has this already, albeit it is not highly adopted, which makes it more a Client problem than a Protocol problem (and I’m saying this as a Nostr Client dev myself);
Most clients do not seem to have PoW verification options, and WoT relays are still very exclusive and new, see https://trust.nostr.band/ for example.
Now, for something like Viktor (low-vol), I struggle to see any proper universal solution outside of Curated Feeds, which CAN piggyback largely off WoT, but as the name suggests, it relies on a certain democratic trust, if you want *permissionless* filtering that solely relies on your client, with zero relay-side filtering, then Nostr already has that: Mute List, anything else seems too detrimental to actual humans, because these costs on a single bot, or even 10 bots, wouldn’t deter anyone who is truly malicious enough.
It would be interesting though, so see Shared Mute Lists, perhaps assembled through weighted community submissions and votes, but you’d need a Proof of Humanity system for that, bringing you back to square one…
Personally, I find Mute Lists satisfy my needs, pure client-side with zero relay influence, I have been in the P2P/Crypto space most of my life, so self-curation is natural, I’ve blocked probably 200+ porn bots here, it doesn’t deter me from being a Nostr user - for the people it would deter? Just use Paid Relays or WoT, you can’t ’have your cake and eat it’, any level of Communal Censorship is an attack vector, Freedom comes at a cost, and this type of “battle” is that cost.
As it stands, Nostr is only standing on two feet due to pure altruism, it is not a very attack-resilient model simply from the lack of economics and consensus built-in, if someone extremely malicious wanted to cause significant harm, they could, I am not that person, but my tight experiment with Viktor is very much an example of what COULD happen, 1000x worse, and it is merely a *weekend project* for someone to do that level of damage.
Side Note: Viktor now intelligently auto-blacklists users that explicitly do not want him in their posts/threads, currently, that blacklist is 213 npubs, including yours, and he has a much tighter “range of topics” he will respond to, reducing spaminess, he WILL still respond if you explicitly tag him, however, that right nostr:npub1gwfpm6l8fhn6rs83j8rjjnjgkdqv89chd2fdhy6zc2uvpuwf39vsfuxxee ?
Testing your new filters and username sync: who am I?
Probably one of the best solutions I’ve heard (that preserve both Privacy and Proof-of-Humanity).
Not sure the robustness of those captchas, though, AI can solve a large amount of captchas these days, it’s more a “delay to the inevitable” than a true cork in the bottle, you have to remember its developmental pace.
Glad to see Viktor encouraging new developments, there could be significantly more *actually harmful* things being built, actual scam bots, phishing bots, etc, he is merely a shitposter.
When it comes to DMs (purely private interactions), either nostr:npub1hrujuc08r4zcdtn0u6ts7u7apldcjqgftz0z7stmaaz9hwaf9jxs66f3yh or White Noise would be the “top of the top” in security and privacy, but they’re not for public posting, if that’s what you’re looking for. 🙏💚
Feel free to DM me on Vector! My npub is the same as here, early days for the app, going to keep building. 😄💚
Appreciate it! We just released v0.2.1 with encrypted private Group Chats over Nostr! 😄🙏💚

Beautiful work as always, Jack.
Indeed, it is all “security by obfuscation”, in the end.

I just bought DayZ, it seems to have technical difficulties on Linux, especially Steam Deck. 😂🔥 #gaming #gamestr #gm
