Hey #nostrdev - before I start writing my own, is there a SSR web client for #Nostr that will just read from a single relay?

I’m experimenting with a usage model that’s a bit more like old offline forum/BBS/news readers, or scuttlebutt, where you download the content you want, then can peruse it later, offline. Then you can favorite, reply, post, etc., and sync it back to other relays when you’re back online.

But it seems most clients are very ā€œweb 2.0ā€ and want to reach out to multiple relays client-side to pull everything together.

Basically I want something like njump.me but more focused on being a ā€œfeedā€ with some client functionality rather than a lookup tool.

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

#nostrdev

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).

Me, as my time off of work comes to an end.

Ok following #nostr is pointless because people just tag it on everything because… they’re posting to Nostr? They want more reach? šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø

Is there another tag that’s less spammy? I propose #nostrdev if one doesn’t exist already.

I’ve definitely come across ā€œobsceneā€ content. If you browse a live stream of what random people are posting to relays, it’s there.

Worse, most clients seem to download media by default. Since media is stored on third-party http servers, your browser has to make a DNS request for the server and open up a connection to fetch it.

If that content is illegal in your location … well, hope your ISP doesn’t have enough info to turn you in. šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø

#nostr notes have a created_at ā€œunix timestampā€. I assume that’s in UTC?

Is there a way for a client to add a user’s time zone offset? That would allow clients to optionally display times in that user’s local time zone.

Sometimes that context matters.

Ex: If someone posts about their morning/evening, it’s useful to know what time they were talking about it. ā€œCan’t wait till lunch break.ā€ Is it 11am or 7am there?

Picked up #Helldivers2 this week after hearing good things. I’m not big on shooters but I’m enjoying it.

The over-the-top propaganda and militarization also plays into gameplay mechanics. The people are almost more expendable than the military ā€œtoysā€. When you die, you respawn into the game as a new recruit. But calling for that machine gun is still on cooldown, so you’d better go pick one up from where that previous soldier (you) died. 😬

The community is friendly though. Probably because it’s PvE and not PvP. Though, friendly fire is enabled. I’m surprised I haven’t seen more griefers.

Thanks! I never would’ve guessed it was under *edit*, since you can’t edit your private key.

Ok, I give up. How do I get my secret key out of the Nostur iOS app?

Er, NIP-5. I had too many tabs open. šŸ˜…

Woo, got my NIP-19 checkmark. āœ…

FWIW my FeoBlog implementation dealt with both by only accepting content signed by people who were explicitly allowed on that server, or followed by one of those people.

Are there Nostr relay implementations that can do something similar?
