“We would be unwise to assume that a rising generation of Russians will embrace a more democratic and pro-western outlook. We will be dealing with people shaped by failure, humiliation, repression and manipulation.”

Is there a similar nostr firehose somewhere?

When the Nostur sending note “hang” because of media server refusing the connection there was no way to revert back to the draft mode to resolve the issue (and not lose the note).
This one should work on 7.4 or higher:

only 2 php server requirements I haven’t been able to get rid of: ext-xml and ext-gmp. ext-xml shouldn’t be a problem, most WordPress hosting probably have this. ext-gmp I’m not sure, might be a problem for some hosts, it seems one of the schnorr libraries needs it.

The first two test uploads worked ( a gif and jpeg):

I got the GMP PHP extension error on one random sandbox test site but the other had the extension.
For some reason the WP admin backend does not show images. Could be a config issue but did not investigate further.
The npub only upload works, too. Nostur shares the media upload settings between accounts (don’t ask how I tested it 😂
“It’s also now the view of many in tech who realize that just as it was easier to start Bitcoin than to reform the Fed, it will actually be easier to start a new city than to reform San Francisco, and easier to start a new country than to reform the FDA.”
Some interesting metrics and learnings from Pebble
Pebble shuts down: “We grew from 6 users on the first day (Dec 9, 2022) to a community of 20k by October 2023. But we weren't growing fast enough justify additional investment.”
X marks the roadmap

Tried to use the plugin in a few sandbox wp sites but the php requirement is >8.10 and they were still running in the 7.X versions.
I like the Mastodon and Bsky way of delegating access tokens. Masto is really good with granularity.
Not sure how that can be done with the npub/nsec current structure if at all without breaking a lot of things.
They are called thoughts 😂
For the WP side a few management ideas before you have uploaded tons of media:
- set the uploads into a category for easier management later
- include as a meta-item the eventid to the media file (to find the OG note)
For both, I did not find a default place that is not going public (e.g. desc, alt text, caption etc).with the media file
I would love to choose per note basis when to post to wp self-hosting and when a regular (relay) hosting would do (probably a Nostur feature)
E.g. gif memes could go to the regular and OG content self-hosted for longevity.
Very early rough version of Nostr Media Uploads for WordPress:
https://github.com/fabianfabian/nostr-media
Host your images and media in your own WordPress installation using this plug-in.
Don’t use in production yet.
That was fast!
MetaNostr
Take the core modules of a Mastodon client and merge with a Nostr client to have a unified Meta-Client.
https://github.com/Dimillian/IceCubesApp (SwiftUI)
Graysky is React native bksy client: https://graysky.app/ if you want to add to the mix or use the ATproto repos.
I’m already splitting my iPad screen with different protocol clients. Why not merge them into one? A feed is a feed 🤙
