It’s been two weeks now that this has been live on the main nostr.wine relay. Any clients/users noticed any issues? View quoted note →

Today’s nukening is a reminder that performance > long term note retention for most relays. This is how it should be. Do not expect long term storage from your public relay operators. 

If your note history is important to you - backup your notes regularly! If you want others to be able to view your vintage notes long in to the future, use a special purpose relay like

Add Cellar Balance 🍷

or run your own!

Direct Message (kind 4) metadata protection is live on all of our 🍷 nostr.wine regional relays! DMs can now only be requested by the author or the intended recipient. If your client doesn’t currently support NIP-42, you can no longer access DMs on the nostr.wine relay. You will not lose access to anything else. View quoted note →

Playing with note topic/language classification again 👀

Awesome! We just updated njump.nostr.wine to the latest version as well. Keep up the good work. View quoted note →

Here is a very brief video demo of Creatr, our new Patreon-style relay + file host for creators. Lots more to come and many other features to share, but wanted to get something out so you can see how it works with a nostr client and browser extension.

If you are a Content Creator of any kind and would like to participate in the closed beta of our Patreon/OnlyFans relay, send me a DM! Creators can create subscription tiers with different perks and post notes with content assigned to a specific tier. Supporters can subscribe to a Creator at different levels and unlock access to their exclusive content on our relay. Creators are also able to generate PPV links for any files hosted through our file host to share with their fans. Creators and Supporters will be able to access the relay from ANY nostr client that supports NIP-42 authentication.

🚨 10 DAY ALERT 🚨 We are going to start requiring NIP-42 AUTH to access DMs on all nostr.wine relays on November 13th. If your client doesn’t currently support NIP-42, you will ONLY lose access to DMs and nothing else. View quoted note →

We would like to start onboarding our initial Creators for a closed beta on our new patreon style relay. Content creators will be able to create subscription tiers and associate notes/content with a tier. Those notes will only be shared with their subscribers at or above that tier. We will also be able to serve PPV content on behalf of our creators. The relay can be accessed from any nostr client! If you are a content creator of any kind and interested in monetizing through subscriptions and PPV content on nostr - send me a DM!

Put more simply: you will only be able to request DMs sent by you or sent to you. This is a first step towards improving metadata privacy for direct messages. View quoted note →

All nostr.wine relays will start enforcing NIP-42 AUTH for DM REQs (kind 4) soon. If your client does not support NIP-42, everything else will still work normally but you will not believe able to receive DMs through our relays.
