Building tokstr.app

@nostr.build How about having people pay to retrieve content from you, instead of relying solely on others paying to upload? I was thinking about people who sell content. I can imagine mechanisms where split zaps could benefit creators and content storage providers. Has anything already been done in this regard?

Prototype of a TikTok clone on Nostr. Many many things to do. Those videos were already cached, that's why it's loading so fast. Still need to implement the load ahead feature, so we can change video fast. The goal is to maximize cheap dopamine and make you all hooked.

I'm not a front-end developer, but I would prefer apps to wait until the entire content of a post (pictures, npub names, other quoted events, etc.) has loaded before appearing on my feed. The perception of slowness makes Nostr feel like a trashy prototype.

I sense something big is coming related to Nostr. I have no idea what it is, but something is definitely coming.

Something I really want to stop this year is staying up all night coding. I did it so many times last year -- for personal projects, for the company I work for. I need to convince my brain to resist the urge. Sometimes, as I get close to something that feels like a solution, I become too obsessive about finding it. That for sure killed many days of my lifespan. And for what? Probably I could’ve managed to solve it in just one more day.

I'm working on a new version of my NIP (404), aiming to implement strong plausible deniability for features like Stories and other posts. These should be weakly tied, in a controlled way, to the user's real npub (even with OTP). This is a topic I really care about, so I’ve been wrestling with cryptography for the past two months to figure out a path. A more well-versed mind on this subject might have solved it in a few minutes, but I guess it is a good opportunity to learn new things. I hope I’ve addressed most of the issues pointed out by @PABLOF7z, @semisol, and @Mike Dilger ☑️

Question for Nostr developers: How many hours a day, on average, do you spend in front of a computer?

I'm a huge Elton John fan. That is it.
