folderblog 0.2.7 is out: the folder that's your blog can now be a podcast too. Put episodes in podcast/ and it builds the show page, episode pages and a feed ready for Apple Podcasts and Podcasting 2.0 (guids, transcripts, chapters, people, Lightning tips). Audio goes to Cloudflare R2 on deploy, and folderblog mcp lets an AI agent draft and check episodes, publishing only after you say yes.

From the bench, a small Persistwise fix. If the page download for a new post failed, the post was marked failed and never retried, so it never got its IPFS copy. Now it tries again with longer waits in between, and if the saved file goes missing later, the pin step downloads it again. The Archive page got plainer too. Each copy shows a short status like "Wayback: trying again" or "IPFS: pinned", and a post only says archived once both copies exist.

Second call, and thanks to everyone who boosted the first one. I'm applying to OpenSats and the HRF Bitcoin Development Fund for six months of work on Omostrich, a Nostr signer that keeps your key on your own Linux PC. The plan is to make it run on any distro and let you pair your phone with it over normal relays, with no VPN needed. The grant would also keep relay.pleb.one free, updated and secure. It exists because of my first OpenSats grant, and it'll become a pairing relay for Omostrich. If you use relay.pleb.one, a short note to the funder about it would help a lot. DM me if you're up for it.

Omostrich 0.3.1 is out, a small security release. The bar panel no longer loads your profile picture straight from the web. The signer daemon fetches it with a 10 s timeout, a 1 MB cap, real image-type checks and a 2048×2048 limit, then shows a local copy. Attachment previews show your own file too.
