I have been working on a backup feature for nostr.build account holders for the past couple of days. Now I am in the testing phase. What that means is that you will be able to download all your media to your own computer or (in the future) ask us to mirror your media to the bucket of your choosing (any S3 provider) with the write only credentials. The backup will be available to ALL account holders regardless of their status (expired or unpaid). Once we complete that, we will give each expired account an additional grace period of one month (on top of one year you have today) where we will automatically backup your media, delete it from the serving edge, and keep your backup for 30 days. We do not want to delete your data without your permission and potentially causing you stress. 🫑

Thats what I got to understand now yes :) People often forget normies β€˜creatives’ don’t know about this things πŸ˜…πŸ€£ We are not all Devs on #nostr or at least some not πŸ€ͺ
Yep, backups are important, especially when you don’t need them. That is why all media uploads to nostr.build are duplicated to two object storage providers immediately, and the two providers are in different region too, so we can sleep well ourselves πŸ˜‚
Appreciate that- I've paid for an account a few months back, but I've taken to hosting my media on my own haven relay recently and I'd love to be able to transfer my media. I also wonder though, if there's a way to secure images and media we uploaded before buying a paid account?
Thank you so much for all the hard work! I love Nostr.Build I use it for all my webdev media hosting. I would love to be able to mirror the media to a blossom server one day!
