I feel like video hosting is the final boss that must be slayed. franzap (npub1wf4…dgh9)'s latest is very promising in that regard.

Now we just need a client that implements it, and better discovery tools for finding interesting videos.

The mind blowing part here is not my unix tool, it is showing that nostr is a practical decentralized alternative to Usenet NZBs (torrents are a different thing)

- Blossom servers do not need to store a whole large video file
- Blossom servers do not need to stream an entire large file
- Blossom operators have plausible deniability in terms of content as the segments are encrypted (and they may not have all) and they don't control the key

- Video clients now have mutiple failovers if a segment is stored in multiple servers
- There are bandwidth savings if the video is not watched entirely
- Content creators can exchange the AES key against a zap

Youtube, here we come.
