No, the hashes are not time stamped. They just give a unique identifier to the binary file they represent.

My dream for Nostr is that it becomes the best place for high-signal long form content. We’ll do everything we can from Primal to help make that happen, including building better creator tools and other infrastructure.
These types of starter packs might play a role.

Getting beyond the experimental stage and standing up a reliable service for real users is not a small lift. Guys from nostr.build have been the bedrock of Nostr - hosting most of the network’s media content. Consider supporting them by getting a paid plan.
As of Primal 2.2, you can set any Blossom service as your primary media hosting provider. In addition, you can set any number of Blossom mirrors to make your media content more resilient. I use Primal's Blossom service as my primary, and blossom.band as my mirror.

What if Nostr starter packs included recommended content, in addition to follows?
For example, a “Bitcoin 101” starter pack could include recommended:
- Follows
- Articles
- Podcasts
- Videos
Same can be applied to any topic: climbing, surfing, nutrition, etc. Nostr apps that support this would implement slick UX for users who get onboarded onto a new topic like this.

2025-05-02 14:46:23

Hey Primal users!
Now that everyone has upgraded to version 2.2, please let us know what you would like to see in the next release. Feel free to include feature requests, as well as fixes and small improvements that would make the product easier or more fun to use.

2025-05-02 12:21:29

This is big. Having a separate build for the U.S. App Store will suck, but hopefully Apple gets taken to court in more jurisdictions.

Primal advanced search queries are stored temporarily for search performance analysis and optimization reasons. We used to keep this data for 30 days. Today we reduced it to 48 hours. The queries do include the npub of the user requesting the query because search results are user-dependent.
Primal has no business interest in using this data beyond improving the product for our users.

Damus onboards everyone onto the same 4 relays, doesn’t support outbox nor blossom, yet you constantly larp about decentralization and lecture the rest of us about what a “real nostr client” client is. Hilarious.
Put your own house in order, then let’s talk.

I don’t think ross used primal to create his nostr account. if he did he would have had proper NIP65 relays set.

2025-04-30 21:12:11

- reply

I think we are further along outbox implementation than we are being given credit for:
1. When onboarding new users, Primal ensures that the default set of relays includes a combination of larger relays and “long tail” smaller relays. We are already contributing to the spread of content over the entire public relay infrastructure. In contrast, Damus uses the same 4 relays for all new users.
2. We leave relay hints in all user and event mentions, as well as “copy id” actions, so that outbox clients can find things.
3. By default, all Primal clients write directly to the outbox relays the user has specified.
Therefore, when it comes generating content on the network, Primal already does all the right things. Please correct me if I’m missing something.
What remains to be done is the ability to diversify ways of reading/discovering content. We can’t solely rely on the caching service; our clients need to be functional without it. We are working on it.
As for the “Primal isn’t a real Nostr client” claim, that's a bad look @nprofile…2ln2. Let’s focus on building. Damus still needs proper outbox and blossom support. Maybe that’s where energy is better spent instead of fudding another project.

2025-04-30 16:32:31

Primal Android users, we’ve got a big release for you!
Version 2.2 is now live, bringing long-awaited features like Amber signing support and much more. Here’s what’s new:

- Muted words, hashtags, & threads
- Request delete for notes and articles
- System photos: share via Primal
Please try it out and let us know your thoughts.

Fun fact: our latest iOS release got rejected by Apple 4 times yesterday 🤡
It was over mundane items, and in our view the reviewer didn’t understand their own guidelines. We got through it, but this delayed our release by one day.
This is a reminder that iOS developers don’t get to decide when / if they ship their products. Apple decides. That’s a problem.

Don’t want to see buzzbot-promoted notes in your Primal trending feeds? Simply mute the @nprofile…fmt5 account. You will still see notes that mention buzzbot in your regular feeds, but they will be removed from the trending feeds.
Interesting to see the feedback to my note below. It's about evenly distributed between hating and loving buzzbot, as well as being indifferent. Therefore, we decided to offer our users a choice.

Thanks, I appreciate the detailed reply. 🫡
> “paid engagement” posts a place to live SEPARATE FROM the Trending feeds
Sounds nice in theory, but the whole point of these engagement hacks is to show up in the main trending feed. They don't want a separate feed. They'll keep hacking until they make it to the main trending feed.
So my question still stands: how exactly do we identify good quality content? Our best approach so far is to measure engagement by real users (non-bots). I don't expect you to solve this for us, but ideas are welcome.
> label to bot posts or posts engaging in “paid engagement”
Good idea, if we can reliably identify paid engagement.
> give us a way to filter content out of our feeds
Yes, we are getting ready to deploy a feature to help with this.
Thanks again, keep the feedback coming!

Yes you can use Primal Premium without applying our NIP-05 verified name. You can leave that blank in your profile or use another Nostr verification service.

And yet, there are already over 1,000 active relays. Pretty wild.
Some are paid, most are free. There are multiple commercial Nostr projects with an incentive to run relays. Primal runs two: one fully open, one for our premium users. We also run an open-source indexer and caching service.
In my view, Nostr scales through a combination of the outbox model (a.k.a. gossip), caching layers, and eventually, p2p transfers between clients. Nostr doesn’t need to rely on a single transport protocol. Every signed event stands on its own. We’ll make many copies of signed events and find different ways to move them around.

Very cool. Haven't tried it yet; I'll take a look!

2025-04-19 16:26:12

I think we can make Nostr the best place to publish long form content.
There’s a lot of work ahead to make this happen, but it’s totally doable, and dare I say, inevitable.

Apologies for the crash on start in iOS. A fix will be included in the next build. In the meantime, anyone affected can get around it by uninstalling and re-installing the app (you won't need to re-login).
I am curious how many users were affected by this. If you were affected, please reply to this note.

That's a good suggestion.
Btw, top zaps on Primal respect mute lists. So, if either the note author or the end user have you muted, your zap won't appear in top zaps. Note authors can mute abusive users and keep their sats.

Thanks for the explanation.
My guess is that these reputable follower counts filter out *a lot* of real users. Remember, most people online are lurkers and don't post much content if any. Therefore they are not likely to be followed by reputable users.

2025-03-28 18:08:31

- reply

Great idea to show reputable followers!
Questions:
1. How do you determine if a follower is reputable? I presume it's based on WoT, but the question is, how exactly does somebody make the cut of being reputable?
2. How many real humans do you think you are missing in your reputable follower counts? For example, if somebody creates a new Nostr account today and follows you, they probably won't get included in the count, right? Do you have estimates on how many real users you are missing?
These are important topics; keep up the good work!
